A federal prosecutor admitted under oath that the Department of Justice had no evidence of criminal misconduct by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, undercutting the Trump administration's criminal investigation into a $2.5 billion renovation of the Fed's headquarters. Chief Judge James Boasberg quashed the investigation's grand jury subpoenas, writing that the probe's purpose was to "harass and pressure Powell" into cutting interest rates or resigning — not to investigate actual wrongdoing.
