AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
President Donald Trump on Thursday sharply criticized Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, urging the central bank to lower interest rates and saying Powell’s “termination cannot come soon enough.”
It was not clear whether Trump’s comments indicated a desire to remove Powell from his position or an eagerness for the completion of Powell’s term as Fed chair in 2026. The Fed is an independent government agency established by Congress.
