Trump's Marble Controversy in Fed Renovation Raises Political Tensions

Reported about 23 hours ago

The Trump administration's involvement in the $2.5 billion renovation of the Federal Reserve's headquarters has led to political contention, particularly regarding the decision to incorporate more marble finishes, which Trump appointees advocated for. Despite trying to use the renovation to discredit Fed Chair Jerome Powell, the extensive marble use stems from Trump's own policies. As the White House critiqued the project as extravagance, scrutiny over the renovation's costs grows, with potential implications for Powell's job security amid concerns about the Fed's independence from political influence.
