Who really controls the executive branch? In this episode of Unwritten Law, hosts Mark Chenoweth and John Vecchione break down a high-stakes legal battle over presidential power—Trump’s firing of Hampton Dellinger as head of the Office of Special Counsel.
The case sparked a fierce debate over whether the president can remove executive officials at will or if statutory “for-cause” protections limit his authority. The team unpacks Judge Amy Berman Jackson’s controversial injunction, the D.C. Circuit’s swift reversal, and why Supreme Court precedent—Seila Law and Collins—made this a clear win for Trump.
