Supreme Court has handed the Trump administration a series of legal victories

The Hill reported that as of this past Thursday, President Donald Trump’s administration has filed more emergency applications to America’s highest official body than his predecessor’s did in four years.

That has proven to be a jackpot strategy for Trump, with the Supreme Court handing him a series of major wins. 

President allowed to remove Democratic appointees from independent agencies

The most recent one came last week when a six-justice majority permitted the president to fire three Democrat-appointed members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

According to The Hill, that ruling came in the form of an emergency order which had been sought by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in response to an earlier decision issued by U.S. District Judge Matthew Maddox.

Maddox, who was nominated by President Joe Biden in 2023, ordered CPSC Commissioners Mary Boyle, Alexander Hoehn-Saric, and Richard Trumka Jr. to be reinstated as their case was being litigated.

The Supreme Court’s decision came just two months after it reversed a similar order which barred Trump from removing Democrat appointees from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB).
