NEW YORK, March 18 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump fired two Democratic commissioners at the U.S. Federal Trade Commission on Tuesday, in another major test of the independence of regulatory agencies.
A White House official confirmed the firings of Democratic Commissioners Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Kelly Slaughter after they were first reported by Reuters, but had no additional comment.

Is this an actual firing or a thing like the nlrb or whistleblower where it is illegal and gets reversed. I remember Biden not being able to fire R commissioners from their positions being a reason for certain things not getting done.
