The US Supreme Court is to hear an appeal by Donald Trump of a ruling by Colorado's top court that would keep him off the presidential primary ballot in the state
The Supreme Court gifted President Donald Trump another win in his effort to purge government workers.
In an unsigned order published on Wednesday, the court said Trump can fire three Democratic members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, a federal body that is responsible for monitoring the safety of kids' toys and other products. Trump has tried to remove the three commissioners since May. The case could return to the Supreme Court on appeal.
Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts said the decision was "squarely controlled" by another decision where the court allowed Trump to fire a lawyer on the National Labor Relations Board without cause.
Justices Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.
