A federal appeals court has denied President Trump’s last-minute attempt to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, allowing her to cast a vote at an upcoming two-day meeting. The decision upholds the work of a lower judge who blocked Mr. Trump from firing Cook earlier this month. Two out of three judges agreed that removing Cook could have disrupted financial markets and plunged the central bank into uncharted waters. The ruling is seen as a victory for Ms. Cook, who has not been charged with any crime.
