This would be the second FBI Director he’s fired. I don’t think that’s ever happened before.

Kennedy? I’d almost let him pass and get swallowed up by the size and scope of that operation as well as his inevitable embarrassments.

Trump is now thinking about replacing him with DeSantis, Ernst, or Bill Hagerty.

Hmmm wonder why so many first term Trumpy appointees are absent?

If memory serves, Trump had the highest turnover rate his first year.

I cannot imagine anyone with even a teeny tiny ounce of morals would ever work for him.

My husband is anxiously awaiting the inauguration. He wants to see this huuuugggeee crowd again. Entertainers at the ball? He is openly betting on who does not show - including Biden.😉
