Latin America Milei Dances in Tel Aviv, but Faces Trouble at Home Argentina’s president is facing headwinds from an ongoing crypto scandal and economic stagnation.

Every journalist who was at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner seems to be writing pieces saying, first, that they were at the dinner; second, they really, really were at the dinner—that was them sitting next to the energy…Open
Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell said on Wednesday that he will remain a central bank governor "for a period of time to be determined," citing attempted political interference. Why it matters: It extends Powell's influence over monetary policy beyond the conclusion of his term as Fed chair on May 15 . His term as one of seven Fed governors extends through January 2028. - It denies President Trump the immediate opportunity to fill a vacancy on the influential Fed board. - Powell's term as chair ends on May 15, but his term as a governor goes through Jan. 31, 2028.
