YOU'RE FIRED
President Trump just fired Gwynne Wilcox, the National Labor Relations Board Chair.
Wilcox says she will fight to overturn his decision, "As the first black woman board member, I brought a unique perspective that I believe will be lost upon my unprecedented and illegal removal. I will be pursuing all legal avenues to challenge my removal, which violates long-standing Supreme Court precedent.
President Trump's decision shocked the system because supposedly, NLRB members are "shielded from presidential removal", a notion that clearly violates the Constitution. There is no such thing as an "independent agency" of the federal government.
ALL agencies that wield executive authority are under the president's jurisdiction according to Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution: “The executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States.”
