'[W]e don't go around just creating independent agencies. More often we destroy independent agencies.”'

I love our liberal judges.

I know this is scary with RFK Jr, but it would be worse if SCOTUS went against this. RFK Jr won't be around forever (and if Hegseth is an indication, maybe not even until the end of the year) but a SCOTUS decision would be.

Or not, since SCOTUS has signaled precedent no longer applies.

Thanks, Chris. I think this is the best we can hope for.

Did the Justices' questions give any clue about how they'd rule on Trump firing Powell or other firings in apparent violation of statute?

As a Canadian (with free health care for decades), it is mind boggling (I am not sure that I can properly convey the "what is wrong with this system?!?" sentiment) to see all of this critical time, with an already crowded docket, wasted on this sort of nonsense which would be obviated if US citizens had the health care they deserved.
