Just heard on CNN, she has been relieved of her position following her refusal to defend the Muslim ban.

Dana Boente (who?) is now acting AG

White House says she "betrayed the DOJ".

??? Defend the indefensible for a couple of more days until Sessions is confirmed and she is gone. Or make a statement and not defend that bullshit. She chose well.

 

[Durden77]

Hah....man.

 

[smokeymicpot]

That was faster then expected.

 

[PopeReal]

That was fast.

 

[everyday math]

True hero. Standing up for what's right in the face of evil.

 

[Weiss]

So are her actions for nothing then?

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Hate to say I called this. Told my mother about 2 hours ago she wouldn't have a job in less then 2 hours. Sure enough. I'm proud of her though. She stood up to him even though it cost her a job.

 

[chadskin]

WOW, that is unbelievably crazy.

 

[daffy]

Damn. This is endgame

 

[LegalEagleMike]

 

[malingenie]

So are her actions for nothing then?

No. She can live on knowing her true self.

 

[FZZ]

Can we take our country back now y'all?

 

[demosthenes]

When you google:

Dana James Boente is the newest sock puppet for the Trump administration Wikipedia

 

[everyday math]

So are her actions for nothing then?

Her actions were always more symbolic then anything. She stood up for what she believed was right. That's what mattered here. That there's still people with integrity in this world.

She was going to be relieved in a few days anyway.

 

[KHarvey16]

So are her actions for nothing then?

Of course not. They mean a lot.

 

[WedgeX]

Is this going to be a Monday Night Massacre?

 

[Snaku]

It's happening, isn't it. We're really going to become a fascist dictatorship.

 

[entremet]

It's like Game of Thrones but without the tits and dragons.

 

[Brinbe]

DICTATORSHIP

WAKE THE FUCK UP, AMERICA. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE

 

[Cesare Borgia]

Yea...Trump won't be president by 2020.

 

[Amory]

That was fuckin fast

 

[NYR]

So are her actions for nothing then?

It was always for nothing, the new AG is on the way in anyways.

 

[metalslimer]

Fucking disgusting

 

[thenight11]

JUST IN: White House appoints Dana Boente as acting attorney general, says Sally Yates "has betrayed the Department of Justice"

 

[Dany]

FUCKING RIDICULOUS

 

[faisal233]

So are her actions for nothing then?

??? Defend the indefensible for a couple of more days until Sessions is confirmed and she is gone. Or make a statement and not defend that bullshit. She chose well.

 

[Jeremy]

Holy shit

 

[Boke1879]

Yea...Trump won't be president by 2020.

Doing too much too fast huh?

 

[Strimei]

That didn't take long, jesus.

 

[richiek]

This fucking administration.

 

[SteveO409]

Trump doesn't fuck around wow

 

[Chmpocalypse]

So are her actions for nothing then?

Standing up for what's right is never for nothing. She reminded people to do so. It's worth something.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

 

[Orbis Tabula]

How many Attorneys General have been relieved of their position by the President?

Spoiler

I may just be asking for the chance to say 'Attorneys General'

 

[Sponge]

Fuck Trump

 

[Amory]

It's happening, isn't it. We're really going to become a fascist dictatorship.

There's still Congress... Just gotta hope they filibuster for 4 (maybe 8) years

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Disgusting. Let go for doing her job

 

[samoscratch]

Haha awesome

 

[ElRenoRaven]

It's happening, isn't it. We're really going to become a fascist dictatorship.

If the people don't rise up yes we are. It's happening even faster then I thought it would. Trump is moving at warp speed to turn us into one.

 

[Damaniel]

That was a given. Surprised it was so quick though.

 

[jellies_two]

Trump doubles down on his cubed position on things.

Isn't that a gambling strategy?
can he break the house or hit the bet limit.

 

[Socivol]

What the fuck at this press release. This is so petty and vindictive.

 

[Crocodile]

It's the fucking Week Two >_<

 

[Wanda/Wander]

What the fuck,

 

[Ponn]

Obviously she should of had a private civil exchange of opinions with Trump. That surely would have worked with this clearly reasonable man.

 

[Altazor]

??? Defend the indefensible for a couple of more days until Sessions is confirmed and she is gone. Or make a statement and not defend that bullshit. She chose well.

this press release is absolutely fucking disgusting.

 

[onadesertedisland]

That statement was written by Bannon, right?

 

[Mahonay]

Fuhrer Trump moving quickly.

 

[BlueTsunami]

So are her actions for nothing then?

She was gonna get sacked anyways. She went out with a nice left hook to the administration. And instead of taking it to the chin, and standing tall, they're crying about it.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Doing too much too fast huh?

No being a fuck face piece of shit.
