Sen. Thom Tillis said Friday that he will oppose President Donald Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve chair until the criminal probe of the current Chair Jerome Powell is “fully” resolved.
“Protecting the independence of the Federal Reserve from political interference or legal intimidation is non-negotiable,” the North Carolina Republican said in a statement on X.
Tillis, who is set to retire, vowed earlier this month to oppose any new nominee for the Fed until the Department of Justice’s controversial investigation of Powell is completed.
Tillis is a member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, which has 13 Republicans and 11 Democrats.
The refusal of a single Republican on that panel to vote for a presidential nominee would set up a stalemate that could leave Warsh’s nomination without a recommendation of approval by the full Senate.

He’s a MORON!
It’s getting embarrassing
This DB is showing his true colors!!
Why do unelected banksters get to run our financial system?
Why is this lame duck POS on any committees?
Follow the money. I’m getting a hunch where his next meal is coming from.
He’s been an EMBARRASSMENT for a long time.
I should have voted for Kay Hagan way back when. I almost did.
Thillis is Big Money all the way. He is absolutely not to be trusted.
How much is this Tillis idiot on the take for? What is his net worth? How much has it increased in the last 5 yearrs?
Tillis another argument for repealing the 17th Amendment!
Thune just needs to remove him from the committee. Problem solved.
That would require Thune to step up. I haven’t seen much of that. He seems to specialize in doing the minimum MAGA and the max business as usual.
.
To protect their assets and interests, while fleecing/undermining ours?
"pay no attention to the man behind the curtain"
"it's a big small club and you ain't in it"
Sooner this guy is gone the better... 1 more year of this nonsense.
He’s been awkward/RINO for a long time.
He’s not a moron, he is an enemy. Always has been.
You’re right and Tillis is dead Wrong.
Congress can change that law whenever and nowhere does the Federal Reserve appear in any of your exalted founding documents
But they wont do anything sadly. Probably not until it’s too late and collapsing with the currency (dollar)
Sad times. I liken it to watching a car crash in slow motion.
