Jerome Powell, a Republican, and Trump's choice to chair the Fed may have an edge in passing Senate confirmation, even though he wasnt the preferred choice of some Republicans.
The Trump administration has called on federal departments and agencies to look into the vulnerabilities of employing the identifier tied to retirement benefits, as well as how to replace the existing system.
At least one of SEC chair nominee Jay Claytons clients, Valeant Pharmaceuticals, has disclosed that its being investigated by the SEC -- and Claytons disclosure form also shows deep ties to Goldman Sachs, where his wife works as a wealth manager.
President-elect Trump repeatedly pledged to drain the swamp in Washington on the campaign trail, saying he would strip power from lobbyists, political insiders and powerful corporations. Elizabeth Warren says he's violating that promise.
