Summary
The Supreme Court declined Donald Trump’s emergency request to immediately fire Hampton Dellinger, head of the Office of Special Counsel, while litigation continues.
Trump fired Dellinger on Feb. 7, but U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson temporarily reinstated him, citing legal protections requiring cause for removal.
The Justice Department argued that blocking the firing undermines presidential authority. The Court will reconsider the case after a Feb. 26 hearing.
The ruling marks the first Supreme Court response to Trump’s aggressive efforts to reshape government.
they are going to allow it when the news blows over.
Only keeping up appearances while THERE IS A FUCKING COUP
Firing all the military leadership Friday is a big red flag
I think Trump will fire him anyways because what is SCOTUS going to do? Hold him in contempt?
“Official Act”
This is the weapon they gave him. Hope they have a fun time with the leopards.
They get to interpret what an official act is, though.
