Trump's DOJ ready for Supreme Court to overturn 90-year-old precedent

Donald Trump is already making sweeping changes in order to repair the damage liberals did to this country during Joe Biden's tenure, and he may have found his next target:

A 1935 Supreme Court precedent protecting the independence of federal agencies.

MSNBC reports that Trump's administration is ready to ask the Supreme Court to overturn the 90-year-old precedent.

In a letter she wrote on Feb. 12, the Justice Department's acting solicitor general, Sarah Harris, indicated that the Department of Justice is ready to ask the Supreme Court justices to ditch the case.

The 1935 ruling, in the case of Humphrey's Executor v. United States, has long upheld agency independence.

That's a problem for Trump and his newly created Department of Government Efficiency.

Trump is trying to weed out corrupt, overpaid, underworking employees in the federal government.

Unfortunately, many of these government employees don't want to lose their comfy positions, so there's been quite a bit of pushback from the left against Trump making the government more efficient.

Getting rid of the 1935 ruling would make it easier for Trump to transform America's federal government from a bloated mess to an efficient machine.

According to MSNBC, "Harris wrote that the DOJ will no longer defend statutory tenure protections for members of the Federal Trade Commission, National Labor Relations Board and Consumer Product Safety Commission. She noted that protections for members of those agencies relied on Humphrey’s Executor, but said the DOJ now thinks those protections are unconstitutional. To the extent that that precedent stands in the way of the government’s new stance, she wrote, the department will ask the justices to overturn it."

The letter simply outlines the DOJ's future plans, nothing is official yet.

It remains to be seen how or when Trump's administration could present a challenge to the 90-year-old precedent to the Supreme Court.

There are a few cases pertaining to the issue currently in lower courts that could eventually be escalated to the Supreme Court, giving Trump's administration a chance at seeing the precedent overturned.
