BREAKING NEWS: Trump fires Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Daniel Ragsdale

Great start.

Here's to hoping he also gets all the Muslim Brotherhood rats that were infesting the government cheese under Obama.

I have respected you for years ... but your follow-up in-thread should be deleted and an apology is paramount.

ETA: I almost am left wondering if you've imbibed on the Snarl Scale this evening. I may not get past the disappointment you've dropped in my lap tonight.

1) Why should my comment be deleted?

2) What in the world is a "Snarl Scale?"

You know the sewer rats they like to hide where the dirt is.

People have forgotten all the CAIR members that Obama chose to surround himself with ties to the Muslim brotherhood.

Mark Berman with WaPo is tweeting that Ragsdale will remain Deputy Director after serving as acting director. twitter.com...


This is not a firing, but replacing the acting director Ragsdale with Homan and making Ragsdale deputy director.

He will want to know who else is betraying us, and he will act.

Betraying us? He fired an AG that was doing here job, she was not his personal attorney.

He has the right to replace people appointed by another administration, but if it because he is having a fit, it is another matter.

Her job is to uphold the law.
The president's order was lawful.
Yates was disrupting and refusing to follow the rule of law and deserved to be fired.

a reply to: reldra

No she was not doing her job and her responsibility is to represent the US government. The AG is required by law to carry out executive orders.
