Washington DC – A shocking development has just shaken the entire US political scene: The US Supreme Court has officially blocked President Donald Trump in his attempt to quickly remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook from her position of power.
This is considered the strongest blow to Trump’s ambition to tighten control of the US central bank – which directly decides the fate of the global economy.
UNCOMFORTABLE CONFRONTATION
According to sources from reporters in Washington, Trump has long considered Lisa Cook – one of the most influential governors in the Fed – as an “obstacle” in his plan to reshape US monetary policy in a tough and “America First” direction.
The president is said to have prepared a series of executive orders to quickly replace Cook with a close ally, but the Supreme Court unexpectedly intervened, issuing an emergency ruling that blocked this intention, at least while Cook fights to keep her seat.
An unnamed judge is said to have exclaimed in a closed session:
“If the Fed is controlled by a political decree, the American economy will no longer be independent.”
THE FED BATTLEFIELD – WHERE ALL EYES ARE ON
Lisa Cook, who was appointed by President Joe Biden, is the first female governor of color in the history of the Fed. She is known for her tough stance in protecting the independence of the central bank from any political influence.
Analysts say that this confrontation is not just a story about a seat of power, but a “battle for survival” that determines who really holds the steering wheel of the world’s No. 1 economy.
If Trump succeeds, he will be able to change the entire direction of interest rate policy, inflation and even foreign financial strategy. On the contrary, if Lisa Cook holds firm, this will be a painful blow that slows down Trump’s progress in controlling the economic machine right from the beginning of his term.
THE INTERNAL WAVES OF AMERICA
As soon as the news broke, a series of congressmen from both parties spoke up:
A Democratic congressman harshly declared: “This is a victory for democracy. No president is allowed to manipulate the Fed at will.”
Meanwhile, the far-right Republicans responded: “The court has taken away the people’s power and given it to a group of unelected bureaucrats.”
Wall Street investors were also shaken. Within 30 minutes of the verdict, the US stock market fluctuated violently, the USD fell slightly while the price of gold soared – a testament to the financial world’s heart-stopping attention to every next step.
GLOBAL CONSEQUENCES
Not only the US, but also major economies such as Europe, Japan, and China are closely watching. Because the Fed is not simply “the central bank of the US” – but almost a global financial center, where every decision can shake the international market.
An economist said:
“If Trump takes over the Fed, it will be a major turning point. But with the Supreme Court involved, this could become the most fierce power struggle in modern history.”
THE END IS STILL AMBIGUOUS…
While Lisa Cook has vowed to “fight to the end” to protect the Fed’s position and independence, the Trump White House is said to be preparing a “plan B” – a tricky strategy to gradually erode the power of Cook and his opponents.
The big question hanging over America is:
👉 Will Trump succeed in turning the Fed into his ultimate tool of power?
👉 Or will Lisa Cook become the new symbol of the fight to protect economic independence from political pressure?
