I rarely sound alarm - but please: do not believe what you hear or read from the legacy outlets.
For US news - these either serve the WH by definition or are intimidated to serve (always their decision though)
For global news - US media spreads pro-RU, anti-EU views under “America First” label.

The next Democratic administration should expand the court.
There’s no other way to redeem SCOTUS at this point.

Supreme Court poised to expand Trump’s power over independent agencies
A ruling in favor of Trump’s position has been expected by legal experts because the justices have been chipping away at a precedent known as Humphrey’s Executor.

hey a fun thing is that if congress is delegating authority to an independent agency then by definition that agency is not "unaccountable." it is still accountable to congress. and it is interesting (read: extremely frustrating) to me that these people just write congress out of existence here.
Kavanaugh: Broad delegations to unaccountable agencies are dangerous for individual liberty! We have used the major questions doctrine to prevent agencies from overreaching.
