The U.S. Supreme Court refused on Monday to let Donald Trump fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook as it stood firm to preserve the central bank's cherished independence against an unprecedented challenge by the Republican president.

Trump cited those allegations in his effort to boot her from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, arguing they constituted cause for h...
