Fired Special Counsel Hampton Dellinger admitted he was ready to unleash hell on President Trump if the DC Circuit Court of Appeals didn’t stop him.
On Monday evening, the DC Circuit Court of Appeals issued a decision in the Hampton Dellinger case even though he did everything to stop the court.
The DC Circuit court judges Henderson (George W. Bush appointee), Millett (Obama appointee), and Walker (Trump appointee) ruled against Dellinger.
The Appeals Court, citing Seila Law and Collins, claimed the government satisfied its burden and said it would likely succeed in arguing the US President has the power to remove the head of an agency with a single top officer.
“On the first factor, the government has satisfied its burden. “[T]he Constitution prohibits even ‘modest restrictions’ on the President’s power to remove the head of an agency with a single top officer,” the judges wrote.
(“[T]he President’s power to remove ‘executive officers of the United States whom he has appointed’ may not be regulated by Congress or reviewed by the courts.”) they said.
This is precisely why Hampton Dellinger fought to stop the court from issuing a ruling.
This decision will likely impact other similar cases involving Cathy Harris and Gwynne Wilcox.
On Tuesday, in an interview with Mediaite founder Dan Abrams, Hampton Dellinger admitted he planned on filing a lawsuit to reinstate 200,000 probationary employees fired by President Trump.
“I knew that as soon as I was out the independence of the office was erased. And so the idea of trying to come back six months later or a year later and pick up the pieces just didn’t seem realistic to me. So I decided to fold,” Hampton Dellinger said.
“It killed me because I was on the verge, you know, this hasn’t been made public, but I’m happy to tell you and your audience, I would have gone in last Thursday or Friday on behalf of all 200,000 probationary employees who I think have been wrongfully fired,” Dellinger said.
Hampton Dellinger boasted about reinstating 6,000 probationary employees before the DC Circuit Court ruled against him.
“Last Wednesday, I got relief for 6000 of them, and then I got ousted but I was ready to go in for all of them, and it would have been the right thing to do. I think I would have got the court to rule for me, the, the board. And so I’m always going to be frustrated that I didn’t get to, to really go to bat for a couple hundred thousand employees,” he added.
