President Trump issued a May 15 deadline for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to resign or face firing over policy disagreements.
President Trump has issued a May 15 deadline for Fed Chair Jerome Powell to resign or face firing, as a standoff intensifies over Powell's refusal to leave his seat on the Fed Board of Governors.
U.S. Senator (R-NC)
President Trump has threatened to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell if he does not resign by May 15, citing alleged mismanagement of a multi-billion dollar headquarters renovation. Right-leaning outlets like Fox Business and The Daily Caller focus on Trump's accusations of "incompetence" and his push for nominee Kevin Warsh. In contrast, left-leaning sources such as RawStory and MS NOW frame the ultimatum as a personal "vendetta" that faces significant judicial and legislative pushback.
