Lots of good hyperlinks at the source link.
Affirmative action
So?
=====================================================
Vote-obsessed Biden appointed Lisa DeNell Cook a Federal Reserve Board member
<>another horrendous DEI case
<> DeNell Cook’s entire academic career was found to be fraudulent.
<>she faked research data,
<>she's another plagiarist,
<>she lied on her resume.
Lisa DeNell Cook is in charge of our monetary policy.
She's a charter member of the prestigious “Waiting Around To Be Offended So I Can Sue Club."
Lisa is Black.
Blackness transcends qualifications when jobs are passed out
The FED needs to DIE.
Powell is now known to all as a political hack.
DEI loser.
Of course if Obama hired her it was a DEI hire. Always with the racism theme.
“one of the world’s most powerful economists...”
That’s a pretty cringe concept in and of itself.
I seem to be noticing a pattern.
another euphemism for dictatorship.
She was a loyal party member in good standing, comrade!
Good thing she’s not an affirmative action hire. This is the kind of shoddy dishonest lack of scholarship the institution should have jettisoned in her first year there. She should be setting a frying in cooking oil at McDonalds rather than setting interest rates at the Fed.
“She taught economics at Harvard University and Michigan State University and served on the Obama administration’s Council of Economic Advisers ..”
Well there are plenty of clues…
another area for Bill Ackman to investigate ...
“Of course if Obama hired her it was a DEI hire. Always with the racism theme.”

Speaking of racism:
“The quality of her scholarship has also received criticism. Her most heralded work, 2014’s “Violence and Economic Activity: Evidence from African American Patents, 1870 to 1940,” examined the number of patents by black inventors in the past, concluding that the number plummeted in 1900 because of lynchings and discrimination. Other researchers soon discovered that the reason for the sudden drop in 1900 was that one of the databases Cook relied on stopped collecting data in that year. The true number of black patents, one subsequent study found, might be as much as 70 times greater than Cook’s figure, effectively debunking the study’s premise.”
We’re lucky she isn’t a pilot or surgeon. Economists are not expected to be much more credible than Voo Doo witch doctors. Not to mention that any credentialed black woman should be automatically suspected of being vainglorious.
Resume enhancer ... for DS Dems.
another DEI (didn’t earn it) hire
The fed is playing fast and loose with our money supply. Don’t think they’re not politically motivated. Our currency is turning into monopoly money thanks to the actions of the fed.
