Trump moves to fire Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, who insists she's staying
Tuesday, 26 August 2025 () President Donald Trump said Monday night that he's firing Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, an unprecedented move that would constitute a sharp escalation in his battle to exert greater control over what has long been considered an independent institution.
US President Donald Trump has sparked controversy by suggesting that the United States should own the land where over 28,500 American troops are stationed in South Korea, instead of continuing under the current lease arrangement. Speaking with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung at the White House, Trump emphasized the massive investment made by the US in building military bases and hinted at renegotiating or taking full control. The proposal raises questions about the future of US-South Korea relations and strategic military deployments in the region.

Trump has officially ruled out Scott Bessent for the next Fed chair, telling CNBC that Bessent “wants to stay where he is.” The decision follows the surprise resignation of Fed Governor Adriana Kugler, giving Trump another opportunity to reshape the Federal Reserve with loyalists. Remaining candidates include Kevin Warsh, Kevin Hassett, and Fed Governor Chris Waller—whom Trump praised as “very good.” With Powell’s term ending in 2026, Trump is considering naming a “shadow chair” to counteract his policies and align the Fed with his low-rate agenda.
