Lisa Cook of the Fed said that the market would collapse if Trump is allowed to fire her.

Lisa Cook has warned the U.S. Supreme Court that her dismissal could destabilize financial markets and threaten the independence of the Federal Reserve (Fed). Her lawyer strongly opposes the White House's efforts to remove her on allegations of mortgage fraud, arguing that doing so right now could cause “chaos and disruption” and even create legal conflicts as two individuals vie for the same Fed seat.

Trump cited her false statement on the stake application as a reason for the dismissal, but Lisa argued that these allegations do not meet the legal standard under the Fed Act. Her legal team emphasized that immediate removal would undermine the independence of the central bank, allowing any member to be dismissed for minor accusations, turning the Fed into a political tool.

Former Fed chairmen, former treasury secretaries, and economic experts have called on the Supreme Court to block the firing to protect long-term economic stability. Lower courts have blocked Trump's efforts, but he has taken the case to the Supreme Court, wanting to fire Lisa before the lawsuit is resolved. Lisa continues to fulfill her duties, participating in recent policy meetings and voting to cut interest rates, demonstrating her commitment and refusing to resign amid the legal dispute.
