In March 2025, President Trump dismissed FTC Commissioner Rebecca Kelly Slaughter via email, citing misalignment with administration priorities.

Host Laura Jarrett explores this issue with Kannon Shanmugam, a prominent legal expert and head of the Supreme Court practice, discussing constitutional limits on presidential power and the independence of federal commissions.
