Trump Targets Fed Governor Lisa Cook | Durham News
from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Trump’s administration is back at it, pushing to oust Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook despite a Supreme Court ruling that upheld her position — and the court’s clear warning that she can’t be removed without due process. The fight began after allegations that Cook falsely claimed two homes as her primary residence, allegedly to snag better mortgage rates — a claim she denies. Her legal team insists the Michigan home was always her true primary residence, calling the Atlanta listing an “isolated notation” and nothing more. They’re framing this as a political power play, arguing Trump’s targeting her for refusing to bend on interest rates — and they’re confident the courts will stand by her. With the administration appealing a lower court’s favorable decision, the battle over Fed independence rages on — and Cook’s lawyers are ready to fight again.
