President Trump and his allies are taking aim at the inner workings of the Federal Reserve, going after its top officials in a bid to install their own loyalists, as central bankers from around the world gather at an exclusive economics conference Wyoming.

The president’s calls for Lisa Cook, a Fed governor, to resign are diverting attention from economic issues as top central bankers from around the world gather in Jackson, Wyo.

    I am not sure how much "good" the Fed does, but I can guess how much "bad" could flow from it under partisan leadership. I imagine a lot.

    Since the "stable genius" is completely clueless about what his criminal policies are doing to America and the world--THIS GREEDY stupidity appears to be heading in the direction of a world wide depression, with predatory Bush/Putin type wars following.

    It’s Trump and his team pushing to reshape the Federal Reserve by replacing key leaders with their supporters, happening as global economic elites meet in Wyoming to discuss critical financial policies.
