#TrumpVsPowell On Thursday, Donald Trump's request to dismiss the Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, was revealed amid a Supreme Court evaluation of a fast-track appeal concerning two independent agencies. This situation has turned into an indirect struggle for control of the U.S. Central Bank. A decision in this appeal could enable Trump to exert greater influence over these agencies, attempting to reduce their autonomy, or it could delay that process. The resolution of this case will be key to defining the balance of power between the Executive and independent financial institutions.
