U.S. Attorney for the District of Washington DC, Jeanine Pirro, goes public explaining the backstory of the DOJ reviewing the Federal Reserve Board and Chairman Jerome Powell.
As noted by USAO Pirro, Chairman Powell refused to respond to questions for two months despite three repeated requests. The DOJ was then forced to issue a subpoena to get a response. Again, Powell never responded; instead, he went to the media to claim he was being politically targeted. WATCH:
During an interview in Detroit with “CBS Evening News” anchor Tony Dokoupil, President Trump responded to the accusation that his success in foreign policy is distracting the administration from focusing on domestic policy objectives.
To be clear, I do not assess any reasonable credibility to this type of claim. Factually, the closed border, growth in real wages, containment of inflation, use of tariffs to change corporate behavior to benefit Main Street, expanded growth in GPD and American manufacturing, the shrinking of the trade deficit, a smaller budget deficit, ongoing ICE operations and deportation goals, etc. are all happening at the same time President Trump is delivering on foreign policy issues that tie into all the above. Economic Security is National Security.
Yes, the Dept of Justice under Pam Bondi, and the FBI under Kash Patel, is not performing at the same level of skill and urgency as other cabinet heads. This is frustrating. That said, Bondi and Patel also took over these two agencies following a decade of work by Barack Obama, Eric Holder and their allied Lawfare operation, and they never forcefully took the public position to emphasize the corrupt nature of the institutions they lead. On the domestic agenda DOJ and FBI are the weakest links; they are also the institutions closest to the DC UniParty operation.
That said, nothing about this issue will change as long as Chief of Staff Susie Wiles is setting the day-to-day agenda. However, I have been told this message has penetrated the membrane constructed around the Oval Office. Approximately ten days ago, President Trump became aware of scale and scope of the MAGA frustration. This background is most likely the reason Wiles was unable to block Tucker Carlson’s White House visit on the day of the oil executive roundtable.
President Trump responds to Dokoupil, asking the question about Susie Wiles foreign policy creating a lack of focus on the domestic agenda at 02:11 of the video below (prompted):
President Trump’s impromptu remarks from inside the Ford F150 plant will probably not make headline news because, well, quite frankly, what President Trump says below is something the financial media just don’t want to discuss.
This is really an important point. In the era where information is skewed based on the interests of the organization sharing the information, government or private sector media, it is extremely valuable to just listen to what President Trump says directly. In comments such as this brief segment below, you can see exactly where he is going with manufacturing and trade policy.
Specifically pay attention to how President Trump emphasizes, then reemphasizes the irrelevance of the USMCA from his perspective. As we have noted all along, the Trump administration (USTR Greer) will abandon the trilateral USMCA this year and instead begin a formal process for two bilateral free trade agreements.
Now, the entire financial media system is pretending this is not going to happen, especially in the statements by every stakeholder north of the border. However, listen to how President Trump himself describes the USMCA or CUSMA as the Snow Mexicans like to call it. Trump is completely nonplussed about what is going to happen. WATCH:
President Donald Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem have announced the end of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali immigrants. The change comes as massive fraud is currently being investigated by multiple agencies of the U.S. government following discoveries in the Minnesota region.

Somali migrants with TPS will be required to leave the country by March 17.

Scott Adams, a beloved cartoonist, author and influential voice within the larger Trump community passed away today after a hard-fought battle with prostate cancer, he was 68 years old.
His ex-wife Shelly Adams confirmed his death, saying he had been receiving hospice care for the past several weeks. Scott Adams announced in May 2025, that he had aggressive prostate cancer and that he probably had only a few months to live.
(NYT) – Scott Raymond Adams was born on June 8, 1957, in Windham, N.Y., in the Catskill Mountains. His father, Paul, was a postal worker. His mother, Virginia (Vining) Adams, was a real estate broker and an assembly-line worker. In a quiet household where Scott was the middle child, he was a wisecracker. (read more)
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett appears on CNBC to discuss the current status of the Trump economy. Obviously, the first question to Hassett surrounds the announcement by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell that he is under a grand jury investigation.
Director Hassett rightly notes the DOJ is independently investigating the issues of Powell as a result of both a Senate Banking Committee (Tim Scott) and House criminal referral for misleading and false testimony related to the construction of the FED building in Washington DC. Both the decisions by the Federal Reserve and the Dept of Justice are not outcomes of President Trump’s decision making. Secondly, Hassett is considered a candidate to replace Powell in May, so it would be inappropriate for him to make any comments. WATCH:
Regardless of how you feel about the Federal Reserve Board, I think we would all agree the construct of an autonomous central bank is outside the boundaries of our constitutional framework. Factually, the Sea Island financial group set up the Federal Reserve as a system of control over the U.S. economy that was completely unnecessary.
That same ultra-constitutional mindset of omnipotent power permeates the recent statements by FED Chair Jerome Powell, who now attempts to evade a Dept of Justice investigation by hiding behind the ruse of his non-elected office.
Last year, facing ridiculous cost overruns, Congress questioned Powell over the insane spending proposal by Powell for a new office building. Chairman Powell characterized the construction changes, that escalated the cost of the project from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion, as ‘minor modifications.’ That’s $2.5 billions of taxpayer money.
In an effort to both use his office as a defense, and simultaneously weaponize the power of his position, Jerome Powell waits until Sunday evening to announce he is being investigated by the DOJ [SEE HERE], and then he claims it is political targeting.
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.
Dept of Homeland Security Secretary Kirsti Noem appears on CNN to discuss the Minneapolis ICE shooting and the “domestic terrorism” that is taking place against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.
Within the interview Secretary Noem emphasizes the activists working to disrupt federal ICE officials are conducting domestic terrorist operations. The leftist media are going bananas over Noem’s description of the anarchists’ activity.

Secretary Noem also appeared on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo to answer questions about threats of impeachment.
