President Trump Engages in Undisclosed Calls with Fed Chair Warsh
President Trump has reportedly engaged in multiple undisclosed phone calls with Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh since Warsh's confirmation in May 2026. These calls come at a sensitive time for the Fed, as Warsh's recent press conference led to a bond sell-off, raising questions about the Fed's commitment to controlling inflation. The calls have been characterized differently by various sources, with some suggesting they are part of Trump's broader influence on the Fed's policymaking. The White House has not disputed the calls, emphasizing Trump's respect for the Fed's independence while acknowledging his right to express his views.
