$XRP 🚨🇺🇸 Things just got REAL in the U.S. power corridors…
For the first time ever, Fed Chair Jerome Powell is pushing back publicly — and markets felt it instantly.
For nearly 12 months, Powell stayed quiet while President Trump repeatedly criticized the Fed. Every time he was asked, his answer was the same:
“I have no response or comment.”
🔴 Today, that silence broke.
Facing a new criminal probe by federal prosecutors, Powell stated that the threat appears to be a consequence of not aligning with the President’s preferences. That single remark was enough to shake markets.
📉 Stock futures dropped over 0.5% immediately after his comments.
This is happening right as:
The Fed is expected to PAUSE rate cuts again on January 28
Powell has around 6 months left as Fed Chair
Pressure on Fed independence is clearly escalating
Powell seems to be drawing a line in the sand — defending the Fed’s independence instead of staying neutral.
⚔️ Trump vs Powell = volatility ahead
And we all know what volatility often means for crypto 👀
