Abstract

The article focuses on a legal dispute between the U.S. Justice Department and the Federal Reserve regarding subpoenas related to cost overruns in the Fed’s $2.5 billion headquarters renovation. U.S. District Chief Judge James Boasberg upheld his earlier decision to quash grand jury subpoenas issued by U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, citing a lack of evidence of fraud. The Justice Department plans to appeal, arguing that the ruling limits prosecutors’ ability to investigate. The case raises questions about the Federal Reserve’s independence and has implications for the confirmation of President Donald Trump’s Fed chair nominee, Kevin Warsh. [Extracted from the article]
