Win for Rebecca Slaughter as court rules commissioners may not be dismissed by a president without cause
A divided US appeals court on Tuesday allowed the US federal trade commissioner, Rebecca Slaughter, a Democrat, to resume her role at the agency, as Donald Trump tries to remove her from office.
In a 2-1 decision, the District of Columbia circuit court of appeals allowed a lower court decision in favor of Slaughter to take effect, rejecting the Trump administration’s request to delay the ruling during its appeal.
The court said that FTC commissioners may not be fired by a president without cause, saying that the law on this point had been clear for nearly a century.
MAGA is Republican is MAGA. They don’t get to wash their hands of this.
They aren’t washing their hands, they are now all MAGA, and all the treason, corruption, and pedophilia that is the MAGA foundation is on their heads.
If you don’t glue them together, then someday we’ll have lots of Republicans claiming they were never MAGAs, and were always just poor, stepped on Republicans, as much victims of MAGA as anyone else.
Make them stake their position NOW. Which are you, Republican or MAGA?
