And the Supreme Court bows again.
Today, the Court ruled that Trump, and any future president, can fire members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission at will. That’s a federal agency Congress intentionally designed to be independent of political pressure.

Those are Social Security workers who help seniors get their checks on time, public health workers who keep us safe, and more.

Our national parks are in trouble.
Since Trump returned to office, the National Park Service has lost nearly a quarter of its full-time staff. That’s thousands of people who used to care for trails, run visitor centers, respond to emergencies, and protect the land, gone.
