Trump Renewing Effort to Remove Fed Governor Lisa Cook After Court Ruling

Trump Renewing Effort to Remove Fed Governor Lisa Cook After Court RulingPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump is renewing efforts to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook following a June Supreme Court ruling that blocked his initial attempt. The White House has sent Cook a letter citing mortgage fraud allegations, which she denies, and has given her three weeks to respond. The Supreme Court allowed Trump to try again if proper notice is given. Cook's lawyer called the allegations baseless and plans to challenge the removal. The case centers on claims Cook misrepresented her primary residence to obtain favorable mortgage terms.
