The Supreme Court Is Giving Trump the Power to Fire Anyone He Wants

From The New York Times:In an emergency order, a divided court announced that it would allow President Trump to fire Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, a F.T.C.
commissioner, and that it would hear argument in the case in December, a signal that a majority of the court is ready to revisit a landmark precedent limiting presidential authority.
After their firing, the two commissioners had said they planned to challenge their removal in court, relying on a 1935 landmark Supreme Court case, Humphrey’s Executor v. United States, that also involved the firing of an F.T.C.
Justice Elena Kagan said her conservative colleagues had essentially allowed the president to take charge of agencies Congress intended to protect from partisanship.
And he may thereby extinguish the agencies’ bipartisanship and independence.”All those copies of The Federalist Papers are going to jam shredders throughout town.
