Lisa Cook is right not to resign. Trump’s attempt to fire her without cause is flatly illegal.
Lisa Cook calls firing unlawful without ‘cause’ under the law.
So he wants to fire her for doing the exact same thing he did, lying for a loan application? You can’t make this stuff up it’s so crazy.
And SCOTUS has said in the NLRB case that the Fed is different than all other agencies. When this case goes up on appeal - which it will - we'll see what SCOTUS really meant by that sua sponte comment about the Fed. youtu.be/HXd7z5bOstE
He picked a fight with the wrong person
But they'll find some loophole, just watch. She's a strong black woman and Republicans hate, hate, hate them.
“In light of your deceitful and potentially criminal conduct in a financial matter, [the American people] cannot and I do not have such confidence in your integrity,” wrote Trump in the letter. Trump Fires Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.”
Every time Trump makes a claim about someone a split screen image should be shown alongside it showing his or his family’s, supporters’, cabinet’s, friends’ participation, accusation or conviction of the same thing he’s claiming someone else of doing.
Hold fast Gov Cook!
Innocent until proven guilty remains the standard. One accusation from a billionaire home builder doesn't come close to sufficient grounds for dismissal. Trump may find his old school Roy Cohn skills at bullying African Americans falling short on this one.
Said this on another post about this.
Good how many sq ft did he tell the banks his place was in Trump tower 30000 when it was only 8000 like he has never over estimated on his mortgage.....
It is not Lisa Cook's job preference, she is a black woman holding a job that a white man should have.
Trump's new Government, new Country.
Unless the six SCOTUS MAGATs change their minds.
The photo illustrates exactly why he wants to fire her -- She's a black woman!
Alina Habba won't leave and she was removed properly according to the law why should Cook leave when it's not being done illegally
Love you! All of us follow her lead!!
This distinguished, accomplished woman is not about to capitulate to a primitive, rabid baboon.
Good
I didn’t know Lisa Cook was a Black woman. But wanting to fire her is a typical Trump move.
He has issues with ANY people of color - but seems especially irked by capable Black women. What do LA and DC have in common? Black female mayors.
NOW he’s after MD Gov. Wes Moore - and his Bronze Star.
If we could go back in time, Al Gore should have done the same. For the sake of the country feels a lot different now than challenging election results, doesn't it?
Fight fire with fire. Do not allow Trump's corrupt DOJ to bully you!
Let‘s hope scumtus is of the same opinion. Doubt it, somehow … 😒
Fuck Donnie boy
Juvenile delinquent as president.
Perhaps every mortgage on every pulte home needs to be reviewed?

Good, don't make it easy for TrumpStein, even when he instructs his Goons to threaten your family.
Just beef up your security.
The orange demagogue is doing this to see how markets & opinion react instead of firing Powell 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥! I was born with 10% & grew up in an industry town. My father taught me to pity bullies 𝘢𝘯𝘥 some boot camp moves so I could dispatch them if needs be. I 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 a coward when I see one!🙇
Fired for being female and black. Or black and female.
Trump messed with the wrong lady 😎
Lisa Cook knows better. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
This whole shitshow is fucking illegal. Helllloooooo?!?
Of course. It's great she's said no.
I wonder what SCOTUS will do when it eventually gets there. They specifically carved out the Fed last time. Do they narrow that even further to just the Chairman, in order to please Donald ... 🤔
I'm glad to see Abbe Lowell has her back.
What if trump just locks her out of all her access? Logins card readers etc?
SCOTUS, POTUS, DOJ, AG, DoD, Senate GOP, Speaker, House GOP, and their minions are all playing fast and loose Calvinball with the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Rule of Law, the separation of powers, our international reputation and the honor of our country! SAD! #ProtectTheConstitution🇺🇸
Boycott Pulte Homes!
When is Trump going to learn that he is no match for the highly intelligent people he tries to fire?
“…flatly…”
Did he fire her, if firing her would be illegal? What kind of upside down language are journalists using these days?
👍🇨🇦
Best of all -so different from certain Media and Legal concerns - she did not fold!
Bravo!
A lesson to GOP creatures and Commercial enterprises who need to stand up for their constituents and or employees!
I stand with Lisa Cook! And against clearly psychotic dictator wannabe Trump with rapidly declining mental state that should be the biggest news topic now along with RELEASING THE EPSTEIN FILES. Instead MSM and GOP act like this is normal behavior. It’s not! Trump is greatly impaired! DO SOMETHING!

I support Lisa Cook.
Notice it's a black woman trump went after
I love this woman and I’m going to figure out how to help her in anyway I can
This is a purely racist thing.
DJTS is claiming cause, though. Something about Cook misrepresenting her primary residence.
Stand your ground! The only thing bullies understand is strength.
harassment describe behaviors and actions that are persistently annoying, threatening, or abusive, causing distress or harm to another person. Terms like torment, persecution, molestation, threats, insults, slurs, and persistent criticism, can be used in various contexts to describe situations. SUE!
You can't fire a FED Governor. Only the board & chairman can vote them out!
Cook - "guilty" of being black.
She is "guilty" of succeeding in a society and culture that the current fascist leader wants to "purify" of anything not white.
This is not hyperbole. And the foolishness in LA, DC and soon Chicago most likely=black mayors. racist FUCKERY a la fani willis!!
"A lot of people are saying ..."
I, Trump
This is just another attack on someone that is from a racial minority. Gasp. Sigh.
Why dows anyone refuse to believe that the entire underbelly of MAGA is racism? Why?
DEI, Immigration, Attempts to re-write history and culture?
Do you need more evidence?
Support Lisa Cook!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Mortgage fraud? Does this mean we the people can fire Trump for his multiple mortgage frauds?
She should offer to resign one day after the convicted fraudster in the White House reigns.
he is not a dictator, he doesn't get to do what he wants. He gets to follow the Constitution, or he needs to be thrown in prison.
If the GOP is going to use technical mortgage violations as a cudgel, they’d better start building sandbags, because the Trump kids are walking compliance headaches with enough red flags to start a Soviet parade.
Thank you!
