Fed Chair Kevin Warsh won't say who paid him $100 million days before taking office
A Newsweek clip shows Sen. Elizabeth Warren questioning Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh at a Senate Banking Committee hearing about a check for more than $100 million he received days before entering office, tied to his required divestiture of holdings in the Juggernaut Funds and THSDFS LLC. Warsh declined to identify who paid him, instead citing his compliance with the Office of Government Ethics. Warren specifically asked whether billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller, with whom Warsh has a decade-long financial relationship, provided the funds; Warsh did not answer that question either. The exchange is corroborated by the official Senate Banking Committee record and C-SPAN's video of the hearing.
