BREAKING: SCOTUS HANDS TRUMP TOTAL POWER — EXECUTIVE PURGE BEGINS NOW!

The Supreme Court just obliterated the Deep State’s final line of defense — granting President Trump FULL authority to fire the heads of “independent” federal agencies. No more delays. No more red tape. No more protection for unelected traitors. The court declared: Trump is the Executive Branch. Period.

Gwynne Wilcox (NLRB) and Cathy Harris (MSPB) are the first to face removal. Behind them, a long list of Biden operatives await the axe. The administrative state is collapsing in real time.

This is not a “legal clarification.” This is an all-out constitutional reset — ripping power away from shadow bureaucrats and returning it to the man elected to wield it. Article II of the Constitution — restored.

Trump is no longer fighting with one hand tied.

He can now terminate every disloyal bureaucrat, dismantle fake oversight boards, and vaporize the swamp creatures who’ve worked for years to sabotage America First from inside the system.

The ruling sends shockwaves through the Deep State:

• No more court interference
• No more Congressional shielding
• No more “independent” excuses

Every agency now answers to Trump.

The strategy of the Left — to bury Trump in legal warfare and block him with slow-walking loyalists — just detonated in their faces. Their lawfare fortress is in ruins. The SCOTUS decision cuts off the Deep State at the neck.

The Fourth Branch has fallen.

This is the legal decapitation of the administrative coup that’s hijacked power for decades.

What comes next?

Terminations. Restructuring. Loyalty enforcement.

Trump is set to unleash the largest purge in American political history. Those who’ve betrayed the republic from within will no longer hide behind titles or obscure agency walls. The President now holds the sword — and he’s swinging.

A top Trump insider put it bluntly:
“This ruling doesn’t just restore executive power — it clears the battlefield.”

Every traitor in federal government just got marked.

The days of unelected tyrants mocking the will of the people are over.
The mask is off. The time for war inside the system is here.
And Trump just got the green light to take them all down.

Buckle up. The storm just got teeth.
The purge begins NOW.


How many decisions have been overturned at this point?
There needs to be severe consequences for these lower courts who continuously overstep or rule erroneously.

Executive branch agencies should’ve always been led by the executive

Well, these agencies are Congressional creations, and the debate is over how much control they have in establishing those creations.

You're basically removing key Constitutional powers of Congress here. That's the debate.

They ruled back in May...

Supreme Court allows Trump to remove agency heads without cause for now

Maybe that's what this is referring to? Seems more click-baity that anything else.

There's really no debate.

If congress creates something and places it under the executive, then it's UNDER THE frickING EXECUTIVE

So, you're telling me that the President of the United States has more authority than some little local shitass liberal judge?

It’s been ripped away by these bureaucrat agencies. Congress doesn’t even write laws anymore. They delegated that shite to these deep state agencies.

That's what I figured he was saying, and it wasn't a ruling on the merits.

Just read the language of the tweet and that's pretty obvious

Congress over several generations and multiple administrations has ceded their power to these unelected “expert” bureaucrats - thus the current separation of “administration” from the political process and being held accountable via consent of the governed.

It’s Woodrow Wilson’s legacy.

The executive only has power (in this context) because Congress granted it power, though. I'll put this in another way, because Congress created the EPA, does that mean that the President can use those powers to regulate monetary policy, or is the President constrained to the limitations imposed by Congress in passing the legislation that created the EPA?

Generally? Sure

But that paradigm isn't really applicable to this particular situation, where Congress DID enact specific policies and did not delegate.

Slo do you remember several months ago when we talked about this? My position was if the President has the power to hire the person then he has that same power to fire that person. You argued that it was congress has the ultimate power.

It depends on the position.

If it's a seat where the President has exclusive authority to hire at will, then he has the exclusive authority to fire at will.

But things like, say, the Fed Chair, don't fit into that paradigm. Congress mandated 14-year terms in the foundational legislation. This wasn't wanton or random. There was an intentionality to decrease politization from the seat and permit the fed chair to withstand Presidential eruptions/policy desires.

The question is when did/does Congress lose the power to structure these agencies and the corresponding processes?
