The Supreme Court temporarily sided with President Trump, allowing him to remove the heads of the National Labor Relations Board and Merit Systems Protection Board without cause. A 6-3 decision granted a stay on a lower court ruling that deemed the firings illegal. The majority argued the government faced greater harm from allowing the removed officials to remain in power. The dissenting justices criticized the decision's speed and disregard for precedent. The case's implications for the Federal Reserve's independence remain a key concern, though the court distinguished the Fed's unique structure.
