Heard from a friend that the rumors in the DC fundraising circles are that the Biden team wants to shake up some chairs/cabinet positions in the finance sector to take the heat for the economy before the next election.
Yellen tops the list.
According to Cochran’s words, there had been some rumors regarding former US President Joe Biden and his party’s insistence on a drastic reorganization of some cabinet positions in the finance sector “to take the heat for the economy before the next election”.
Cochran’s tweets highlighted various names that were mentioned to be on the reforming list. He pointed out that the SEC Chairperson Gary Gensler has been mentioned by many “big-ticket donors, as they were “embarrassed” by his approach, despite some considerations on his stance on crypto.
Over the past few months, the SEC, under the guidance of Gensler has been troubling the whole crypto sector with a series of lawsuits against the leading crypto exchanges and cryptocurrencies. The Federal Reserve’s interest hikes over the past few months have also injected trouble into the economy. Yellen’s doggedness on stringent crypto regulations has been a major crisis in the US crypto market in recent months.
The executive commented that though both Gensler and Yellen tried to imitate Elizabeth Warren, the US Senator, they brought down “the hammer too hard for even their own party”. He further pointed out his assumptions that both Powell and Yellen “would be on the chopping block”. Shedding light on Gensler’s lack of professionalism, Cochran asserted that the absurdity of his approach would be a major reason for his possible dethronement.
However, Cochran posited that the restructuring of the finance sector could be a mere rumor, adding:
Of course, we always get these types of rumors and strategy talks before a re-election, so hard to say what weight it holds, but its clear that their most connected donors are starting to talk.
Finally, Cochran noted that “Powel is my [his] personal thought”, pointing out that more conversations occur about the deposition of Yellen and Gensler. Many of Cochran’s followers shared their optimistic view of Powell, commenting that he is the less harmful out of the others mentioned.
