The Supreme Court on Monday ruled that removal protections for members of the Federal Trade Commission are unconstitutional and overturned a 90-year-old decision that allowed Congress to shield members of certain independent agencies from being fired by the president at will.

The decision from the high court expands the president’s power over many independent boards and commissions, which Congress had insulated from political pressure by saying their members could only be removed by the president for cause.

    I mean, you’re supporting their choice while also yelling at people for refusing to support that choice? One you admit was an abysmal choice?

    Like vote how you want idc but don’t discourage people from voting for someone who is a better candidate.

        You asked why I was attacking you when it was not your choice but the DNC’s choice.

        You chose theirs, are attacking those who didn’t, while admitting it was a bad choice.

        That’s why. Sorry it was poorly worded.
