Summary
Trump tried to fire Federal Election Commission (FEC) Chair Ellen Weintraub, but she is refusing to leave, arguing the move is legally invalid.
Weintraub, a Democrat and frequent Trump critic, has served since 2002 and can remain until a replacement is confirmed.
Six commissioners run the FEC, with no more than three from a single party allowed to serve at one time.
Democrats condemned the action, calling it an attack on the FEC, which is currently reviewing complaints against Trump.
The commission, often deadlocked, oversees federal election compliance.
Lol maybe all the people he’s trying to get rid of should do this, just say “no lol” and stay. Let’s see what happens then.
Yeah, that sort of thinking is how they do things to boot. You aren’t going to come out on top as long as you are trying to play ball with the guy that broke into your house
This is the type of gangster shit I like to see, versus the unpatriotic thugs that Musk’s mafia have roaming around.
What a perfect expression she has in that thumbnail.
