I don't think so either, how many Libertarians has JB put in to lead federal agencys? ZERO! DJT could have felt possibly throwing him under the bus was not as important as taking another shot for a possible overruling of Humphreys Executor (that would be a feather in the cap for the Federalist Society!) and increasing his power at some possible future time.

I was thinking today a late June ruling from the SCOTUS would probably please the conservative leaning majority SIMPLY BECAUSE JB DURING JUSTICE THOMAS' PUBLIC LYNCHING (REMEMBER ANITA HILL?) PUT THE CONTENTIOUS USSCT SENATE CONFIRMATION PROCESS IN MOTION THAT MCCONNELL VOWED TO CARRY ON IF HE WAS EVER HEAD OF THE SENATE MAJORITY.

The Senate Confirmation of USSCT Justices used to be very civil, but when JB decided to turn it into a chance to assinate their characters and try to dig up ANY possibility of a human beings imperfect life and turn it into a media circus to somehow score political points and embarrass them, well even ACB (who has lived an extremely saintly life) found the whole Senate Confirmation process unpleasant and tacky and we all remember what happened with Kavanaugh.

So my point is, why not wait until late June to let JB have the ability to fire MC at will?

Whether that's even a factor of when they decide to rule seems far fetched but after several of the Justices had to unnecessarily go through such uncivilized Senate Confirmation Hearings it wouldn't surprise me that they may like to throw him this bone later versus sooner.
