Date: December 9th, 2025 10:55 AM Author: Hairless property voyeur also, that headline is misleading, i think. i don't think jackson was saying the president should have NO power to fire agency heads, just that the "for cause" removal protections should be upheld.
the answer to the question she poses, though, is obviously that if the president is putting people in positions who know nothing, that's the senate's job to prevent that (which they clearly haven't done if you look at trump's nominees but that's a different issue altogether).

In holding otherwise, the Court gives the President a power unknown even to the English Crown against which the Founders revolted, elevating him above his oncecoequal branches by transforming a duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed into a license to act in defiance of those very laws. If nothing else, the doctrine of stare decisis, which today’s decision cursorily dismisses, should have made this a profoundly easy case under Humphrey’s (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5728986&forum_id=2#49968914) |

Today’s majority, however, decides that it knows better: better than members of the founding generation who created agencies, like the Sinking Fund Commission and the Bank of the United States, free from unfettered Presidential control; better than a century and a half of Congresses and Presidents, starting with Grover Cleveland and continuing into the 21st century, who created agencies in the FTC’s mold; better than even Hamilton, Story, Webster, Holmes, Brandeis, Frankfurter, and Rehnquist.
These great statesmen and Justices knew something that today’s majority apparently does not: that fealty to the Constitution means (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5728986&forum_id=2#49968915) |

Date: June 29th, 2026 11:03 AM Author: Know-it-all Bearded Meetinghouse Today, the Court discards that democratic regime in favor of one that distorts the structure of Government to fit the majority’s theory of unitary, total executive control. The result is a President who emerges with far greater power than ever before. It is a power, however, that neither the People, nor Congress, nor the Constitution bestowed upon him. In granting the President this unbridled authority, the Court upends its precedent, misconstrues our history, and sheds any pretense of judicial modesty. I respectfully dissent.
