Jean Carroll (@ejeancarroll) June 29, 2026 Trump Wins Landmark Ruling Expanding Presidential Power In a significant victory for Trump, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that presidents have broader authority to remove members of independent federal agencies, overturning the nearly century-old precedent in Humphrey’s Executor v.

United States, Reuters reported in a separate article.

The ruling stemmed from Trump’s dismissal of Democratic Federal Trade Commission Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter.

The court, however, noted that the ruling does not threaten the Federal Reserve’s independence, citing the central bank’s unique historical status.

Trump hailed the decision on Truth Social, calling it “the Greatest Increase in Presidential Power in the last 100 years,” and later added that “90 years of precedent has been COMPLETELY AND UNEQUIVOCALLY OVERRULED.” Source: Truth Social Source: Truth Social Justices Reject GOP Challenge To Mail-In Ballot Deadline In another closely watched case, the Supreme Court voted 5-4 to uphold Mississippi’s law allowing mailed ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if they arrive within five days afterward, Reuters reported in another article.

Trump responded on social media by renewing his push for stricter election measures, including mandatory voter ID, proof of citizenship and tighter restrictions on mail-in voting, saying Congress should pass the SAVE AMERICA ACT.
