President Trump appealed to the Supreme Court on Thursday seeking to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook from the independent board that can raise or lower interest rates. The appeal is the second this month asking the court to give Trump broad new power over the economy. The new case could determine if he is free to remake the Federal Reserve Board by removing a Democratic appointee who he says may have broken the law. This week, Stephen Miran, one of Trump’s top economic advisors, was confirmed to serve a temporary term on the seven-member Federal Reserve Board. Congress wrote the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 intending to give the central bank board some independence from politics and the current president.
