Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is coordinating the process, accusing the Fed of "arrogance." Favorites include Fed Governor Christopher Waller, Director of the National Economic Council Kevin Hassett, and former Governor Kevin Warsh. The final decision will influence the direction of U.S. monetary policy.
