Alyse Adamson: Supreme Court Will Likely Rule in ‘Trump Admin.’s Favor’ on Watchdog Firing Powers

‘This is going to be a test of the separation of powers’

RUSH EXCERPT:

ADAMSON: "I do think that we have seen, um, an extreme expansion in the interpretation of executive power. And this is a real test. Uh, there‘s a federal law that created this office of special counsel, in Congress, tried to, uh, make very clear the reasons why an individual could be terminated. They tried to outline this. And so this is going to be a test of the separation of powers. And so I think we can expect to see this court continue on their streak of their interpretation of executive power. And I do think there is a chance that the Supreme Court will rule in the Trump Administration‘s favor in this case for those reasons."
