This is who Trump is firing (thread 3 of 3):

(1/?) I previously made a post about the firing of the Commandant of the USCG, but it feels relevant now to discuss her qualifications and career as well.

Adm. Linda Fagan graduated from the Coast Guard Academy in 1985, and has served for 40 years.

United States support for Ukraine was never about securing mineral rights.

Or providing security for money.

It was about democracy and sovereignty. And a willingness to defend our allies and oppose our enemies.

Trump is betraying Ukraine, but also our values. Our history and our legacy.

EXCLUSIVE: Candidates for national security roles in the new administration have been posed loyalty questions, such as: Was Jan. 6 an inside job, and Was the 2020 presidential election stolen? They were asked to give straight "yes" or "no" answers. Here's our story.

He signs United States out of human rights organizations and gets El Salvador to agree to take American citizens. He’s planning to send political prisoners there. American citizens. Who all has he said he’d put in prison? He’s planning human rights violations.

Ok feds. Let’s go through this officious looking document that Elon and his kids are sending out. Initial reaction: splattering “whereas” and “wherefore” across a document does not make it legally binding or supported by a budget. We have entire contracting offices for a reason.

You’re going to see some news articles saying THOUSANDS of feds are resigning. Um. Ya. We do data. We know what 1% of 3 million looks like. And it's a damn sight smaller than 10%. Keep it up people! As Trump installs his amoral henchmen the American people need us more than ever. Hold the line.

Time to accept that we simply have a mad king. The guy slapping 25% tariffs on Canada's postage while calling for its annexation - and releasing scarce water into the Central Valley to fight already-contained fires in LA - isn't doing a bit or pursuing a secret, rational strategy

All of your most sensitive data and our country’s checkbook are in the hands of an unelected billionaire.

This is the most corrupt administration in history and it’s putting our economy & government in serious jeopardy.

It’s time to speak out and fight back.

After American airspace was closed on 9/11, over 230 flights with 30,000 passengers and crew were diverted to Canadian airports. Transport Canada received thousands of calls from members of the public offering to help the stranded passengers.

Thinking about that today, for no particular reason.

It’s a coup. That’s what’s happening. It doesn’t matter if it’s only been two weeks. Impeachable offenses aren’t like wine. They don’t need to age.
If Dems don’t call it impeachable now, it won’t be effective to call it impeachable later. Go on record now.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives
