White House NEC Director Hassett Says US Government Still Committed to Reshaping Fed Independence

White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said the US government remains committed to reshaping the Federal Reserve’s independence. The statement, made by the top White House economic adviser, signals continued executive-branch pressure on the central bank’s institutional autonomy. No further details or timeline were provided.

The signal here is institutional rather than monetary: a sitting NEC director openly framing Fed independence as something to be reshaped, not defended. For crypto and RWA markets, which price off dollar liquidity and rate expectations, any credible erosion of central-bank autonomy raises the question of how policy reacts if political pressure intensifies. The absence of detail or timeline is itself notable — it reads as positioning rather than a policy launch. Whether this stays rhetoric or becomes a concrete mechanism is the open question worth tracking.
