A DOJ investigation into a Federal Reserve building project has been closed, which removes a potential obstacle to Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh as Fed chair. The timing of the closure — coming as Warsh's nomination was pending — creates an appearance of political coordination, though Filipkowski's claim that the opening and closing motives were 'purely political' cannot be verified from public statements alone. The underlying facts are accurate: the investigation did exist, was closed Friday, and Warsh had been effectively blocked by it until now.
