The #Trump admin Wednesday asked #SCOTUS to allow the president to remove a pair of #independent #regulators whose cases have broad implications for at least two dozen other agencies, including the #FederalReserve Board, & for how the federal govt operates.
Trump has moved aggressively to seize greater control of the bureaucracy, ousting independent #watchdogs & removing the two #Democrats on the #FTC, which protects #consumers from deceptive practices & monopoly #power.
#Trump asks #SCOTUS to let him break the #law AGAIN – this time by illegally firing #independent #regulators
The cases test the boundaries of #PresidentialPower & involves Gwynne Wilcox of the National #Labor Relations Board #NLRB & Cathy A. Harris of the Merit Systems Protection Board #MSPB.

How many more deaths before #regulators pronounce half-baked #autopilot #driving systems as #scams?🤔
Who has seen the CEOs of #TeslaKills or #Xiaomi actually sit in their EVs with autopilot driving for real trips of an hour? I won't buy it till I see that! 🚫
Xiaomi #EV with driver assistance crashes, 3 reported #dead
"Xiaomi’s initial information showed the car was in the Navigate on Autopilot intelligent-assisted driving mode before the #accident & was moving at 116kmh"

There once were some carmakers, you see
Who colluded in ads, with no fee
The UK regulator fined
For the crime they designed
Now they'll all think twice, you'd agree
It’s nice to see the #regulators are no longer afraid of big companies

‘Senior figures at the 16 biggest 🇬🇧 #regulators for energy, water and financial services will be questioned twice a year by ministers over their plans to deliver #growth.
