Police cars revolving lightBREAKING: Judy Shelton’s nomination to serve on the Federal Reserve has been stalled after VP-elect Kamala Harris’s major vote in the Senate. The final vote was 47-50, a major defeat for Trump.

With Mark Kelly being confirmed in the Senate in a few weeks and three GOP Senators against her confirmation, it is now extremely unlikely that Judy Shelton will join the Federal Reserve.

18. McConnell can bring her nomination back again when Covid Republicans are back.

McConnell is evil enough to not care how many incompetent people he puts on the courts or in a long-term position that could help wreck the FED.

4. I CALLED IT!!!

Senate Repukes love Trump ... but they love $$$ more.

Putting a whackadoodle on the Fed Reserve Board was a bridge too far for them.

Bigwig donors probably called and said ... ummmm ... no.

There's politics ... and then there's monetary policy.

10. She wants to bring back the gold standard

Hey Cha...hi!!

12. Aloha & Mahalo Kasper! I had just read that

and was coming back here to say never mind I just read about it.

So why is the gold standard a bad thing?.. I know nothing about it.. sorry!

[Midnight Writer]

11. Because she is a crank who wants to go back to the gold standard, for starters.

She wants to completely remake our monetary policy to fit into an "originalist" agenda.

My question is why would anyone, Republican or Democrat, support her.

[Cha]

13. TY Midnight Writer! I know

nothing about the Fed Reserve & the Gold Standard.

But she's a trump freak so she has no morals for one thing.

[Midnight Writer]

14. It's a shame that the mere fact our President appoints someone is reason enough to disqualify them.

It does help simplify things, though.

[Cha]

19. Yes, it does.. because he appoints those

who want to tear down America's institutions like the USPS, Social Security, Healthcare, etc etc etc.

7. Must have been some Repubs missing/didn't vote.

If it is "didn't vote" this nomination is probably dead.

15. Some are in quarantine

They will try again when they are back. This isn't over.
