Trump administration tensions rise with CDC chaos, Secret Service changes

President Trump is exercising his executive powers by revoking Secret Service protection for former Vice President Kamala Harris and appointing Jim O’Neill, an ally of Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr., as interim acting head of the CDC amid internal upheaval. The dismissal of Susan Monarez as CDC head, following her clash with Kennedy over vaccine policy, and the resignation of several top health officials raise concerns about scientific integrity. Concurrently, Trump's conflict with the Federal Reserve continues as Lisa Cook's attorneys fight to retain her position, while Republicans challenge the legitimacy of the CDC's advisory committee under Kennedy's leadership.
