Supreme Court Blocks Trump’s Effort To Fire Whistleblower Chief, Dellinger To Stay Until Feb 26

The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to fire whistleblower chief Hampton Dellinger. The Biden appointee will remain in his post at least until Feb. 26 as legal proceedings continue. Liberal justices opposed the firing, while conservative justices dissented, arguing the court overstepped.
