This will be the death of the US as a world power Judgement is hear

 

Federal Trade Commission (FTC): On September 8, 2025, the court paused a district court order that had reinstated a Democratic FTC commissioner who was fired by the Trump administration. The move challenges a 1935 precedent that limited a president's power to fire FTC members.

Supreme Court allows temporary firing of FTC commissioner

 

On September 8, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court temporarily blocked lower-court rulings that had reinstated Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, a Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), allowing President Donald Trump to fire her for now. Chief Justice John Roberts issued an administrative stay to give the court more time to consider the Trump administration's appeal. 

What happened

President Trump fired two Democratic FTC commissioners, Rebecca Kelly Slaughter and Alvaro Bedoya, in March 2025.

Slaughter sued, and a district judge ruled in her favor, ordering her reinstated.

An appeals court affirmed that ruling last week, leading the Trump administration to file an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court.

On September 8, Chief Justice Roberts issued an administrative stay that paused the lower courts' rulings and prevented Slaughter from continuing her work.

Slaughter had briefly returned to her post after the appeals court decision, but the administrative stay removes her from her position until the full court can weigh in. 

What's at stake

A 1935 precedent: This case directly challenges a 90-year-old Supreme Court precedent, Humphrey's Executor v. United States. That ruling established that the president's power to fire officials of independent agencies like the FTC is limited.

Presidential power vs. independent agencies: The Trump administration argues that the modern FTC has "vast executive authority," giving the president the power to remove commissioners at will. The administration has also successfully sought to remove officials from other independent agencies this year.

Separation of powers: The legal conflict centers on the constitutional balance of power, specifically whether Congress can create independent agencies shielded from presidential control.

Legal battle to continue: Slaughter's legal challenge will proceed, with her lawyers required to respond to the administration's arguments by next week. The final outcome is still undecided, but the administrative stay is a temporary win for the Trump administration.

The end times

IT IS SO SAID AND HEART BREAKING, WHERE THE CHURCH IS TODAY

I anticipated challenges, but the speed at which things are deteriorating is beyond my expectations. Let's pray for repentance within the church and for its leadership. Many are straying and turning away from the light. Nevertheless, we trust that the Father has everything under control; He is the Lord and Savior. Your commitment to the light will yield positive outcomes.
