In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court will allow President Trump to fire Rebecca Slaughter from her position at the Federal Trade Commission.

In December 2025, SCOTUS will hear arguments on overruling the prior Supreme Court decision Humphrey’s Executor—a case that upheld Congressional limits on the President’s ability to fire FTC members.

(Many legal scholars agree that Humphrey’s Executor was decided incorrectly.)

BQQM… Trump just scored a HUGE WIN in SCOTUS…
Talk about Constitutional alignment… BQQM…
WHAT THIS MEANS…
Court just overturned Humphrey’s Executor, meaning presidential removal power wins over 90 years of agency insulation…
Constitutionally it reads as a return to Article II authority… the President appoints and is accountable to the people, the President executes the laws…
Immediate effect… presidents can remove commissioners at will, so agencies like FTC, NLRB, CPSC, CFPB, SEC, FCC, FERC, EPA, EEOC, MSPB and even Fed governors are now vulnerable… BQQM… bye Cook…
How it’s done… legal precedent overturned, plus executive orders and aggressive litigation to clear the way for firings and board reshapes… DIRECT EXECUTIVE POWER RESTORED…
Practically this means faster policy swings, deregulatory moves, reshaped enforcement priorities, and heavy turnover in senior agency ranks…
Big picture… a constitutional reset toward a unitary executive, shifting power back to the White House and, restoring the Founders’ chain of accountability…
