Sen. Thom Tillis Pledges to Withhold Support from Any Trump Nominee to the Fed Until the Investigation into Jerome Powell Is Terminated

EXCERPT:

TILLIS: “I will not allow any board member for the Federal Reserve to go through the Banking Committee, for chair or for replacement of expired terms, until this matter is settled. I have no problem with us having an investigation, like we should with so many other areas of government. I’d like to have oversight for the East Wing construction to make sure that that stays on target and doesn’t go over budget. I’d like to have oversight into the outfit of the Qatari 747 as the new Air Force One, kind of Air Force Light, because you can’t take it out the United States. All of those or taxpayer dollars being spent and we should have visibility into that.”
