最高法院就总统解雇权作出分裂裁决
首席法律记者香农·布里姆详细介绍了最高法院的最新裁决，包括在“特朗普诉斯劳特案”中确认总统有权解雇联邦贸易委员会委员。但在“特朗普诉库克案”中，法院裁定总统不得单方面解雇美联储理事。这些判决将对行政权力和独立机构产生深远影响。

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普已成立委员会，调查美联储理事丽莎·库克涉嫌在抵押贷款文件上作出虚假陈述的指控，这也是特朗普一年多来一直试图以此将她免职的相同指控。
特朗普曾在2025年8月试图罢免库克，引发了漫长的法律斗争，最终在2026年6月被最高法院阻止其解雇行动。以5票对4票的裁决结果显示，库克未获得充足时间回应针对她的指控。
根据特朗普政府10月7日周三签署、周五公布的通知，这个新成立的委员会似乎是白宫为库克提供自我辩护机会的既定流程，她将被允许在2026年11月5日的首次预定听证会前提交书面陈述。

通知要求，库克的陈述必须在听证会前至少三天提交至委员会。听证会将在白宫举行，时长不超过四小时。
白宫表示，在听证会上，库克将能够“就相关证据和指控陈述论点、提交书面证据以及书面证人证词”。与此同时，司法部律师将对她进行质询。
听证会将对公众闭门举行，但会进行转录。

包括全国经济委员会主任凯文·哈塞特在内的三名白宫工作人员将担任委员会成员。哈塞特曾是特朗普接替杰罗姆·鲍威尔担任美联储主席的热门人选，不过特朗普最终选择了凯文·沃什。
白宫表示，预计库克将在听证会后提交另一份书面陈述，随后委员会将向特朗普提出建议，判断是否有充分理由将她免职。
今年8月，白宫重新启动了罢免库克的行动，向她发送了一封信，告知特朗普再次考虑终止其职务。

此次，库克获得了21天的回应时间。她的律师团队于8月26日向白宫提交了一封信，否认她存在抵押贷款欺诈行为。
白宫指控库克在多份抵押贷款协议中分别将亚特兰大和密歇根的房产申报为主要居所，随后又将亚特兰大的房产出租。
库克的律师称，将亚特兰大房产列为主要居所是无心之失，辩称她当时是将其作为度假屋申请融资，并且始终将密歇根州列为自己的“主要”或“永久”居所。

Supreme Court issues split decisions on presidential firing power
Chief legal correspondent Shannon Bream details the Supreme Court’s latest rulings, including a decision in Trump v. Slaughter affirming the president’s power to dismiss a Federal Trade Commission commissioner. However, in Trump v. Cook, the court states the president cannot unilaterally fire a Federal Reserve governor. These opinions shape executive power and independent agencies.

President Donald Trump has set up a committee to investigate Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over allegations she made false statements on mortgage documents, the same accusations Trump has cited for over a year in a bid to remove her from office.
Trump attempted to remove Cook in August 2025, triggering a lengthy legal battle that culminated in the Supreme Court blocking her firing in June 2026. In a 5-4 ruling, the court ruled she had not been given adequate time to respond to the allegations against her.
This newly-formed committee appears to be the process the White House has settled on to give Cook a chance to advocate for herself, as she will be allowed to submit a written statement ahead of her first scheduled hearing on Nov. 5, 2026.

Her statement must be received by the committee at least three days ahead of the hearing, which will unfold at the White House and will last no more than four hours, according to a notice dated Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2026, but released on Friday by the Trump administration.
At the hearing itself, Cook will be able to “present argument, written evidence, and written witness statements regarding the evidence and allegations,” the White House said. In turn, lawyers with the Department of Justice will question her.
The hearing will be closed to the public but will be transcribed.

EXPLAINED: HOW LISA COOK’S THREE HOME LOANS BECAME CENTRAL TO TRUMP’S FIGHT OVER HER FEDERAL RESERVE SEAT
Three White House staffers, including National Economic Council director Kevin Hassett, will serve as members of the committee. Hassett was one of Trump’s top picks to replace Jerome Powell as Fed Chair before he ultimately settled on Kevin Warsh.
The White House said it expects Cook to submit another written statement after the hearing, after which the committee will make a recommendation to Trump on whether there is adequate cause to remove her from her post.
The White House revisited its effort to fire Cook in August, sending her a letter informing her that Trump was once again considering terminating her.

This time, Cook was given 21 days to respond. Her attorneys submitted a letter to the White House on Aug. 26 denying that she had committed mortgage fraud.
The White House alleged that Cook claimed homes in Atlanta and Michigan as her primary residence on separate mortgage agreements and later rented out the Atlanta property.
Cook’s attorney said the Atlanta designation was an inadvertent mistake, arguing that she sought financing for it as a vacation home and consistently identified Michigan as her “primary” or “permanent” residence.
