Donald Trump has not made any public appearances since his lengthy Cabinet Meeting earlier this week, possibly needing some rest. However, the chaos within his administration continues unabated.
The current turmoil revolves around RFK Jr, known for his controversial stance on measles vaccination. In a recent move, he removed the director of the Centers for Disease Control allegedly because she resisted firing government vaccine experts.
Simultaneously, Trump is facing legal challenges for attempting to dismiss Federal Reserve board member Lisa Cook, who is now suing to retain her position.
In another development, Trump tried to remove Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve board, causing concern among economists. The Federal Reserve, akin to the Bank of England in the US, is an independent body responsible for setting interest rates to prevent financial crises, making its autonomy crucial.
While the President nominates board members, he lacks the authority to dismiss them prematurely. Despite this, Trump is pursuing Cook’s removal, prompting her legal action to prevent her firing.
Amidst these events, Trump’s actions have sparked criticism, with some Senators questioning his decisions in key government positions. The situation remains dynamic, with ongoing developments demanding close attention.
