You don't think Trump admin would want at least a few appellate judges on their side before going to SCOTUS?

This is correct. Months ago perhaps there was a reason to hope that if smart people stayed they could be a voice of reason. It is now clear their voice will not be heard, and the best thing they can do is disassociate as loudly as possible so ppl (GOP Senate) can't later say "I had no idea."

CNBC reports there will be a hearing in the Lisa Cook matter tomorrow morning.
Ivan the K ™☑️ (@ivanthek.bsky.social)
Interesting nugget in Lisa Cook's lawsuit against Donald Trump: The entire Fed Board, and Jay Powell, in their respective professional capacities are also defendants. It looks like she's doing that because the relief that she seeks includes restraining the Fed Board from terminating her.
