Maggie and former U.S. Attorney Jim Santelle unravel the Supreme Court's shadow docket ruling, enabling President Trump to fire certain federal officials without cause, overturning 90 years of precedent. They delve into the alarming implications for agency independence, emphasizing the risk to everyday Americans if agencies become political tools. This hour also covers Trump's DOJ political prosecutions, firing a Trump-loyal U.S. Attorney for not indicting his foes, and replacing him with an inexperienced loyalist. With government shutdown threats looming, the conversation highlights the real-world impact of political power struggles on public health and governance.
