Former President Trump is escalating his efforts to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, asking the Supreme Court for permission to fire her amid ongoing legal disputes. The Trump administration has faced setbacks in lower courts, with an appeals court recently ruling that Cook can remain on the Fed board during her legal fight. Trump’s attempts to oust Cook come amid allegations of mortgage fraud and political controversy, further complicating the situation. Cook has stated her property status amidst claims against her, and the case has garnered significant attention as it could impact the future independence of the Federal Reserve.
