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.

Sure man, it's me, a non-American concerned about where America is headed, who is the controlled opposition, and not the one trying to make enemies of people who aren't on the side of your actual enemy. You don't sound like a person actually serious about fighting the enemy now. Sounds like your main objective is to sow discord amongst the people who are against trump.

    Yeah, me telling you about the media embargo on protests which is specifically designed to make Americans doubt the effectiveness and number of protests is sowing discord.

    Not the tool that has weaponized incompetence in the face of that propoganda. Sounds right to me tool 😀. Must be my TDS?

    Asking you for sources that aren't part of that embargo given that not all American media is corporate owned is sowing discord now? I think what you're doing by claiming there are protests everywhere but not having any source to produce is trying to make Americans think the situation is not as bad as it might be so that they get complacent and not fight back. You literally sound like you're part of a psyop. The fact that you can't stop insulting me just makes me think you're very desparate to distract people from finding out.

    I just think you're kinda dumb. The American situation is terrible, which is why Americans are protesting, which is having an effect at every level it happens, which is why discussing it in American media is embargoed. It'll keep escalating regardless until it's impossible to ignore, but at that point people will be burning things down. That'll be around election time when voting is predictably compromised by the fascist regime.

    We're just arguing past eachother because you are a tool.

    You people have plenty of independent media that aren't corporate owned and part of the embargo. What is it that is so hard for you to understand that if none of the protests you mentioned is enough to gain the attention of your independent media, that means the movement is hopelessly small and require some ass kicking to get into gear instead of the coddling you're trying to do now? I think YOU'RE very dumb because you don't seem to realise that when it's too late, there is no turning back until some actual bloody revolution is performed, and that requires even more sacrifice than what you're unwilling to do even now.

    Not really, because I haven't relied on insulting you constantly to make my point, yet.
