Supreme Court Hands Trump Sweeping Authority Over Federal Agencies
About this episode
The episode discusses the Supreme Court's ruling that grants Trump sweeping authority over federal agencies and its implications.
The Supreme Court just gave Trump the ability to dismiss the heads of supposedly independent agencies — overruling 91 years of precedent — with the exception of the Federal Reserve. Professor Richard Wolff and producer Nicole Roussell discuss the meaning of this ruling, as well as the birthright citizenship and campaign finance SCOTUS decisions this week. Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can find his work at rdwolff.com.
