If u want a good laugh, look up "fed reserve pow questions April 4/2025" They were the oddest questions I have ever heard. These two reporters were firing off the weirdest, out of pocket questions. Also, a funny slip up at the end.

Yeah he always says the same: "FED is separate from the GOV, I do not comment on nonFED things," Reporters just want a headline ig. They tripped him up at the last 2min or so, go watch it it will be a top 10 blooper of 2025 imo
