Executive Summary
Supreme Court significantly expanded the president's power to fire heads of independent agencies, effectively overturning the long-standing 'Humphrey's Executor' precedent.
In a separate but related ruling, the Court made a specific exception for the Federal Reserve, blocking the immediate ouster of Governor Lisa Cook and reinforcing the central bank's unique, independent status.
These decisions are rooted in the 'unitary executive theory,' a legal doctrine that centralizes power within the presidency and reduces the autonomy of the regulatory state.
The Court also issued a surprising 5-4 decision upholding the counting of mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day, a significant ruling with implications for upcoming elections.
