Is she the only Black person on the Board?
Only Black woman. There is a Black man. (Going by pictures)
I hate him, McConnell SCOTUS, Project 2025 and the people that voted for him again.
Wait until the market opens tomorrow…
An accusation from Pulte caused all of this, boycott their 💩💩 homes folks! 🤬
Is it because she’s black?
This isn't an "attack on the U.S. central bank," especially if he doesn't fire Powell. This is an attack on another competent, intelligent woman who happens to also be African American. Just like his attacks on Karen Bass and Muriel Bowser. This is his war on Minority Women This is his bigotry
🤬 us files bankruptcy, just like every other trump enterprise. China buys everything in the government inventory and deports all but tribal americans . . .
Dong Zhuo reducing the power of the merchants in an attempt to consolidate wealth, typical tyrant move
I hope she challenges it and keeps the case tied up in court for months.
Not unprecedented by this guy. He’s on a tear attacking women, minorities, and existent rails that prohibit him from power grabs over monetary policy.
cause he's pussy to remove Powell 😄
He can't remove anyone on that board! He is not authorized to do so.
The president needs to be removed now.
I hate him so much
Of course he is
A corrupt executive, a corrupt gop, a corrupt scotus. What could go wrong?
Alright. 👍🏾
*and black women specifically.
Hmm. A Black woman. Surely just a coincidence. Surely.
The only way his tariffs work is if he can get interest rates down. The flipside of this is we’re gonna end up in a 2008 scenario again. The buy now and pay later scheme. Fully expect predatory loans, adjustable arm interest rates, Heartbeat Loans. They’re already gutting consumer protection
He just hates black people, especially women. We hate you too.
Her out of all people even though he curses out Jerome Powell every day
They keep sharing an unflattering picture of her, with no mention of her VERY impressive background. 45 can't stand smart women, ESPECIALLY ones who aren't white. Please share her credentials widely - this comes from the Fed's website:
Thanks for adding the alt text. I read it instead of swiping the pictures.
Her signature is on two different forms claiming two different permanent residences. It’s cut and dried and she’s not denying it. She’s just claiming she’s above the law and NO ONE, NO ONE can fire her!!
And his general, racist attack on black women and non white people in general. The orange Jim Crow.
Surprised it took him this long...
I hope she sues the shit out of the Trump administration. Immediately.
Man, they had to dig for this one. I guess Jared Kushner getting that $2 billion in financing from the Saudis and Clarence Thomas getting milllion$ in free travel and a house for his mom were tricky cases but this is more clear cut fraud. 🤮
Oh look, another person of color treated unjustly by this fascist regime as they move closer to a complete fascistic takeover of the US.

just saw this quoted by G Conway via Politico... "I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and Trump Plaza. Black [people] counting my money! I hate it." ~ Donald Trump, 1988
Trump:
Can’t imagine why he chose to remove her.
Under what legal authority
They never cared about legal authority and they never will.
Well, credit where it’s due. “Trump says he is removing …” is a lot better construction than “Trump removes …”
He hates black women.
YOU ARE A DECEITFUL VICIOUS LIAR @donaldjtrump-maga.bsky.social You're ON A Role Keeping the Lies Big..ALL SEEM to be Unlawful, Breach of the @usconstitution.bsky.social @houseofreps.bsky.social
To frightened and intimidate is the dictionary definition of Domestic terrorism
Intelligent and strong women are not his forte.
Good job Merrick Garland. Being a coward really worked out

He wants the keys to the Central Bank. Omg if that happens he will try to control other foreign countries and control the whole American economy. This country will go bankrupt and see war
