“YOU’RE FIRED!” – President Trump Announces Removal Of 1,000+ Biden Appointees


President Trump announced the firing of over a thousand appointees from the Biden administration.

“Our first day in the White House is not over yet! My Presidential Personnel Office is actively in the process of identifying and removing over a thousand Presidential Appointees from the previous Administration, who are not aligned with our vision to Make America Great Again,” Trump said.

“Let this serve as Official Notice of Dismissal for these 4 individuals, with many more, coming soon: Jose Andres from the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition, Mark Milley from the National Infrastructure Advisory Council, Brian Hook from the Wilson Center for Scholars, and Keisha Lance Bottoms from the President’s Export Council—YOU’RE FIRED!” he added.

From the New York Post:

Meanwhile, the 47th president also culled former diplomat Brian Hook from the Wilson Center for Scholars and former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms from the President’s Export Council in his late night purge.

Separately, Trump also ordered federal workers to return to the office five days a week and weakened job protections for civil servants on Monday — the first salvoes in his campaign to gut the federal bureaucracy.

Trump’s allies have said the return-to-work mandate and the stripping of civil service protections – widely known as “Schedule F” – is intended to help the president replace long-serving government workers with loyalists.

Per Newsweek:

The decision is part of the new president’s overarching MAGA agenda to “drain the swamp” and destroy the “deep state.” So far, that has included creating the new Department of Government Efficiency, tasked with cutting the federal budget, as well as implementing a hiring freeze for all federal civilian employees, per executive orders signed by Trump on his first day in office.

As part of this agenda, numerous Biden-era officials and individuals perceived as unsupportive of Trump are expected to be removed and replaced with members of Trump’s inner circle or loyal allies. This follows Trump’s warnings on the campaign trail about “enemies from within.”

In addition, the president’s plans include unraveling much of Joe Biden’s legacy, with Trump having already rescinded 78 executive orders issued during Biden’s tenure.
