An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Protect Fed Independence: Investigate Trump's Impeachable Offense

I am writing to express my grave concern over the recent attempts to politicize the Federal Reserve, particularly the alarming efforts to fire Dr. Lisa Cook. This blatant attack on the Fed's independence is not just a policy disagreement; it constitutes an impeachable offense that demands immediate investigation and action. The Federal Reserve's autonomy is crucial for our nation's economic stability and is protected by law and the Constitution. Any attempt to exert political influence over the Fed's operations, especially targeting specific members like Dr. Cook, is illegal and unconstitutional. This is a dangerous move that threatens our economy and the very foundations of our democratic institutions. Donald Trump's attempts to interfere with the Federal Reserve represent a clear abuse of power and an authoritarian overreach that cannot be ignored. Such actions, if left unchecked, could lead to disastrous economic consequences, including market instability, inflation, and a loss of global confidence in the U.S. economy. The Fed's credibility, painstakingly built over decades, is at stake. I strongly urge you to initiate an immediate and thorough investigation into these attempts to undermine the Federal Reserve's independence. Furthermore, I believe these actions warrant the commencement of impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump. The severity of this offense cannot be overstated – it is a direct threat to our economic security and democratic principles. We must act swiftly to protect the integrity of our financial system and the rule of law. I implore you to use your position to defend the Fed's autonomy, hold those responsible accountable, and ensure that our monetary policy remains guided by economic expertise rather than political machinations. The stability of our economy and the future of our nation depend on your immediate and decisive action.
