that's a bridge too far for the financially astute white collar criminals--like mittens--in the GOPee.

Don't f*ck with their $$$.

Who told Trump to nominate her? I'm guessing it was the gold mining people. No way she belonged on the Fed. Thin resume, weird ideas. And totally political. Reversed positions to support Republicans. She'd be a good yes man on a Board of Directors. Total stooge.

Excellent that Ms. Harris is throwing her weight in the right places, and also that the country is spared this loon having even a pinky in America's monetary policies.
