Trump Reported to Have Frequently Called Waller, "Fed Mouthpiece": Yes, Many Times

TechFlow News, August 6, White House economic policy reporters revealed that since Warsh became Federal Reserve Chair, Trump has called him multiple times, maintaining a rare channel of communication between the president and the central bank governor.

"Fed Whisperer" Nick Timiraos responded to this disclosure: "The frequency of the president calling Warsh varies, sometimes several times within a few days, followed by long periods of no contact. Trump sought Warsh's advice on a series of issues, including the impact of the war with Iran and the rapid rise of artificial intelligence on the economy."

Previously, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent specifically mentioned Nick, stating that a major highlight during Warsh's tenure at the Federal Reserve would be watching those stenographers disguised as reporters, such as Nick Timiraos from The Wall Street Journal (previously known as the "Fed Whisperer"), reduced to reporting only behind-the-scenes Federal Reserve gossip, because without someone feeding them information, they cannot produce real economic or monetary policy analysis.
