"The conservative constitutional revolution is gaining speed," reports Bloomberg. Noah R. Feldman seems upset that the Supreme Court has "given" President Donald Trump the authority to fire the head of any agency for any reason.

A lot of people took issue with the idea that the Supreme Court "gave" Trump the authority.

It's strange … most people would say the federal government has grown too large, and yet they melt down the second any bureaucrat is fired. Shrink government, but don't fire anyone.

As someone said above, words mean things. The Supreme Court didn't "give" President Trump anything. But we're witnessing "a stunning conservative constitutional revolution." OK, buddy.
