The recently nominated Federal Reserve chair candidate, Kevin Warsh, has found himself entangled in controversy after newly released documents linked him to the Epstein case. According to reports, Warsh's name appeared on a guest list for an event in 2010 hosted by Epstein, alongside prominent figures like Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.

Yahoo Finance revealed that Warsh had also attended dinners hosted by British aristocrat William Astor, raising further questions about his affiliations. The timing of this revelation, coinciding with his nomination, has intensified public scrutiny.
