How do we know that the “outside” auditor is not bought and paid for by the Fed?

They have an independent Inspector General just like every other federal agency.

Given that they don't use the same auditor every year there would have to be a whole lot of people in on the buy-off conspiracy.

We have reason to be concerned that the Fed is inflating away middle class wealth.

Well, then you should be pissed at Trump because he's basically telling them, "screw inflation, keep rates low".

Either way, an audit's only going to tell you that they followed their procedures and that the numbers balance. It won't speak to policy.

“They have an independent Inspector General just like every other federal agency.”

I’m not thrilled with that. How have these “independent inspector generals” helped our Republic? I see zero evidence that these people have heeled the deep state and sent them to prison. If you have contrary evidence, feel free to list it. The inspector generals have sent nobody in the FBI to prison. Nobody in the Interior Department has been sent to prison for the Raponos v US decision. If you trust the federal inspector generals, we have no reason to communicate further.

“Well, then you should be pissed at Trump because he’s basically telling them, “screw inflation, keep rates low”.

Well, that makes no sense. Care to expand that opinion?
