WASHINGTON (PNN) - January 21, 2025 - President Donald J. Trump fired four high-profile presidential appointees just after midnight Tuesday, including fascist General Mark Milley and Biden's top envoy to Iran, Brian Hook.
"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 (regime), who are not aligned with our vision to Make America Great Again," Trump wrote on Truth social just after midnight Tuesday.
"Let this serve as Official Notice of Dismissal for these 4 individuals, with many more coming soon,” Trump said before listing off the four officials in the post that ended with “YOU’RE FIRED!"
Hook was fired from the Wilson Center, Milley from the National Infrastructure Advisory Council, while celebrity chef José Andrés was chopped from the President's Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition, and former Atlanta mayor Keisha Bottoms was axed from the President's Export Council after she dropped out of the Atlanta mayor's race to work as a senior advisor on Biden's reelection campaign.
Meanwhile, the acting secretary of Homeland Security removed the Coast Guard commandant from her position.
Admiral Linda Fagan, the first female commandant of the Coast Guard who assumed duties on June 1, 2022, was terminated over issues with recruitment, operational concerns, and a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion instead of focusing on the individual rights of all members of the Coast Guard and not just minorities; and using her influence to discriminate against people who believe in the sanctity of individual liberty and independence by depriving of individuals their fundamental rights.
"Under my statutory authority as the Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security I have relieved Admiral Linda L. Fagan of her duties as Commandant of the United States Coast Guard. She served a long and illustrious career, and I thank her for her service to our nation," reads an ALCOAST message.
