  "account": "The United States has decided not to reopen the investigation into former Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, according to a spokesperson for the Department of Justice, Todd Blanche. The inquiry, initiated earlier this year, aimed to determine if Powell provided misleading information to Congress. However, the investigation was halted in April when a federal judge dismissed the department's lawsuits against the Fed. The Fed's internal review concluded in the same month that there was insufficient evidence to support the claim of a federal crime. President Donald Trump strongly reacted to the decision on social media, calling for Powell to be removed from the central bank's board and accusing him of being unfit to manage economic policy.",
