[Trump Administration Submits New Arguments Seeking Court Support to Dismiss Federal Reserve Governor Cook] Odaily Planet Daily News – The U.S. Department of Justice has presented new arguments regarding why President Trump should be allowed to dismiss Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, stating that her claims about a "rate cut pretext" are baseless. Cook has been accused of involvement in mortgage fraud and is currently challenging the dismissal decision. On Thursday, government attorneys once again urged the judge to reject Cook's request to block her dismissal during the litigation, reinforcing arguments made during last week's hearing. Just hours before the legal filing, reports emerged that the Department of Justice had launched a criminal investigation into Cook. The U.S. government argues that the fraud allegations, initially raised by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Mark Calabria, constitute sufficient "grounds" under U.S. law for Trump to dismiss her. In Thursday's filing, the Department of Justice emphasized that the judge must not "second-guess" Trump's judgment regarding the grounds for dismissal and reiterated its rejection of claims that the dismissal was merely a pretext to control the Federal Reserve and push for rate cuts. "Her only 'evidence' is that the President has criticized the Federal Reserve's policies," the filing stated, "but mere policy disagreements do not imply that the President dismissed Cook for that reason."
