The White House has found a novel way to ensure Donald Trump’s nominees ascend to power.
Federal judges in the Western District of Washington swore in former King County Superior Court Judge Roger Rogoff as U.S. attorney Wednesday morning. Within 54 minutes, Trump fired him.
The district’s 17 federal judges have been trying to find a replacement for Seattle’s First Assistant U.S. Attorney Neil Floyd, after Trump failed to formally nominate him. Floyd was appointed in October, though his name was never officially advanced to the Senate for consideration.
Federal law grants a district’s judges the power to appoint a U.S. attorney if the president and the acting attorney general fail to do so within 120 days, subsequently stonewalling the procedural Senate hearings.
This is so weird, here in America where I get local news affiliates, Facebook posts, videos, there are thousands, maybe tens of thousands of active protests around the country.
Delaney hall has managed to break through the national news embargo multiple times. But part of this fascist takeover is to do their best to reduce the impact of these protests.
You are repeating back our propoganda to us, which is hilarious. Americans are doing nothing? Americans are being harmed every day by ice, dhs, the military and national guard, and local and state police every single day and yet they still protest.
Trust me, it's pretty fucking lit out here, but it's also a big place, and these things can seem very far away depending on who and where you are. Like a fucking British person, you tool.
Here's a fun exercise on how to spot propoganda. A fence is going to be put up around Lafayette park near the Whitehouse. You'll see it listed as a popular staging area for protests with no current pictures, maybe a picture of a few people waking around a tumbleweed, why do they need a fence then? Like take 5 minutes and pull your head out of your ass.
