Judge rules Trump cannot fire court-appointed prosecutors
Original: Judge rules Trump can’t fire court-appointed prosecutors
A federal judge has ruled that President Trump cannot dismiss court-appointed prosecutors, limiting the administration's authority over specially appointed legal officials. The decision, reported by Politico, is the latest in a series of courtroom clashes over the boundaries of presidential power, and it is likely to be appealed as the dispute over appointments and removals continues.
Why now: A court has directly curbed Trump's power over prosecutors, a consequential and ongoing legal-political conflict.
