BOOK DESCRIPTION Trump's Siege on the Fed: Politics, Power, and the Fracturing of Global Finance In the summer of 2025, as President Donald Trump confronted Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell in an unprecedented public showdown over building renovations, the foundations of the global financial system began to crack. What started as a dispute over construction costs evolved into a constitutional crisis that would reshape international monetary relations and challenge seven decades of American economic hegemony. Dr. Naim Tahir Baig provides the definitive account of how political pressure on the Federal Reserve—long considered the sacred guardian of American monetary policy—triggered a cascade of consequences that no economist, policymaker, or world leader anticipated. Drawing on exclusive interviews with central bankers, Treasury officials, and market participants, this gripping narrative reveals how institutional independence, once lost, proves nearly impossible to restore. From the boardrooms of the European Central Bank to the trading floors of Tokyo, from Beijing's monetary policy meetings to emergency sessions at emerging market central banks, Trump's Siege on the Fed chronicles how the erosion of American institutional credibility accelerated the development of alternative financial systems. Readers witness the birth of new monetary arrangements as the digital euro gains traction, China's yuan expands its international reach, and cryptocurrency adoption surges among countries seeking refuge from dollar volatility. The book exposes the intellectual architecture behind the assault on Fed independence, profiling figures like Stephen Miran—the Harvard-trained economist whose radical proposals for coordinated devaluation and debt restructuring promise to upend global trade relationships. Through meticulous research and compelling storytelling, Dr. Baig demonstrates how economic nationalism, when combined with institutional capture, can fracture relationships built over generations. Trump's Siege on the Fed is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how domestic political battles can reshape global power structures. This is not merely a story about monetary policy—it is a warning about the fragility of the institutions that underpin prosperity and stability in an interconnected world. As central banks worldwide prepare for a post-dollar future, Dr. Baig's masterful analysis illuminates the choices that will determine whether the transition proves evolutionary or catastrophic. With the analytical rigor of an academic and the narrative drive of a thriller, this book captures a pivotal moment when the architecture of global finance faced its greatest challenge since the collapse of Bretton Woods. The choices made in 2025 will echo through decades to come—and this book explains why every citizen, investor, and policymaker needs to understand what's at stake.
