Supreme Court allows Trump to fire members of independent agencies — for now
Friday, 23 May 2025 () The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday granted the Trump administration's emergency request to fire the heads of two independent agencies. But the decision is technically a temporary one.
Yesterday the Supreme Court handed down what ought to have been an obvious and effortless decision acknowledging the executive authority of President Trump to fire executive branch officers--including Gwynne Wilcox (NLRB) and Cathy Harris (MSPRB)--without constraint by Congress or the courts--even...
In a 6–3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that President Trump had the authority to fire Biden-appointed officials Wilcox and Harris mid-term, weakening decades-old congressional protections over independent agencies. The decision—criticized by Justice Kagan—allows presidents to remove executive officers without cause, but excludes the Federal Reserve. Trump’s firings stalled the NLRB and Merit Board, halting key decisions. While the ruling marks a major shift in separation of powers, the Court says a final judgment is still pending.

A fifth round of Iran-U.S. nuclear talks wrapped up in Rome with minimal progress, as mediated by Oman. Iran’s Foreign Minister shared a photo with Oman’s FM, signaling diplomatic efforts despite rising tension. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff departed early, while technical discussions continued. Talks aim to restrict Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for lifting U.S. sanctions, but key issues remain—especially uranium enrichment. Iran vows to continue enrichment regardless of a deal. With no sixth round scheduled, the stalemate deepens, raising fears of escalation as Trump threatens military action.

President Donald Trump has unveiled a futuristic missile defense project named the ‘Golden Dome,’ inspired by Israel’s Iron Dome but designed for space warfare. With General Michael Guetlein of the US Space Force leading the initiative, the Golden Dome aims to use thousands of satellites to intercept threats. But can it defend against Russia’s Tsar Bomba—the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated? With only 2.4 miles separating the two countries at their closest point, the stakes are sky-high. Experts say ambition meets harsh reality in this high-tech showdown.
