In a BIG ruling, US Supreme Court 6-3 ALLOWS President Trump to FIRE Democrat FTC commissioner Rebecca Slaughter and ABOLISHES the rule that initially blocked him from doing so..
A nearly CENTURY-OLD precedent has just been overturned ..
Great! He is the CHIEF EXECUTIVE! ๐บ๐ธ

๐ ๐ฝ Q ! ! !
The Federal Reserve is not a branch of the government.
I think thats the point being made. These agencies (both the executive and the legislative ones) are independent, powerful, and largely unaccountable, so they are just completely rogue government agencies (i guess it is a stretch to call them branches). The point being that theres practically 0 checks and balances once these entities are created - which is just completely unacceptable. The whole thing is massively unconstitutional. Congress shouldnt just be able to create entities that create and enforce their own laws
The power within these rogue agencies oftentimes lies with career beurocrats and/or people who are "unfireable" for whatever woke reason
I thoroughly agree. Any entity created by Congress is part of the government. They have no power to create private entities that can interfere in the lives of citizens (such as by issuing currency or setting national interest rates). And if such entities have any functionality, they are ipso facto part of the Executive Branch.
Trump should say to the Fed, "Shut down and go home. The Treasury will be in charge of our currency and debt. Your building will be rendered for sale...or demolished if that is easier." (Well, it would be a great scene.)
That would make me soooo happy
100% agreed
FTC not federal reserve
You are correct though
EDIT: OH you're talking about the cook decision, my bad

In this case, their need for that exact cover works in our favor.
Agreed
While they aren't "branches" of the govt., still the same logic should be applied to the federal reserve as applies to FTC
Not part of the United States. It is part of the British Imperial Rothschildโs Central Banking System. Foreign National organization that can be shut down and kicked out of the United States.
I'd not want to wake up next to that...
YEAH!! looks like another dude in a dress!!
The Ace of Spades blog provided my favorite explanation of this:
"Liberal congresses passed laws to establish so-called 'independent agencies,' which are executive branch agencies intended to be independent from the very executive they're part of."
"This is plainly unconstitutional. The Constitution establishes that there is an Executive branch headed by a Chief Executive, the president, who is vested with all of the power of the executive branch of government. Congress may not set up fakey-fake 'independent' agencies which are part of the Executive and yet not part of the Executive."
"Today, an hour ago, the Supreme Court re-introduced the Constitution into constitutional law about firing the heads of 'independent' agencies."

If people agree that it is plainly illegal then it can not reside in the U.S. as it is not pursuant to the United States Constitution! Deport it. Send it back to FN City of London!
Holy fuck that thing is hideous.

Smashing archaic, outdated, purposeless rules is fundamental to conservatism
Yes, conservatives never argue that things need to be some way because they've always been that way (e.g. being opposed to same-sex marriage).

Can't win 'em all, I suppose:
Supreme Court rules Lisa Cook can remain at Fed for now https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/video/supreme-court-rules-lisa-cook-can-remain-at-fed-for-now/vi-AA26OyLS?ocid=TobArticle#
If a government employee doesn't answer to an elected official, they are part of a dictatorship.
I think you mean the employee's reporting chain. Otherwise, it would be too cumbersome (and the elected officials would be driven insane).
Good point.
I wonder if this now applies to ALL US Executive independent agencies?
The Supreme Court works in generalities, so that should be the case.
