The Next Fed Puppet: Trump’s Shortlist and the Coming Digital Dollar Trap

The Fed’s Throne Is Being Set—But You’re Not Invited

Donald Trump is narrowing down his picks for the next Federal Reserve chair, with a decision expected by January. Jerome Powell, the current seat-warmer, still has time left—his term ends in May 2026—but in the age of preemptive political conquest, the ground is being laid early.

This isn’t about economic philosophy. It’s about control. Every candidate being floated is a different face on the same counterfeit coin—a regime of central planning, monetary manipulation, and digital enforcement.

Trump’s Real Issue With Powell: Not the Fed’s Power, Just Who Wields It

Trump isn’t against the Federal Reserve as an institution. He just wants someone who will use its power to prop up his political narrative. He calls Powell “a fool” for being too slow to cut rates and threatens legal action over renovation costs—yes, really—because in Trump’s mind, the Fed should function like a campaign donor: obedient and generous.

But let’s not be fooled. Whether Trump appoints a fiscal hawk, a monetarist, or a Wall Street creature, the Fed’s role as a central authority manipulating the most critical price in the economy—interest—remains intact. And that's the real danger.

The Four Faces of Monetary Control: Meet the Candidates

Kevin Hassett: Trump’s Economic Cheerleader

Hassett, former Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, is a Trump loyalist. He’s already bragging that “Trump’s policies are working” because of recent GDP growth—ignoring the artificial sugar highs of money printing, asset inflation, and unsustainable debt loads. If appointed, expect more rate slashing and economic mirages fueled by manipulated data.

Kevin Warsh: The Controlled Critic

Warsh is the "Fed insider turned critic," calling out the central bank’s bad inflation forecasting. He’s right—the Fed missed the inflation bomb. But his solution? Tinker better. Forecast harder. In the end, he still believes in centralized rate control and monetary nudging. The issue isn't that the Fed forecasted wrong—it's that it thinks it can forecast at all.

Rick Rieder: BlackRock’s Inside Man

Rieder oversees $3.2 trillion in assets at BlackRock—the same BlackRock that’s already intertwined with the Fed’s balance sheet, managing bailout programs and backdoor bailouts. If Rieder gets the nod, expect full-scale integration of Wall Street and the Fed, paving the road to corporate-government financial domination. He won’t resist digital systems—he’ll help build them.

Christopher Waller: The Internal Consensus Builder

Waller, already a Fed governor, is a status-quo pick. He backed rate cuts amid inflation—meaning he believes the Fed can stimulate and fix the economy by flipping switches. Like Powell, he’s an institutionalist—and that’s the problem. These institutions are outdated, bloated, and engineered for control, not prosperity.

This Isn’t About Interest Rates. It’s About What Comes Next.

Whoever takes the reins will be overseeing the biggest shift in monetary history: the structural transition to ISO 20022. This is the standardized financial messaging framework that will enable programmable money, interoperable digital payments, and real-time surveillance across global networks.

It’s the skeleton of a future central bank digital currency system—even if the front-facing acronym isn't CBDC yet. FedNow already plugs into it. The next Fed chair will be steering how deep and how fast this integration goes. This is how financial autonomy dies—not with a loud announcement, but through seamless, silent compliance.

The Illusion of Choice: All Roads Lead to Control

Don’t be seduced by the idea that picking a “better” Fed chair will save us. The institution itself is the problem. The dollar is dying by design. The debt-based system is imploding. Inflation is not an accident—it’s the intended outcome of money creation disconnected from real value.

The Fed doesn’t need a new leader. It needs to be abolished. Until then, the best we can do is prepare for the storm coming from every direction—political, economic, and digital.

Final Warning: This Is Your Last Chance to Opt Out

This Fed drama is more than political gossip—it’s a signal. The central bank is shifting into high gear, preparing for a future where your financial freedom no longer exists. If you're waiting for a sign to act, this is it.
