Controversy Brewing: Calls for Federal Reserve Governor's Resignation

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has demanded the resignation of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook after the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency's head called for a Department of Justice investigation into Cook over alleged mortgage fraud. Representatives for Cook have yet to respond to these allegations.

In a surprising political development, former U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly called for the resignation of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.
