## Resource

Jimmy Kimmel is clapping back on ABC. James Comey just walked into a federal courthouse. And Jerome Powell scrapped his retirement plans to stay at the Federal Reserve and stare down a president who wants him gone. Three men. Three very different arenas. One common enemy. Today we break down the most defiant trio in American public life and what their stand-offs with the President mean for media, the law, and the U.S. economy.
