The Biden administration has no power to alter Fed policy, nor does any other administration.

Do you really believe that?

Yes.

Almost every administration has advocated for easy money, including the Trump presidency, but the Fed tends to turn a deaf ear.

The only direct action that a President can take is to fire a governor for cause. This has never happened because the reality is that doing so would blow up the Fed’s credibility and lead to a run on the dollar.
