President Donald Trump embraced the Supreme Court‘s decision in Trump v. Slaughter that expands his executive power to fire members of some independent federal bodies.

“BIG WIN just moments ago at the Supreme Court, in the Slaughter Case, confirming Presidential Power in our Country to remove Executive Branch Officers and Agency Appointees, or Representatives, under Article II,” Trump wrote on Truth Social in reference to the Constitution. “This Decision was long sought by United States Presidents, dating all the way back to the 1930s.”
