I'm a news junkie so maybe it's just me but I seem to recall a lot of headlines like this one.

Does President Trump have the authority to remove Ms. Cook?​

That's cuz he does a lot of things stretching the bounds of presidential authority and dares anyone to stop him. After getting immunity for breaking the law while prez and having the SC in his back pocket I get how he could be emboldened to assume he has powers prez's have not previously exercised. But no reading of the Constitution to date allows many of the actions he's taken. Until the Roberts court and the radical conservative majority that is.

Lev Menand, a professor at Columbia Law School and former economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, said he thought the allegations so far against Ms. Cook were “not sufficient” to allow Mr. Trump to remove her from the Fed, adding that she has not been charged or convicted of any crime.

“If there were a conviction for mortgage fraud, then we have this question of whether or not the statute would allow that as cause” for her firing, Mr. Menand said, noting that the law generally permits dismissal for wrongdoings related to professional misconduct.

“This would be a complicated proceeding,” he said.

Someone who is in part responsible for the fiscal operations of our entire country can't fill our mortgage applications properly?

Sorry, bye bye.

Are you trying to say that someone who commits mortgage fraud should stay employed?

Exactly. Attention seeking

Loss of the public trust is cause for anyone working in the executive branch. The sooner the Supreme Court ends Humphreys Executor the sooner this silliness ends.

If Trump wants to fire her

Of course

 

[Oddball]

Dirty little secret: he doesn't have the authority.

The Fed isn't a gubmint agency; it's a privately held cartel grift of Wall Street banksters.

Were the Fed actually a gubmint agency, it would be an unconstitutional direct violation of Article 1, Sections 8 & 10.

Thousands of workers were fired over vaccine mandates. For some, the fight goes on

As COVID has become less virulent, the debate over vaccine mandates has faded. But some workers who were fired for refusing the shots are still fighting to be reinstated.

The NY Times is not news. It’s a arm of the Democratic Party and has been for decades.

The only Presidential appointment a President can't fire is a judge. They must be impeached by the House and removed by the Senate.

Stop bein an idiot. Trump has to have cause, so let the DOJ file a case, then we can talk.

He is babbling right now, nothing more.
