Fed governor’s firing shows that Trump is beyond all restraint

And if proven pknopp will either disappear or play her DEI get-out-of-jail-free card

I already noted what should happen if proven true. I do have an out though as I've often noted that I do not support a one sided justice system.

If one isn't held accountable, none should.

Oh?

I guess I missed that
 
As the retaliations mount, the president increasingly sees himself as omnipotent

‘On Monday night, President Donald Trump announced he was seeking to fire Lisa Cook, the first Black woman to serve on the Federal Reserve’s board of governors, after days of escalating hints and speculation. In moving to dismiss Cook, who was confirmed by the Senate to her seat in 2022, Trump sought to legally justify his position by pointing to “sufficient cause” — unproven allegations that she had committed mortgage fraud.

Through a spokesperson, Cook was unequivocal in her response and suggested she was ready to do battle. “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 continue to carry out my duties to help the American economy as I have been doing since 2022.” Her attorney, Abbe Lowell, pledged to “take whatever actions are needed to prevent his attempted illegal action.”

Like all things Trump, there’s more to his action than meets the eye. Cook’s firing comes against the backdrop of the president exerting extraordinary pressure to bend the nation’s central bank to his will and lower interest rates. He has often mused about firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell in a bid to assume greater control of U.S. economic policy.

And make no mistake: This is about control, and it goes far beyond the Federal Reserve.’


Worse, there’s no way to stop Trump – Congress is controlled by Republican cowards who lack the courage to oppose the authoritarian Trump regime and the Supreme Court, dominated by blind partisan Republican hacks, not only refuses to stop Trump but has endorsed and facilitated the Trump dictatorship.


No One is Above the Law. :lol:

Well, this is what fascism is all about.
 
Democrats tried to get rid of Trump based on fake documents. Now the freaking hypocrites infer racism and whine about the Fed governor fired for mortgage fraud. No surprise here.

In this country we do not find for guilt based upon accusations.

I also said the entire Russia thing was B.S.

committing fraud is grounds for being fired.

If I understand you correctly, you're admitting that Trump had the authority to fire her. Why do you think she should be above the law?
