The Fed held interest rates unchanged on Wednesday, with officials pointing to signs of economic stabilization as they signaled a pause in monetary easing. The Federal Reserve last cut interest rates in December 2025, marking the third consecutive 25-basis-point reduction to close out the year. Trump wrote:Jerome “Too Late” Powell again refused to cut interest rates, even though he has absolutely no reason to keep them so high. The Fed should substantially lower interest rates, NOW! Commensurate with this strength, both financial and otherwise, WE SHOULD BE PAYING LOWER INTEREST RATES THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!
