Constitutional Crisis? Powell Accuses DOJ of Using Criminal Charges to Force Interest Rate Cuts
In an unprecedented move, Fed Chair Jerome Powell warned that the U.S. central bank is under siege. In a video statement released January 11, 2026, Powell revealed the DOJ served the Fed with grand jury subpoenas, threatening a criminal indictment.
The Breakdown
The Official Probe: The DOJ is investigating whether Powell gave "misleading testimony" to Congress regarding the $2.5 billion renovation of the Fed’s headquarters.
Powell’s Counter-Claim: He explicitly called the investigation a "pretext" designed to intimidate the Fed into lowering interest rates, as President Trump has demanded.
The Stand: Powell stated he will not let political pressure dictate monetary policy, asserting that "public service sometimes requires standing firm in the face of threats."
Why It Matters
This isn't just a legal spat; it’s a Constitutional showdown. Since the 1950s, the Fed has operated independently of the White House to prevent political cycles from causing runaway inflation. If the DOJ uses criminal charges to sway rate decisions, that independence effectively ends.
"This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence... or whether monetary policy will be directed by political pressure." — Jerome Powell

BINANCE SQUARE ALERT: TRUMP'S "CHIPOCALYPSE NOW" SPARKS FIERY DEBATE! 🚨
President Donald Trump is stoking controversy with an AI-generated "Apocalypse Now"-style image depicting a fiery Chicago, emblazoned with "Chipocalypse Now." His provocative caption, "I love the smell of deportations in the morning. Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR," has ignited a storm of criticism! 🚁🔥
This explosive post follows his executive order to rename the Department of Defense the "Department of War" – a move that demands Congressional approval.
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker didn't hold back, slamming Trump's rhetoric as dangerous and labeling him a "wannabe dictator." Pritzker stated, "The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal." Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson echoed these concerns, emphasizing that such threats undermine constitutional norms and city sovereignty. 🏙️🗣️
Legal experts are warning that this aggressive stance could be a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act, which restricts the military's involvement in domestic law enforcement. Recent deployments by the Justice Department in D.C. and National Guard actions in Los Angeles are already facing legal challenges. ⚖️
This dramatic move fits a pattern: Trump has previously deployed federal and Guard units to Democratic-led cities, citing crime and immigration concerns, even as crime rates have reportedly declined in many of these areas.
What are your thoughts on this escalating rhetoric? Let us know in the comments! 👇
