Summary
Trump’s recent firings of independent agency heads have triggered legal battles that could lead the Supreme Court to overturn Humphrey’s Executor v. United States (1935), which protects certain officials from at-will removal.
Critics argue Trump is deliberately provoking a test case to expand presidential power.
The DOJ now refuses to defend for-cause removal protections, aiming to bring independent agencies under direct presidential control.
With conservative justices signaling support for revisiting the precedent, the Court may soon decide whether to uphold or dismantle these long-standing protections.
Because Trump said no abortions. That’s literally it, it doesn’t really get deeper. As long as he says “yeah sure no abortions” they will follow him into oblivion. He’s doing “god’s will” and everything, even the existence of this country comes second to that. They do not want a free democracy, they want a Christian ethnostate.

I’ve never met an actual Christian in America. They’re all fake as fuck, and there’s nothing about abortion in the Bible. It’s one of the easiest moral questions, one that ethicists don’t even bother to debate anymore: no, we shouldn’t force women and children to give birth to rape babies. wtf.
There’s something that might be about abortion in the bible, but it’s about how to perform one in case of adultery
In saving babies they’re going to kill so many more people. More disease, more hunger, more depression and suicide, more desperation and violence are on their way. They’ve ensured every fetus will live long enough to regret being born.
They don’t give a fuck about babies, cause if they did, they’d offer welfare programs to help struggling parents.
It was never about saving babies, it’s about controlling women.
That and capitalism needs meat to feed the system. There’s a reason they also want to privatize education, make buying a house impossible, profit off grocery prices until you can only afford your daily McDonald’s ration. The wealthy need wage slaves to continue to their class dominance or the pyramid collapses
They’ve been so well trained by the conservative propaganda machine that this doesn’t even compute for them. Or they do enough mental gymnastics to convince themselves that the people dying deserve it. My sibling was one of the federal workers cut by musk. We were hoping that musk hurting one of their kids directly would wake them up. But no, elon is going to save america, we have no idea what we are talking about. They didn’t even know who this guy was before November. It’s like their brains were hacked, I can’t explain it any other way. When I was little, my dad would tell us that we were all made in god’s image and that no matter who, we all deserved a happy life. Now he tells us about how he’s suspicious of the “immigrants” at the supermarket. They’ve changed so much it breaks my heart
Fighting for equal rights versus drifting with the tide of religion and right wing politics. They got old. They’re tired. This way is so much easier. And I’m assuming they’re relatively wealthy white people so probably nothing will happen to them.
I believe theres a word for it… like Natural selection or fuck around and find out.
It’s called Eugenics. They think the “white race” will be the sole survivors if they remove all safeguards.
