Federal law protects the heads of these agencies from political interference by requiring presidents to show cause for their removal. But Trump claims those limits are unconstitutional and insists the president must be free to fire officials for any reason, or none at all.

Bottom line:
This isn’t budget policy, it’s a power grab. It strips judges of their ability to enforce the law and gives government officials a green light to ignore court orders. It’s authoritarian by design and it’s buried in the fine print.
