YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Across the ideological spectrum, Supreme Court justices appeared wary of President Trump’s attempts to fire Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook in a hearing on Wednesday. Their ruling, which is set to come by July, could set a crucial precedent for the executive branch’s influence over the central bank.

On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg reporters Amara Omeokwe and Greg Stohr break down arguments from both sides of the case, analyze key reactions from justices on the bench and make sense of how the outcome could impact the economy and public confidence in the Fed.
