> I don't know if Trump can fire her. But obviously everyone who cares for officials being competent, would hope that he can.

No, not at all. As Krugman concludes, it's much, much more important that we are still a nation of laws.

Those allegations (the academic ones. The mortgage fraud case looks thin at best) look very damning and credible. Yet literally none are even mentioned on her wikipedia page, or any "reliable source", despite being trivial to independently verify. Odd.

I can easily imagine how that would play out on the "Talk" page of the Wikipedia article.

Are we firing everyone that is incompetent now, or just the ones that are claimed to be "DEI hires" ?

[zosima]

This is not "everyone".

I'd hope we'd fire anyone incompetent that's in a position to control the interest rate.
