The Supreme Court has granted an emergency request by the Trump administration allowing the president to fire leaders of most independent government agencies. The court’s 6-3 ruling clears the way for Trump to terminate National Labor Relations Board member Gwynne Wilcox, as well as Cathy Harris, a member of the Merit Systems Protection Board, which protects the rights of federal workers. The ruling includes a narrow carve-out protecting the independence of the Federal Reserve. Earlier this month, Trump rattled markets when he mocked Fed Chair Jerome Powell as a “fool” and a “major loser,” asserting he had the power to terminate him.
