The Fed (Finally) Admits the Problem | Rooster Reacts | June 18, 2026

"Rooster Reacts" returns after a long break with Ryan “Rooster” Ricci evaluating Kevin Warsh’s first meeting as the new Fed chair. Ricci frames Warsh as “the new sheriff in town” and focuses on whether he can restore Fed credibility after years of missed inflation targets. He reacts positively to Warsh’s emphasis on price stability, accountability, better data, and less reliance on stale Fed projections, while remaining skeptical of repeated “task force” language and bureaucratic delay. The key takeaway: Warsh is saying the right things about inflation, real-time data, and market signals, but Ricci will be watching whether his actions match the rhetoric.
