If Yellen had been appointed a judge instead of Secretary of the Treasury, and a court case involving Citadel came before her, would you expect her to recuse?

- runako 6y agoI don't think giving a few speeches is worthy of recusal, no. Unless people are alleging that she entwined with them in some material way (e.g. consulting, advisory, etc.) then I honestly don't see the problem. The party who could have a problem is Citadel, who might be at risk for finding out that she gave the same speech for less money to a nonprofit.
