Trader Joe’s, SpaceX, and Meta are arguing in lawsuits that government agencies protecting workers and consumers—the NLRB and FTC—are “unconstitutional.”

Trader Joe’s has become the second company in a month to sue the National Labor Relations Board for being “unconstitutional,” following the lead of Elon Musk’s SpaceX, as both companies face board charges for firing employees. These two major corporations aren’t alone in attempting to protect their interests by undermining public institutions; Meta is also arguing in an ongoing lawsuit that the Federal Trade Commission is unconstitutional.

A legal expert told Motherboard that these companies are attempting to take advantage of what they believe is a friendly Supreme Court—judges currently lean right by a six-to-three margin—while they can.

      Bill Clinton killed off any rejection of Reagan. The rest is the lack of any political structure beyond the state and corporations.

        obama and clinton personallly interfered with, and prevented his being chosen by the DNC at the DNCs request in 2016.

        obama the conservative prevented progress by enabling other conservative democrats to endorse the conservative hillary over bernie.

        fuck obama
