Lisa Cook, the Governor of the Federal Reserve, has been threatened with dismissal by Donald Trump, who cited alleged mortgage fraud accusations. In response, Cook's attorney, Abbe Lowell, stated on Tuesday that the president has 'no authority' to fire her. The Trump administration supported the move, citing a section of the U.S. code.
