A White House economic policy reporter revealed that since Warsh became Federal Reserve Chairman, Trump has spoken to him multiple times, maintaining a rare communication channel between the president and the central bank governor. Nick Timiraos, often referred to as the "Federal Reserve mouthpiece," commented on the report: "The president's calls to Warsh vary in frequency—sometimes several times within a few days, then there are long periods of no contact.
