Just heard that Trump is bullying Budweiser to let him use the Clydesdales to pull his new gold plated carriage he is having built, just like Britain's royalty!

Donnie thinks lowering interest rates when unwarranted will help him. Look no further than to our southern neighbors in Argentina how their inflation rate was at 80%, I feel it coming

NPR had a story about Cook's research. Very interesting 1899 remains the peak year for African American patents per capita US lost out on more than 1,100 inventions from Black inventors because of violence and inequality Equivalent to patents from a medium-sized European country Racism is costly🙄

Because they were born here or came here "the right way," they say & have citizenship, they think they'll be fine, & because they live in a blue state. I know what Trump's military is going to do & I know it's going to get really bad soon once the states don't capitulate & mine might be one of them.

I'd love to see someone put up a list of everyone with photos on social media. We need more in-your-face "evidence" to get people to wake the ef' up. It's not just race, it's location. I'm showing more fear than the black & brown people I know; they've taken their freedoms for granted, not concerned

I'm confused. does that mean that the Fed is actually honoring the "firing". Why can't she just keep coming to work and everyone ignores this attempt to fire someone he has no authority to fire?

Honestly, I think about Trump telling his rally crowds to, "knock the Hell out of him" then promises to pay legal fees. Seems like we can do the same, no?

There really need to be penalties for actually breaking the law. Allowing them to ‘test boundaries’ without repercussions is asinine.

Wait another smart black woman is fired by trump? Gee, looks like a pattern here. He must really be afraid of women, especially minority women. What a wuss.

Promote a career criminal with no appreciation for facts or knowledge to PINO (can't be POTUS per 14th A: we all saw the insurrection he led), expect stupid criminal acts.

Imagine millions and millions of people like you. Not only willing, but anxious to show their ignorance to the world. Trump is not her boss.

If Trump claims the right to fire Lisa Cook for alleged past crimes, why can’t we the people remove him for the crimes he committed before office and was convicted of. He’s a convicted felon but here we are.

He has no grounds to fire her - no proven misconduct, no malfeasance, no neglect of duty, no inefficiency, “no cause.” Most glaring, he’s trying to conflate ‘mortgage fraud’ as grounds for dismissal - DJT, Convicted Felon for Falsifying Business Records, is accusing Lisa Cook of ‘mortgage fraud.’

given her firing is illegal, she should just REFUSE TO LEAVE....

Are we all just going to ignore the hypocrisy of a man with 34 felony counts conviction saying that someone suspected of committing a crime cannot hold an important government job while he is occupying the office of the president?

Her suit is crucial for answering the key question: Is there *any* line that the SCOTUS Six won't allow Trump to cross? Or is the one they set out a few months ago as dispensable as all the others they've casually blown past?
