The Department of Justice ended its investigation into the Federal Reserve and its chair Jerome Powell over building costs, handing it over to the office of the inspector general that oversees the Fed.

“I have directed my office to close our investigation as the IG undertakes this inquiry,” US Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro wrote in a statement, “Note well, however, that I will not hesitate to restart a criminal investigation should the facts warrant doing so.”

The move clears a potential path for Senate confirmation of Kevin Warsh, Trump’s pick to take over as chair of the federal reserve.
