The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on December 8, 2025, in Trump v. Slaughter, a case examining whether President Donald Trump may remove Federal Trade Commission member Rebecca Kelly Slaughter without cause. The justices’ questions suggested a sharp divide over limits on presidential power and the future of a 90‑year‑old precedent that has helped insulate independent agencies from at‑will firings.
