#鲍威尔发言 Clash at the Peak of Power: Trump's Interest Rate Cut Command and Powell's Life-and-Death Game

In the early hours of today, the Federal Reserve announced: interest rates remain unchanged. This marks their fourth consecutive time of 'holding firm'. On the surface, everything seems normal, but beneath the surface, the confrontation between Trump and Federal Reserve Chairman Powell is nearly sparking fire.

1. Trump Tightens the Noose, Powell Rarely Strikes Back

In the past six months, Trump has publicly demanded almost every month: 'Hurry up and cut interest rates!' Just last week, he even directly asked for a 'full one percentage point cut'. However, Powell did not remain silent this time; he unprecedentedly pointed out that the new tariffs are the 'real culprit' behind rising prices, and ordinary families will ultimately foot the bill.

I carefully reviewed the data: in May, U.S. tariff revenue soared to $23 billion. Prices for computers, electronics, and other daily necessities are already rising. Powell clearly stated: 'This money will eventually be passed on to consumers'—this statement is almost a direct challenge to Trump's policies.
