Trump vs. Powell
Update: 2025-04-17
Description
In over a hundred years, no president has ever fired the chair of the Federal Reserve … yet! President Donald Trump says he could show Jerome Powell the door, even though Powell says he’s not going anywhere. We’ll explain why it might all come down to the Supreme Court. Plus: the economic conditions that led to the American Revolution. And, a smile-worthy photo reminds us it's never too late to try new things!
Here’s everything we talked about today:
- “Trump: If I ask Powell to leave, ‘he’ll be out of there’” by The Hill
- Humphrey's Executor v. United States from Oyez
- “Recreating Paul Revere's ride from Boston 250 years later, 2 men prepare for landmark journey” from CBS News Boston
