On Friday, the Department of Justice served the Federal Reserve with grand jury subpoenas, threatening a criminal indictment related to my testimony before the Senate Banking Committee last June. That testimony concerned in part a multi-year project to renovate historic Federal Reserve office buildings.
I have deep respect for the rule of law and for accountability in our democracy. No oneโcertainly not the chair of the Federal Reserveโis above the law. But this unprecedented action should be seen in the broader context of the administrationโs threats and ongoing pressure.
This new threat is not about my testimony last June or about the renovation of the Federal Reserve buildings. It is not about Congressโs oversight role; the Fed through testimony and other public disclosures made every effort to keep Congress informed about the renovation project. Those are pretexts. The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the President.
This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditionsโor whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation.

โWell, Adrian, Iโm speaking to you as a former central bank economist, so Iโve been involved in this game for quite some time. And as you point out, itโs typically economies that are much less well run than the United States get involved in this sort of stuff. I mean, authoritarian leaders from Nero to Lenin, from Hitler to Henry VIII have always tried to interfere with who prints the money, who gets to print the money, and at what price.
Now, if you really look at this particular issue, itโs all about who gets to set the growth rate of the American economy. Is it the Federal Reserve or is it the president? This is in effect whatโs going on.
Typically, it is the Federal Reserve that gets to set the growth rate. It says the growth rate consistent with the low rate of inflation is going to be X, and we are going to derive our monetary policy and our rate of interest according to that. So in effect, if you look at politicians are always wanting to push their foot down on the accelerator.
More growth, more election success, more people feeling good in the very short term.โ

At least five Palestinian people have been killed in Gaza as a fierce winter storm toppled buildings damaged by Israeli attacks in its genocidal war on the territory, local health officials said.
Dangerous living conditions persist in Gaza after more than two years of devastating Israeli bombardment and aid shortfalls. A ceasefire has been in effect since October 10. But aid groups say that Palestinians broadly lack the shelter necessary to withstand frequent winter storms.
The people who died in Tuesdayโs stormy conditions include two women, a girl and a man, according to al-Shifa Hospital, Gaza Cityโs largest, which received their bodies.
There were also reports of several other deaths of children and the elderly due to the cold weather.
The Gaza Health Ministry said on Tuesday that a one-year-old boy died of hypothermia overnight.
Two other children had died on Monday night due to the freezing conditions and inadequate shelter, Al Jazeera Arabic reported.
๐ฅ Gaza tries to bury its dead: Some bodies in makeshift graves moved to cemeteries
Al Jazeera English | Jan 14, 2026
For months, families in Gaza were forced to bury their loved ones wherever they could amid the chaos of war. Now with a ceasefire in place, Civil Defence teams are stepping in to recover at least 50 bodies and transfer them to cemeteries, giving families a proper place to mourn.
Home alone,

The United States government has begun marketing Venezuelan crude oil in the global marketplace for the benefit of the United States, Venezuela, and our allies. We have engaged the worldโs leading commodity marketers and key banks to execute and provide financial support for these crude oil and crude products sales.
All proceeds from the sale of Venezuelan crude oil and oil products will first settle in U.S. controlled accounts at globally recognized banks to guarantee the legitimacy and integrity of the ultimate distribution of proceeds.
These funds will be disbursed for the benefit of the American people and the Venezuelan people at the discretion of the U.S. government. These oil sales begin immediately with the anticipated sale of approximately 30 โ 50 million barrels. They will continue indefinitely.
The only oil transported in and out of Venezuela will be through legitimate and authorized channels consistent with U.S. law and national security.

You got another one out, even though you're so busy, and it's heart wrenching as always, Najwan.
These truths need to be known.
I don't think Trump and his cronies have any control over Venezuela's oil at this point, no matter Trump's delusional rants. I just hope Maduro and his wife are returned to their country safe and sound.
And Gaza, OMG, I still can't imagine: hypothermia, starvation and all the other cruelty and destruction that just continues, continues...
Take care, my dear friend, and sleep well. We're over the hump, and I hope you get some downtime.
