The decision to hold this illegitimate vote has upended the FDIC’s decades-long commitment to respect and collegiality between board members, regardless of political affiliation, to instead pursue an egregious and possibly illegal political power grab.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:37:48Z |
