C\u2019est une victoire d’\u00e9tape non n\u00e9gligeable pour la R\u00e9serve f\u00e9d\u00e9rale. La banque centrale am\u00e9ricaine ne devra pas r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 des citations \u00e0 compara\u00eetre que lui avait envoy\u00e9 le D\u00e9partement de la Justice (DoJ) mi-janvier concernant les surco\u00fbts de la r\u00e9novation de deux b\u00e2timents \u00e0 Washington. Un juge a annul\u00e9 cette proc\u00e9dure, estimant qu\u2019elle ne visait qu\u2019\u00e0 \u00abharceler\u00bb le pr\u00e9sident de la Fed, Jerome Powell, dans une d\u00e9cision rendue publique vendredi. L\u2019administration avait ouvert une enqu\u00eate p\u00e9nale dans ce dossier, laissant entendre que ce dernier avait peut-\u00eatre menti sur la facture de ces chantiers lors d\u2019une audition au Congr\u00e8s, en juin. La procureure f\u00e9d\u00e9rale qui m\u00e8ne cette enqu\u00eate a d\u00e9j\u00e0 annonc\u00e9 son intention de faire appel de cette annulation.<\/p>\n
\u00abL\u2019objectif principal (sinon unique) de ces assignations \u00e0 compara\u00eetre est de harceler et de faire pression sur Powell pour qu\u2019il c\u00e8de aux exigences du pr\u00e9sident ou qu\u2019il d\u00e9missionne afin de laisser la place \u00e0 un pr\u00e9sident de la Fed qui, lui, s\u2019y pliera. \u00bb C\u2019est ainsi qu\u2019un juge a justifi\u00e9 sa d\u00e9cision d\u2019annuler ces deux citations \u00e0 compara\u00eetre, s\u2019appuyant selon lui sur de \u00abnombreuses preuves\u00bb, d\u00e9taille le Wall Street Journal<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"C\u2019est une victoire d’\u00e9tape non n\u00e9gligeable pour la R\u00e9serve f\u00e9d\u00e9rale.
