And now we have a new round of uncertainty, which is, how is the new chair going to settle into the job?
Powell has faced a lot of challenges in dealing with the White House and Trump during the last year.
Walsh could have it worse.
And the reason is because when Powell took the job, there wasn't any explicit expectation that he was going to try to get the president the interest rate policy the president wanted.
That wasn't a part of the conversations at all.
But it is now.
It's very explicit.
I am going to pick somebody who will do what I want on interest rates.
So how does that unfold?
There is never a dull moment on this beat right now.
Well, the arguments today were unusual because they focused a lot on sort of technical elements of Lisa Cook's dismissal.
So the president attempted to fire Cook in August.
He did it in a letter that he posted on his Truth Social social media account.
So that was something the president's attorney was asked about today, was the nature with which you did this dismissal.
satisfying what the law says, you can fire somebody for cause.
Was Lisa Cook given a chance to defend herself?
Was she given a hearing?
Should she have been given a hearing?
Well, the legal analysts that I spoke with after the hearing thought the justices sounded inclined to let Lisa Cook stay in her job, at least while her broader legal challenge plays out.
So this has all unfolded on what's known as the emergency docket or kind of an expedited process.
