Leavitt on DOJ Ending Powell Probe: ‘The Case Is Not Necessarily Dropped, It’s Just Being Moved Over to the Inspector General’

EXCERPT:

LEAVITT: “As you saw, Judge Jeanine Pirro — or former Judge Jeanine, U.S. Attorney Jeanine now, put out a statement saying that the case is not necessarily dropped, it’s just being moved over to the Inspector General, who has critical tools at their disposal to continue to look into the financial mismanagement at the Fed. This has obviously been a priority for the president. If you drive by the Fed building, the president has a point. This is a project that’s been going on for a very long time. It’s costing taxpayers billions of dollars and I think it’s in the best interest of the taxpayer to get to the bottom of it. So, the investigation still continues. It’s just under a different authority and that’s what you’ll continue to see.”
