From Epstein to sock puppets: Key takeaways from confirmation hearing of Trump's Fed chair pick

Kevin Warsh, Donald Trump’s pick for Federal Reserve chairman, faced a contentious Senate confirmation hearing where Democratic senators including Elizabeth Warren accused him of being Trump’s 'sock puppet' to lower interest rates and questioned his potential links to Jeffrey Epstein. Warsh denied the claims, vowed to uphold Fed independence, proposed 'regime change' at the Fed including overhauling inflation measurement, and Republican Senator Thom Tillis is blocking his confirmation until an inquiry into outgoing chair Jerome Powell is dropped.
