WHITE HOUSE: TRUMP DISPATCHING TEAM LED BY VANCE FOR TALKS TO PAKISTAN

Chris Phelan, a Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis adviser and University of Minnesota professor, is reportedly the leading candidate to become President Donald Trump’s next chief economist, succeeding Stephen Miran. If confirmed by the Senate, he would chair the Council of Economic Advisers. The potential nomination comes as Trump’s economic approval ratings decline, partly due to rising gas prices linked to the Middle East conflict. The White House has not officially confirmed any personnel decision.
