This is different from the Wilcox case. Trump fired her *pursuant to* the Roberts majority’s own agenda. Trump’s attempt to fire Cook is *in spite* of the Roberts majority’s agenda. He just thinks they’ll give him a pass so long as he gives them any pretext to get their quisling on.

Translation: Yo Roberts we all know Trump fired Cook over some pretextual garbage, but I know you’re gonna ostrich that so if you’re gonna reverse me, you’re gonna have to do it on my straightforward application of the law itself.

' Although the Court decides this issue on the ground that President Trump's stated cause falls outside the causes permissible under the statute and is not inquiring into the sufficiency of the evidence presented by President Trump, the Court notes that the allegations are ones to which Cook strenuously objects. See ECF 17 at 15.

Judge Cobb knows this thing’s prob won or lost on the shadow docket rather than the merits so she dares the Roberts majority and Kavanaugh to eat their own words on Fed independence when weighing the stay factors

First, Cook's retention on the Board of Governors does not offend the President's Article II authority in the way the officers' reinstatement was found to in Wilcox and Boyle. See supra n. 13. Wilcox's theory of harm was premised on the ground that the Government suffered from having a reinstated officer exercise the

Judge Katsas buys Trump’s bad-faith ginned-up narrative and tees it up for his SCOTUS buddies to do the same

The President plainly invoked a cause relating to Cook's conduct, ability, fitness, or competence. The allegations against Cook could constitute mortgage fraud if she acted knowingly, and that is a felony offense. See 18 U.S.C. §$ 1014, 1344.

If it had been proven, maybe that makes sense, but it hasn't been, and all evidence points to her having done nothing wrong and in fact stated the property as a vacation home, which undermines the allegation and the "cause" But we're not dealing with rational actors here.

I mean Lisa Cook and Trump, the narcissist, who's the criminal, and who's to be removed? The Supreme Court should be independent and non-partisan.
