Chump is trying to clear out anyone that is not devoted to him. He surrounds himself with "yes" men. He loves loyalty. All his nominees has a past, a confusing past. Some i really dont think the Senate needs to waste their time questioning them. If theyre like Trump theyll say what NEEDS to be said

If they can't be fired without cause, but are fired, who wears the repercussions? The person who signed off on the termination of their employment? I suppose if a few people carrying out illegal orders find themselves in legal trouble it might stop people doing so?

Yet dictator Don got rid of most of the protections for employees and made it so that anyone can fire anyone they want with no regards to anything and hire whomever they want without any regards or anything. Which is what led to our past hiring process of mostly to only inept white conservative men

My question now is what building is going to be the US Lubyanka - it needs a basement where purgees can be shot in the back of the neck and an attached crematorium. Nothing fancy.
Presuming the FBI is the new NKVD, it'd have to be attached to or adjacent to the current or planned FBI HQ.
