U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a new letter to Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, stating he is "considering" removing her from her position. The move marks a restart of his effort to oust Cook after the Supreme Court ruled in June that he must obtain congressional approval to do so.
The White House letter, seen by Reuters, demands that Cook respond to unproven mortgage‑fraud allegations within three [time period] and reiterates the president’s intent to replace her. The Supreme Court’s June decision had previously stalled Trump’s attempt, requiring Congressional approval for any removal. Related coverage from The Hill and MarketWatch confirms that Trump is again trying to fire Cook and intends to staff the Fed with allies.
The renewed effort highlights the ongoing tension between the Trump administration and the Federal Reserve’s independence, raising concerns about potential political interference in U.S. monetary policy.
