President Donald Trump visited the Federal Reserve headquarters in Washington on Thursday, where he publicly scorned Fed chairman Jerome Powell over the costs of a long-planned, roughly $2.5 billion renovation project, and sparred with Powell, who challenged the president’s latest price tag as incorrect.

Trump has previously indicated that Powell’s on two agency buildings could be grounds for firing. But on Thursday, when asked if the rising costs of the Fed’s renovation was a “fireable offense,” Trump said, “I don’t want to put this in that category.”
