On Monday, the US Supreme Court decided in Trump v. Slaughter that the US Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) may not be independent anymore. Since 2000, the EU has relied on the “independent” FTC as the enforcer of EU-US deals on personal data. According to EU treaty law, such oversight must be independent. In the current EU-US deal, the European Commission relies on the independent FTC 259 (!) times.

Shits just getting started. This is just going to be one of many dominoes from this ruling to the ultimate demise of the USA, even if they do get rid of Trump.

This + Citizens United + President can't be charged for official acts = game over.

The presidency is no longer trust worthy, and now every US agency is no longer trust worthy.

FDA: The drug isn't safe

Trump: Approve it

FDA: The drug isn't safe

Trump: You're fired

FDA: The drug is the BEST DRUG WE'VE EVER SEEN!

Every single agency.

Germany needed the world to fix.

Europe can not just let this happen.
