Trump v. Cook · ¶165
Today’s decision is an unprecedented incursion on the Executive Branch. Neither the parties nor the Court can point to a single time in American history that this Court has upheld an injunction against the President’s removal of an executive officer. In the 237-year history of our Constitution, this Court has, by all accounts, never done so. See Bessent v. Dellinger, 604 U. S. ___, ___ (2025) (GORSUCH, J., dissenting from order holding application in abeyance) (slip op., at 4) (recounting the lack of historical precedent for such an order).Read in context ›
