Subject: Re: Trump removes Cook from Fed
It is my understanding that the Felon (or any POTUS) can't fire someone on the Fed. They're independent and non-partisan. If so, Cook can safely ignore him.

Similar with SCOTUS. I'm sure if he thought he could, he'd fire Sotomayor. But he can't, no matter how much bloviating he does.

He can’t yet fire Sotomayor, but after just a bit more consolidation of power, he might simply pick her up in an ICE raid and deport her to a prison in Uganda for not being a “Real American”.

We’re entering an era when yesterday’s “impossibility” becomes today’s “routine”. Trump has given us no reason at all to believe that this trajectory will not continue.
