This was totally expect-able. As usual, Trump shows himself to be a no-class act.
Go after the most vulnerable victim first, never mind that he was honorable and did his duty.

This is a feature of the Trump administration. It must be Trump before the country and the constitution.

Iām engaged in ārent scienceā, but this reassignment was mentioned last year.
Though he has the right to get sychopants, itās inevitable that he, Dobbs, Gutfeld, etc. will have something to say.

Humiliation was the goal here. If you donāt do a perp walk Aged Orange doesnāt get a hard on and therefore continues looking for more stimulation.
WH staffers wanted a quiet weekend and slunk out while Aged Orange was gloating .

Arenāt most people called by their former title without any ex in front of it?
God I think so. I would have resigned already had I been him, but I donāt know what the situation is with regard to pensions and so forth.

A great many people in the Executive Branch serve at the behest of the President. But a President deciding your services are no longer needed rarely results in being escorted from your office by security personnel.

Just not what we might want him to learn.

Only slightly off topic but I got a response from my email to Martha McSally just now and I thought I would share this bit of brain numbing drivel with everyone. I have removed my name in the interest of some privacy but that is all. I will say that this is the fastest turn around in Marthaās responses to my many emails Here is the whole text:
Dear XXXXX,
Thank you for contacting me regarding the impeachment of President Donald Trump.
Our Founding Fathers were clear that impeachment and conviction of a president is an extreme action of last resort, to be used for only the gravest offenses. By requiring a two-thirds vote in the Senate, the framers warned against impeachment as a political weapon by an oppositional party. Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi used to agree.
I voted against convicting President Trump of the two articles of impeachment. I opposed removing the president from office and the 2020 ballot as this outcome would have been deeply disruptive to the functioning of our government, further divided our nation, and would prevent the American people from deciding who their president should be at the ballot box. The American people collectively are better fit to judge Donald Trumpās presidency as a whole than the partisan politicians in Washington who brought forth this impeachment.
This presidential impeachment is historic for dangerous reasons. It is the first partisan House impeachment with bipartisan opposition. It is the first to deny procedural fairness protections to the president during the House inquiry. It was done in a mere 48 days with no serious attempt to fully resolve all separation of powers issues. This is a reckless precedent in its entirety, especially the Houseās attempt to force the Senate to do the work it should have completed before articles were ever sent over. This rushed, incomplete, and unfair process should never be repeated by either party in the future.
The President is not perfect, and the way he evidently attempted to address his legitimate concerns about corruption involving the Bidens was inappropriate. Even if all the House Democrats allege is accurate, even if John Bolton supports their allegations in his book, even if other negative information comes out in the future, this does not rise to anywhere near the level of throwing the president out of office or off the ballot for the first time in American history. Beyond that, House Democrats failure to exhaust all available avenues to obtain witnesses and records, by definition, invalidated their frivolous charge of obstruction of Congress. This entire matter, ultimately, should have been handled via the normal oversight processes available to Congress with subpoena disputes resolved in the courts. You canāt argue, as Nancy Pelosi did, that the president is an urgent danger to national security and then wait for over a month before sending an incomplete work product to the Senate. Her actions were transparently political and not at all in line with the grave nature of our impeachment process.
After 13 witnesses, over 28,000 pages of evidence, and nine days of presentations, the Senate did its constitutional duty to try this impeachment. The Democrats simply failed to convince the Senateāor the American peopleāthat the president should be removed from office. It is only fair that the American people decide who their president should be. Itās time for the Senate to resume its focus on issues that matter to real people, like the cost of prescription drugs, access to affordable health care, and taking care of our veterans.
As the 116th Congress addresses the many challenges facing our nation, I hope you will continue to share your thoughts and concerns. To keep up with my work in Congress, you can follow me on Twitter and Facebook, or visit my website at mcsally.senate.gov where you can sign up to receive my e-newsletter. Again, thank you for sharing your concerns. Please continue contacting my office regarding issues that you feel are important to you and Arizona.
Sincerely,
Martha McSally
U.S. Senator

She calls removing trump ādeeply disruptiveā OK, then what Lee Harvy Oswald did in 1963 should have wiped out out government but it did not. LBJ was sworn in that same day that Kennedy died. Actually within an hour. Itās why we have a vice president. Not that Mike Pence is a great option.
Anyway I would appreciate feed back.

I am sitting here amazed. I wonder what a president, any president would have to do that is so beyond the pale as to merit removal for Martha.

Now that Trump has dispatched Vindman, he will go after the entire state of CA.

It would be interesting to see a listing of the many cabinet level officials who have left the Trump administration, and the reasons. The list is probably quite long and the reasons probably fit into a narrow set of categories, e.g., reigned, fired, hired by outside firm (before they could be fired). The list of people who have remained in the administration (Conway, etc.) is probably very short, and likely shorter than for most administrations. Just wondering . . .
