Unitary Executive Theory, FTC Personnel Firing
President Trump fired a member of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) whose term was not yet expired, reportedly to trigger a Supreme Court case regarding the "unitary executive theory." This legal theory posits that the president should have absolute control over all executive branch agencies, potentially allowing for the removal of independent agency heads and civil service employees without cause.
