Dept. of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Director Fired
- Thread starter Pikachu
- Start date
No one would ever be fired. Quite amazing to think about, actually. Twitter ever goes down, his administration could do whatever they wanted because they know he can't fire somebody to their face.
That's future staring center for the Los Angeles' Lakers to you.
by saying "THE ELECTION WAS SUPER PERFECT AND THE BEST EVER BUT ALSO THE DEMOCRATS STOLE IT"?
Like yes, he's trying to get it overturned, but he's an idiot with no evidence. He's living in paradox-land.
25th would have to be done by his cabinet full of sycophants.
Because for a lot of them, they don´t care who ¨their" guy is as long as it keeps the status quo for their privilege. Humans are selfish, always have been.
Zero. Criminal proceedings don't move that quickly. But he'll be hit by an absolute avalanche of lawsuits and possibly criminal charges the moment he is out of office.
No doubt he will be replaced by a Trump loyalist stooge who will confirm the bogus election allegations.
Yes as I said I know why it won't ever happen now, because there's basically 0 chance of another amendment being made to the usa constitution at this point without a 2nd civil war or something causing it to be done, but the fact is that the horse shit stopped a long time ago and there were amendments since then, the fact america didn't think to maybe just fix that shit in general anytime since the invent of trains and cars is dumb and now it's biting america in the ass.
To be fair.. he fucking made it to the president saying shit like this.. it is beyond any sort of WTF you can think of that this evil fucking person.. has convinced so many people to not think he is flat out nuts.
I know how often we've been reminded that Trump has no legal case and is flailing like a dying pig, but I'll be honest: I'm starting to get nervous.
Because Trump fired his 100th+ executive branch member for disloyalty? Because he fired someone from an agency that has only existed for two years?
Krebs didn't deserve to get fired, but political appointees transitioning out in the November and December prior to a new administration isn't earth-shattering. (And honestly, Krebs did a great job at CISA, and he ought to be brought back.)
Cleaning house at the Pentagon was more problematic.
More to the point, installing the craven Nunes aide as General Counsel at the NSA, which is a career position -- and doesn't require Senate confirmation -- is even more problematic, since that will last past January.

Probably not, they'll use the excuse he is a candidate for 2024.
Ironic thing is the guy expected to be fired.

Election officials contradict Trump's voter-fraud conspiracy theories
A group of national, state and private election officials said in a joint statement Thursday that there is no evidence of any voting system being compromised in the 2020 election despite President Donald Trump's deluge of election fraud conspiracies.

Yes yes YES FUCK YES x50000. Populism is rising and if we continue having populist presidents in the future, they could do more damage than we could ever imagine. I mean we're kind of scared what will happen in the next 10 weeks before Trump is gone...

Extended Christmas holidays then rehired.
I'm glad there are still people willing to do their jobs even if they know their position is on the line. Conversely, we've got such spineless yes men and women who would rather appease a dictator than uphold values and morals. So disgusting.Ironic thing is the guy expected to be fired.

I've always wondered do all these places just run as normal when the head goes, if the boss is respected or liked, the underlings aren't going to go off his script or basically well, we aren't going to change things because work isn't that easy to change, we have lots in the pipe to get through.
I mean, he knows in his own mind he's got nothing to lose now. He will grind every axe imaginable before he is out.
As a liberal I do want my people in these positions but I'm wondering if maybe we should be protecting Republicans with spines instead of taking advantage of their situation. Like I'd be ok with this guy getting his job back in January. I'm ok with us not running a challenger in GA for Secretary of State. People laugh when there's talk about appointing Republicans to cabinet positions and shit but if sensible Republicans are going to get dunked on by both their own party and our party to the point they have no futures and career paths I think we'll just be contributing to the GOP becoming even more insane faster.
And Democrats should totally be impeaching Trump right now.
And Democrats should totally be impeaching Trump right now.
Agreed. Especially since a Republican Senate will--mark my words--attempt to impeach Biden during the next year or two. Gloves are already off. The Dems need to realize that.
I'll mark them because impeachment proceedings need to start in the House, but if we lose the House in the midterms 2 years from now maybe.
Absolutely. They didn't get it right the last time they changed it from March to January.
Yeah lame duck period needs to be merely a "maintenance" period. Your job is to just make sure the wheels don't fall off until the next admin in. but no nominating judges, not firing people without cause, no do random executive orders. You only have to keep things running smoothly. Obviously if war breaks out or something you act, but otherwise you should be extremely limited in power.
The current duration of the transition period was decided on in 1933, when telephones very much did exist. It used to last until March before.
not taking anything off the table at this point but that would be most saddest pathetic political offense since... fuck i dunno when (barring what's transpiring right this minute)
maybe they can latch onto a used dental floss of some hunter/china thing i guess but i don't think it'll be a issue
On the bright side, a lot of the people he'd pardon haven't been charged with anything yet. And most of those can be dragged by state crimes anyway.
And they could do that with statute without modifying the Constitution.
Of course, Republicans would never pass anything like this even though these are very Conservative proposals.
