The Supreme Court’s oral arguments in Trump v. Slaughter on December 8, 2025, produced strong signals that a majority of justices are prepared to limit or overrule Humphrey’s Executor and uphold the president’s authority to remove FTC commissioners without statutory cause. The Court has already permitted the firings of Rebecca Slaughter and another Democratic appointee to take effect through interim stays while granting certiorari before judgment. These developments, combined with the Court’s 6-3 conservative composition and recent separation-of-powers precedents expanding executive removal power, have driven trader consensus that the final ruling will favor the administration. The case remains pending with a decision expected by the end of the October 2025 term.
