BREAKING: Trump has FIRED Federal Reserve Gov. Lisa Cook — the first time in U.S. history a president has removed a sitting Fed governor. This unprecedented power grab shatters long-standing protections meant to keep the Fed independent from partisan politics.
Well, she's a black woman for starters. Everyone can add on to that if they would like.
But why would Trump target the black...nevermind.
Donald trump is a cancer
Over a fucking rumor!
It's time to sue for illegal actions and than start an impeachment inquiry.
President Trump fired Lisa Cook, citing mortgage fraud allegations as cause. However, no criminal charges have been filed. A Fed Governor cannot be fired solely based on an allegation; clear and substantial misconduct must be proven.
He is bat shit crazy
What about he can’t?
If out of control inflation occurs, you are going to create the atmosphere of pre WWII Germany. Could that be the objective?
THIS. IS WHY.⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ www.reuters.com/business/fin...
Disgusting man
He hasn’t fired ver. Trump ‘claims’ that he has fired her. Let’s not manufacture consent here
He also claims he hardly knew Epstein.....
🤬🤬🤬
Of course he did. She is a strong smart black woman in a position of power. He just remove her and put a lackey in her place who will do his bidding. Every agency. Every position. One by one they will be fired, whether it is legal for him to do so or not. 😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Trump is just like Hitler in the 1930's....and the MAGAtts are the Nazi Party.
Read her statement. She is not leaving.
A Black acumplished woman. The 2 things that the convicted, 34 count felon, Adjudicated of sexual assault, (rapeist in any other state), person, hates most of all. Let the court cases begin
No shot that tRump is acting alone here. He's not smart enough or conscious enough to make decisions. He's being puppted.
Yes, we know this, and they told us - project 2025. This shit is ALL in there. If the fucking dems want to get ahead of any of this, they just have to read that garbage.
So now we cannot trust the numbers the Gov't puts out, and Trump is going to pack the Fed to lower interest rates come hell or high water..... What could possibly go wrong? 🤔
First time in history, I’m sure it’s a coincidence she’s black. Please ice assholes who happen to be black take note. He’s not just getting rid of Mexicans, your time will come if you don’t stop doing the nazis dirty work.
And the two black Republicans that have betrayed their brothers. They are next. How can these two men justify being in the dark skinned hating regime that will never allow them a chance to exceed.
She is not bending. It’s more like black women with a few exceptions are the only people with a backbone who will stand up to him.
There are far too few in power with anything to risk that are standing up to him as you say. Women historically have often had to stand alone as men wait for a pack before they show strength.
Some white drunk from 🦊 news will replace her.
It's so obvious he did it for 3 reasons: she's smart, black and a woman. He will probably call her a nasty woman to press.
“Low IQ” is my guess.
That's next for sure.
He probably will call her nasty. He doesn't have very many other words to choose from in his extremely limited vocabulary. 🙄
Horrifying!!
And…. The rest of the government and country just sit around with their fingers up their filthy fat asses?!?!?!?! RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES IMPEACH AND INCARCERATE NOW!!!!!!!!’
The Felon & this regime moves with impunity & in unprecedented ways every f’ing day!
Something about her, I can’t quite put my finger on it….JFC
Transparent #47 transparent. We will not allow him to continue to do this BS!
sue his orange ass
She said hold my dranky drank.
Attempts to fire would be more accurate.
I told my MAGA family this would happen so trump can lower interest rates to zero to artificially and irresponsibly heat up the economy and they said, “No, he can’t do that. It’s an Independent part of government, you’re being dramatic.”
A black woman. Shocker.
Dems need to remember this. Unlike dems allowing rogue repubs continue while under investigation has to stop. Cook considered guilty and fired without same process. She can beat this.
Any chance her race and gender was considered by Trump.
How can he fire her if it’s illegal? Frame this accurately.
He always finds a way to get around laws. Laws are for the great unwashed, not King T.
Bullshit!!!! Die Trumpf!
What unqualified Fox News person will he appoint? This is all just beyond belief!!
Impeachment! He does NOT have the authority unless the Congress gives it to him.
Well this is good for gold and crypto coin 2 things someone has a lot of hmmmm, watch them jump tomorrow if they haven't already.
Of course he fires the black woman.... 🙄
He didn’t though. He can’t
She's black. Did we expect anything different?? It was only a matter of time.
He can’t fire her…
Got to be unconstitutional Receipts Remember everything trump has done and is doing Telling us we want a dictator
So Trump is saying that lying on a loan application is sufficient reason to remove a person from office. Interesting.
Which he was proven to do and she is getting a rumor spread about her.
But being convicted on 34 counts allows you to be POTUS. This is Amerikkka for ya.🙄
With all the hundreds of millions in mortgage he's committed.
Of course she is a black woman...
Refuse to leave, do not comply with illegal "orders"
Attempts to fire you mean he doesn’t have the authority to do this
This is blatant horseshit. Come on folks, get angry and resist this wanna be tyrant!
Soooo… We can’t have a fed governor that plays with the numbers on her property (oh. Btw, SHE DIDN’T) - but it’s OK to have a president that does it. Like over and over and over and over again. And he even bragged about it! Sometimes I just know that we MUST be living in some Alien’s video game 🙈
Does he have the authority to fire her? I didn’t think he did. That should matter. We have to stand up against his overreach.
They lied to set him up with the firing
No, he has tried to fire her. Allegations are not truth
...only if she doesn't come back to work. He can't fire her. She needs to lawyer up. Know a good one?
If you report that he fired her, then you acknowledge he has that power, which he doesn't until the SCOTUS decides otherwise. Say: "signs EO that suggests he fired..." or similar.
'In May, the Supreme Court allowed Trump to fire members of labor and civil service boards, but it specifically and explicitly excluded the Federal Reserve from those rulings.' So WTF?
a BLACK FEMALE Fed governor!!!! Outrageous!
It's illegal for him to do so. The Fed is not a US government entity. But since he is a convicted criminal he thinks he can. Of course, it's another Trumpstein distraction . The GOP Congress & Supreme Court are going to answer for their complicity.
When are we going to acknowledge that he thinks he's still on a reality TV show where his whole shtick is firing people? We coulda set up a fake White House studio set with actors and AI-generated fake (er, more fake) Fox News channel and told him he's president for life, and it would have cost less

SCOTUS stench
Cool… he did another thing that would have a Democrat removed from office… the GOP is in power and has no morals
Purports to fire. bsky.app/profile/benc...
Did he fire her for being a black female?
LET'S CALL A SPADE A SPADE SHALL WE? TRUMP FIRED LISA COOK BECAUSE SHE'S *BLACK*. DISGUSTING, ABHORRENT, ILLEGAL.
The main purpose is racism, economics a distant second
I thought that you cannot fire the federal reserve chair and their Governors? It’s illegal correct?
