Trump and his allies are crying “election interference” over the Federal Reserve’s decision to slash interest rates

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced it is cutting interest rates by half a percentage point. It’s the first cut since 2020 and a long-awaited decrease to historically high interest rates.
