The Supreme Court is standing with President Trump on a bold move against a bloated Democratic establishment. Trump has taken decisive action by dismissing two left-wing members of the Federal Trade Commission, a step that predictably threw the liberal elites into a tailspin, propelling them to the courts in protest. But justice is prevailing as the highest court grants the Trump administration the green light to proceed with these firings.
Democrats are crying foul, suggesting the president’s power should be hamstrung by a decades-old precedent born in the bygone era of 1935. It’s clear, however, that Trump is prepared to fight tooth and nail against an outdated system that aims to cripple his presidential authority. In a game-changing moment, the Supreme Court’s temporary stay illustrates a lean towards backing the president’s right to manage the executive branch without being shackled by bureaucratic red tape woven by the far-left.

One of the fired commissioners, offended at being rightfully dismissed, ran crying to the liberal courts for help. A D.C. Circuit Court, steeped in liberal bias, shockingly refused to support the administration’s efforts to expedite an appeal. But Trump’s team smartly took it to the next level, and the Supreme Court intervened, pausing the misguided reinstatement.
The heart of this matter? The president’s broad authority to fire. Plain and simple. Trump argues—and rightly so—that he should wield the power to dismiss federal workers as he sees fit. After all, if the nation’s top executive can’t manage his team, what sense of order is left in government? Yet, even in the face of sensible leadership, the liberals cling to their precious precedent, clutching it desperately as the final bastion of resistance against a president they despise.
The old Humphrey’s Executor ruling tries to handcuff the president, stemming from a bygone age—and it’s time to overturn it. The Supreme Court’s recent decisions regarding various other terminations across federal boards indicate they may agree with this revival of executive strength. If liberal judges can’t update their dusty rule books, then it’s high time the Supreme Court does it for them.
America needs a leader with the freedom to lead. Is it too much to ask that the president doesn’t have to kowtow to a clutch of unelected bureaucrats and liberal judges at every turn? The liberals whine and protest when true power is exercised, but Americans know it’s about time strong, decisive leadership reigned once more in the White House.
