Trump White House renews bid to remove Fed Governor Lisa Cook, sets Aug. 26 deadline to contest
The Trump administration is moving forward with steps to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, with White House aide Dan Scavino telling her she has until Aug. 26 to challenge the action. The push follows a 5-4 Supreme Court ruling that allowed Cook to remain in her role while her lawsuit proceeds. The effort is being scrutinized as a political test of the Fed’s independence and the credibility of U.S. monetary policy.
