Lawyers Claim White House Inquiry into Fed Governor Cook is Biased Amid Scheduling Conflicts
- Lisa Cook's attorney, Abbe Lowell, argues the inquiry committee is biased and lacks objectivity, citing 'demonstrably biased members'.
- Cook cannot attend the scheduled hearing on November 5 due to official duties in Europe, with the earliest possible hearing now pushed to December.
- The inquiry aims to determine if there is cause for Cook's dismissal, a process that has never been successfully executed against a Fed governor.
