Trump unleashes as his Fed plan dealt a major blow
The US Supreme Court has preserved the independence of the Federal Reserve Board, for now, but by the narrowest of margins.
In a 5-4 decision, the court’s majority ruled that Fed governor Lisa Cook – whom Donald Trump had purported to sack on the basis of allegations of mortgage fraud – could remain on the board until the allegations had been tested and Cook given the opportunity to defend herself.
The judgment – and a concurrent ruling that a president has complete authority over every other government agency – confirms the unique status of the US central bank, which Chief Justice John Roberts rightly described as one of America’s and the world’s most important financial institutions.
Outcry over supreme court decision to grant Trump power to fire agency chiefs
Legal and labor experts say Trump v Slaughter decision upends settled constitutional law in favor of ‘loyalty test’
As a reality TV show host, Donald Trump rose to fame with the catchphrase: “You’re fired!”. On Monday, the US supreme court handed him – and all future presidents – the power to fire leaders of independent agencies or commissions, overturning 90 years of court precedent curbing executive power.
While Trump celebrated the decision on Truth Social as a “big win”, labor advocates, unions, and consumer advocacy groups criticized the supreme court decision on the case, Trump v Slaughter, and warned of the long-term impacts for democracy in the US. Rebecca Slaughter, the Federal Trade Commissioner fired last March, said she was “profoundly disappointed about today’s decision” during a press call.

Federal Reserve independence secures an important, but not final, victory at US Supreme Court
The Federal Reserve, under pressure from President Donald Trump to cut interest rates and bend to his will, just got an important assist from the U.S. Supreme Court.
In Trump v. Cook, the justices took up the case involving Trump’s decision to terminate Lisa Cook, a member of the powerful policymaking Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve. On June 29, 2026, Cook and the Fed prevailed. In a 5-4 opinion written by Chief Justice John Roberts, the court upheld a lower court’s decision to keep Cook in her role while her case proceeds on whether she was terminated “for cause.”
