Trump administration fires three agency heads in a post election fit of anger

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The Trump administration has fired the heads of three federal agencies, in the wake of the 2020 US election.

The administration fired Lisa Gordon-Hagerty, administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), Bonnie Glick, deputy administrator of the US Agency for International Development, and Neil Chatterjee, chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

Ms Gordon-Hagerty, who was on Donald Trump’s shortlist to replace former national security adviser John Bolton in 2019, was forced to resign on Friday, according to the New York Post. She was the first woman to oversee the National Nuclear Security Administration.

Republican senator Jim Inhofe, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, issued a statement on Friday, in which he said that the energy secretary Dan Brouillette “effectively demanded” Ms Gordon-Hagerty’s resignation.

Mr Inhofe called Ms Gordon-Hagerty “an exemplary public servant and remarkable leader”.

He added that Mr Brouillette’s decision “during this time of uncertainty demonstrates he doesn’t know what he’s doing in national security matters and shows a complete lack of respect for the semi-autonomous nature of NNSA”.

10. Dirty bomb

Ms Gordon-Hagerty heads the agency responsible for storing nuclear fuel and waste byproducts. Makes me wonder if Trump had tried earlier to get the material for a dirty bomb and she stopped him. I hope others in positions of authority there are wondering the same thing.
