Since 1935, the presidency has been a hostage. A hidden ruling called Humphrey’s Executor v. United States created a shield around unelected bureaucrats buried inside so-called independent agencies. They could not be fired. Not by Congress. Not by the people. Not even by the Commander in Chief. These were the Deep State’s castles inside the government. Protected. Untouchable. Writing rules with the power of law while answering to no one. For decades, they dictated policy, destroyed accountability, and made every president a figurehead in his own house.

That ended this week.

In a ruling few expected but history will never forget, the Supreme Court confirmed that President Trump has full constitutional authority to remove Democratic commissioners Mary Boyle, Richard Trumka Jr, and Alexander Hoehn-Saric from the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The Court reminded the nation that executive power belongs to the President alone. Not to agencies. Not to boards. Not to faceless lawyers.

The 6-3 decision has detonated the foundation of bureaucratic immunity. Trump can now terminate any commissioner who obstructs reform, dismantle ideological mandates, and reclaim executive control over agencies that have operated like private empires. The ruling sets a precedent that can sweep through every corner of the federal maze — FTC, SEC, NLRB, CDC, FDA, DOE. Hundreds of unelected operators who hid behind the term “independent” are now exposed.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is only the beginning. Nearly 700 positions across Washington fall under the same model. With this judgment, Trump holds the legal weapon he was denied in his first term. The sword is back in his hands.

Inside the Deep State, panic has already begun. For decades, they didn’t need to win elections. They only needed to control who stayed behind. By embedding loyal operatives inside untouchable posts, they guaranteed their agenda survived every presidency. They wrote laws under the cover of regulation. They censored industries through “safety standards.” They shifted policy without ever standing for a vote. That structure is now collapsing.

This decision is not about staffing. It’s about sovereignty. The hidden coup that began ninety years ago has been reversed. The unelected state no longer outranks the elected one. The legal scaffolding that protected the regime is being dismantled piece by piece.

That is why the media is silent. They understand what this means. If Trump uses this authority — and he will — the entire architecture of shadow governance will fall. Agencies that weaponized policy for ideology will be stripped of power. Mandates will be rescinded. Political infiltrators will be removed. The Deep State’s invisible army is finally within reach.

Trump’s second term begins now, with the power he was denied in 2016. The presidency is no longer a cage. It is a command post. He can purge the administrative state, rebuild federal institutions that answer to the people, and restore a government that serves its citizens instead of its masters.

This is The Great Reclamation. The end of ninety years of executive humiliation. The day the balance returns. The Deep State buried the presidency under red tape and called it democracy. But the chains have been cut. And Trump now holds the axe.

SCOTUS has collectively lost a considerable number of functioning brain cells since that photo was taken.

It could never have been any other ruling.

There is nothing in our constitution about "independent executive branch federal agencies."

This is going to be awesome. The decline since the days of FDR will end abruptly!!

Stalin, Churchill, and FDR are each fuming in the grave. FDR even has feeling in his bones.

Anyone do a wellness check on sfp??

I think he argued in over 300 threads about Humphrey's executor being a correct ruling and Trump could not do what he did

This will be devastating to SFP. We specifically disagreed on whether an independent agency created by Congress was answerable to the Exec

He claimed only Congress had the power to make changes

6-3 you say?

Without reading the article, I'll say the 3 minority votes were the Not So Wise Latina, Justice DEI, and Kagan (or Roberts).

So true, yet three of the nine disagreed.

I believe a big part of the propaganda objective over my lifetime was down playing the importance of Supreme Court Justice selections.

Those 3 activist hogs are completely erasing any leftist judicial credibility. Literally vote party line regardless of Constitution. That's not a judge.

He’ll be along presently to tell us that-
A. SCOTUS got this one wrong
B. He never argued against this
C. The ruling doesn’t mean what we think it means

This ruling was in July. I'm not sure why it keeps getting dragged out and presented as "news" by random hack accounts time and time again, but it does. It gets dusted off and presented as a new development at least once a week.

Yep, they vote strictly on political views and don’t even try to justify it by the constitution. Their opinions should simply say “We dissent because we are liberal parrots”.

Wow! Huge good news!
Now we wait on the tariff situation opinion, not sure when this will come out. Trump, or should I say Dem appointed Judges, have kept SCOTUS quite busy this year!

I'm even more impressed that the Supreme Court works on Saturday.

And this "breaking" reporting appears to be about the temporary stay that SCOTUS ruled in favor of back in July. The actual case, which a ruling in favor of the Trump admin may or may not do what the OP states, hasn't even been heard yet.
