A federal judge has ruled that former President Donald Trump acted illegally when he fired two Democratic members of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) board, Todd Harper and Tanya Otsuka.
The court ordered their immediate reinstatement, finding that the dismissals violated federal law governing the agency’s leadership. The decision marks a significant legal setback for Trump’s attempts to reshape independent regulatory bodies. Lawmakers, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, praised the ruling as a victory for the rule of law and the independence of financial regulators.
The case underscores ongoing tensions over presidential authority and the governance of federal agencies.
