这位总统此前曾因正当程序问题被最高法院阻止解除库克职务,如今他正卷土重来,组建一个由政府官员组成的小组,审查库克关于住房贷款的言论,他及其助手指控这些言论涉嫌抵押贷款欺诈。他要求库克于下月出席白宫听证会为自己辩护。
The president, who was already blocked once from removing Cook by the Supreme Court over due process concerns, is taking another run at it by forming a panel of administration officials to examine her statements about home loans, which he and his aides have alleged are evidence of mortgage fraud. He demanded that Cook appear at a White House hearing next month to defend herself.
