        Trump fires FBI Dir, Deputy AG, District AG's. Looks like a Putin style Kremlin purge.

        They're afraid if they speak against Trump they'll be fired too. They need to keep him to get their tax cuts & gut our social safety net.

        That's true but he can arrange & fund a primary opponent. I was referring to FBI, Dept of Justice, or other gov employees not in Congress.

        Sally Yates for independent prosecutor! I don’t say this lightly. Her topicality gives her a credibility that Republicans would accept.

        Sally Yates is an Obama hack and couldn't possibly be impartial. I don't say this lightly.

        I don't think anyone is "independent" anymore. This firing should scare the fuck out of everyone. This is a power grab plain and simple.pic.twitter.com/zm71swYiVY

        GOP sold their souls to the devil. The Bill will come due when the shit hits the fucking fan. Their hands are tainted.
