put aside that Myers itself was dubious (the dissenters included Holmes and Brandeis and one of McReynolds good opinions) ... but that is my aside ... we are stuck with the law as it is, especially with the Roberts Court's (bad) gloss (again, Kagan is right). #SCOTUS #Trump #LegislativePower
There’s an opposing argument here on removal of the librarian. If LOC is legislative, under Myers, President does not have removal authority. This also gets to what Intercollegiate Broadcasting says or does not say. Thanks @tphillips.bsky.social But I lean toward presidential removal being allowed.

Mexico’s Legislative Power is in Congress, a body with two heads with the Chamber of Deputies & the Senate. It creates, reforms, and repeals laws, ensuring democracy and balance. From budget approval to presidential oversight, Congress shapes the nation’s future. #Mexico #LegislativePower
