The Supreme Court gives the right a huge victory over expertise - The Washington Post

"A rule of judicial humility gives way to a rule of judicial hubris," she wrote. She later added another pointed criticism: "In one fell swoop, the majority today gives itself exclusive power over every open issue — no matter how expertise-driven or policy-laden — involving the meaning of regulatory law." 

"As if it did not have enough on its plate," Kagan continued, "the majority turns itself into the country's administrative czar." 

The decision is unquestionably a function of the business-friendliness of the conservative majority. Revoking Chevron means that businesses frustrated by regulations don't have to appeal to scientists and bureaucrats but can, instead, hire lawyers and talk to judges — terrain where their odds of success are much higher in part because the judges aren't subject-matter experts…

Trump’s Open Plot to Break the Federal Government - The Atlantic

Perhaps the most striking aspect of the right-wing push to dismantle the federal civil service is how open its conservative leaders are about their designs. They are not cloaking their aims in euphemisms about making government more effective and efficient. They are stating unequivocally that federal employees must give their loyalty to the president, and that he or she should be able to remove anyone insufficiently devoted to the cause. The fundamental structure of the executive branch, and the independence with which many of its agencies have operated for decades, these conservatives argue, represents a misreading of the Constitution and a usurping of the president's power…

Trump Plans to Expand Presidential Power Over Agencies in 2025 - The New York Times

Donald J. Trump and his allies are planning a sweeping expansion of presidential power over the machinery of government if voters return him to the White House in 2025, reshaping the structure of the executive branch to concentrate far greater authority directly in his hands. 

Their plans to centralize more power in the Oval Office stretch far beyond the former president's recent remarks that he would order a criminal investigation into his political rival, President Biden, signaling his intent to end the post-Watergate norm of Justice Department independence from White House political control. 

Mr. Trump and his associates have a broader goal: to alter the balance of power by increasing the president's authority over every part of the federal government that now operates, by either law or tradition, with any measure of independence from political interference by the White House, according to a review of his campaign policy proposals and interviews with people close to him...

The Supreme Court's next target is the executive branch

There are many ways for the conservative court to rein in federal agencies, and while there may not be a clear consensus on precisely which of those avenues to take at any given moment, one way or another, federal agencies exerting broad-based powers are already losing — and are almost certainly going to keep losing...

DOJ tells court that Congress can't sue to enforce subpoenas | TheHill

The Trump administration told a federal judge on Thursday that Congress cannot sue the executive branch, attempting to fight off a House committee's subpoena for documents related to aborted efforts to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census.
