Federal Judge Rejects Trump’s NLRB Power Grab, Constitution Trumps Kings
Judge Howell’s decision invalidated the President’s attempt to remove a National Labor Relations Board member, citing a clear violation of law. The ruling emphasizes that presidential authority is not absolute and rejects the notion of a president operating with kingly or dictatorial powers. Howell asserted that the Constitution explicitly prevents such unilateral actions by the executive branch. This dismissal of the President’s actions underscores the limitations on presidential power as defined by Article II of the U.S. Constitution.
