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.
All of that but add in how we don’t have a Democrat party anymore either. From pathetic empowering of fascism for decades leading up to this, and utter servitude to Israel, to dark-money being used to reinforce liberal, capitalist ideals and zionism, to the complete lack of opposition against actual, real fascist takeover of our country, I think we can throw away the entire bathwater, baby and all.
