The "separation of powers" came from Montesquieu's understanding of the way that the U.K. worked.</p><p>But it didn't work that way at the time, and we didn't in fact realize what (others thought that) Montesquieu thought that we had until 2005 when the Lord Chancellor was *finally* split into its legislative, judicial, and executive parts. Even now, we are still a monarchy and the "separate" powers still emanate from one person.</p><p>Moreover, the Founders did anticipate such things. They wrote about "tyrants" quite a lot, in fact. Remember the "refreshing the tree of liberty with the blood of patriots and tyrants" thing? That was old Tommy son of Jeff.

KProfsBlog<p>A quick post on Dellinger v. Bessent, in which a District Court upheld the power of Congress to protect some federal employees by statute. This will shoot up to SCOTUS and might be an opportunity for it to revisit Humphrey’s Executor. The Court is poised to embrace an extreme version of the Unitary Executive theory, which would allow the President to terminate any federal employee, even those whom Congress tried to insulate from caprice.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/contracts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>contracts</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/FederalWorkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FederalWorkers</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Litigation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Litigation</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ConstitutionalLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ConstitutionalLaw</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SCOTUS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SCOTUS</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://lawprofessors.typepad.com/contractsprof_blog/2025/03/district-court-finds-white-house-cannot-first-independent-counsel-by-executive-order.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">lawprofessors.typepad.com/cont</span><span class="invisible">ractsprof_blog/2025/03/district-court-finds-white-house-cannot-first-independent-counsel-by-executive-order.html</span></a></p>
