The Supreme Court ruled against President Donald Trump’s effort to remove Federal Reserve Board member Lisa Cook on Monday, even as the justices expanded presidential power to remove members of the Federal Trade Commission and other independent agencies.
The two decisions written by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr — a 5-4 opinion in favor of Cook and a 6-3 opinion allowing Trump to fire FTC commissioner Rebecca Slaughter — reshape the bounds of presidential control over the executive branch
