Did something happen to set trump off or is this just more of Don being Don?

[CrusaderFrank]

You just earned your little pat on the head from your Dear Leader.

Nice job.

Trump wants to End the Fed?

Really?

Biden didnt pardon anyone the auto pen did. They are all forgeries

 

[BackAgain]

If the allegation is credible I'm all for investigating. But we still have the presumption of innocence in America.............or we used to.

Except when you guys accuse a Republican of anything. You hypocrite

Think your Dear Leader doesn't use auto pen? He's lucky if he has enough brains to read what he's signing in the first place.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Trump is a convicted criminal and got to keep his job.

The voters saw that the bookkeeping misdemeanors that were beyond the statute of limitations weren't real crimes.

Another case of leftists shooting themselves in the foot.

Maybe they should work on controlling their own guns first, eh?

I think he scrawled his own signature on the pardon for Hunter.

Hunter could have signed his own pardon think about that

Not for orders the auto pen is used for fan mail. In Bidens case these are all forgeries

They are real crimes, you want to let him off because you are in love with the man, yer in heat.

Prove it then, or else yer statement is no more than an opinion, and a bad one at that.

Biden stated he never authorized its use. The fact that it was used at all proves the point. Biden never signed the pardons.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

They are real crimes,

Real crimes. Misdemeanors that were beyond the statute of limitations. Yes.

If there was ever any subtlety to what trump has done in the past there certainly isn't any now. He is trying to take over the Federal Reserve board and making no secret about it. Get ready for gold to rise and the dollar to fall.

Trump is removing the DEI hacks placed there by Obama

 

[struth]

Thanks Capt. Obvious. The matter concerns whether there is actual cause to fire her.

Cook, in a statement Monday, said, “President Trump purported to fire me ‘for cause’ when no cause exists under the law, and he has no authority to do so.”

“I will not resign,” said Cook, who is the first Black woman to serve as a Fed governor. “I will continue to carry out my duties to help the American economy as I have been doing since 2022.”

Coincidence that trump is attacking is a black woman? Doubt it.

Well unlike Cook and the dembots, most Americans think being under investigation for fraud is cause

You aint seen nothin yet , Un - American Troll Bot Bugger 86

It could be the court's conservatives are ready to once again bend the knee to their Dear Leader.

The conservative justices who hold a majority on the court have provided only a few Delphic signals about how they view the president’s authority to fire board members of the Fed. Just three months ago, the justices obliquely suggested that the Fed — unlike other executive branch agencies — should retain some degree of independence from the president.

But Trump is betting the court won’t second-guess his decision on Monday to fire board member Lisa Cook “for cause.” That might be a good bet, legal experts said Tuesday. Judges — including Supreme Court justices — may be reluctant to overturn a president’s subjective conclusion about what counts as an acceptable “cause,” or legal basis, for a firing.

In this case, the purported basis is an unproven allegation that Cook lied on a mortgage application — even though Trump’s true motive likely is his frustration that the Fed has not lowered interest rates.

“The firing of Lisa Cook ‘for cause’ may be pretextual, but is not obviously illegal,” said Harvard Law professor and former Justice Department official Jack Goldsmith, in a recent post on X.

And if the courts take a hands-off approach, any pushback will have to come through other channels, namely political pressure from Congress or feedback from the financial markets.

I can think of few things more dangerous for the economy than Dotard setting interest rate policy by proxy.

Look how Un -AmericanTroll Bot Bugger desperately tries to double down as he slowly realises that things are going badly for the treacherous ones like himself .

He begins to realise that down the road the writing is firmly on the wall -- roll on end- September and October when mass arrests will occur .

 

[marvin martian]

He said he had fired a Fed governor, taking advantage of vague language in the law preventing such things requiring there to be "cause." Is a thus far unproven allegation "cause?"

Trump tells Fed’s Lisa Cook she’s fired; she says ‘he has no authority to do so’​

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/25/trump-fires-lisa-cook-fed-powell.html

He made the kind of 'cranky old man' demand you'd expect from someone of his age, but not from the POTUS surrounded by qualified advisors.

'They have to give us magnets'​

Finally, yes, this again.

Trump vows ‘substantial’ new tariffs, chip restrictions on countries with digital taxes​

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/25/trump-tariffs-digital-taxes.html

Maybe he had a cheeseburger that didn't agree with him?

In any event, I can't help wondering if Don trying to fire Cook is a way for him to deflect blame on to the Fed for his broken promise of getting rid of inflation on day one?

Trump, who promised Day 1 relief and lower prices, talks of a 'transition period'​

The president told ABC News that Americans knew what they were signing up for, despite his campaign's pledge to bring down prices immediately.

Well, you did try to murder him twice.

Democrats care more about what Trump says than what he does.

Republicans care more about what he does than what he says.
