Trump fires Secret Service director and three more top officials quit ......

Trump reportedly ordered acting White House chief of staff to fire 'Secret Service Director Randolph Alles',.. Alles insists he wasn't fired but knew about a coming transition two weeks ago.

'U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Lee Cissna'... is also leaving....So are DHS undersecretary for management 'Claire Grady' and general counsel 'John Mitnick'.

Trump adviser Stephen Miller, the 33-year-old former staffer to then-Sen. Jeff Sessions.... Alles, Cissna, Grady and Mitnick were on a list of officials Miller targeted for removal as 'too soft,' according to a White House official.

White House official said Monday that the Secret Service shift had been in the works for two weeks and was unrelated to the Mar-a-Lago incident.

Alles wrote in a message to his agency that '[n]o doubt you have seen media reports regarding my "firing." I assure you that this is not the case, and in fact was told weeks ago by the Administration that transitions in leadership should be expected across the Department of Homeland Security.'

the president is looking around to reshape his team so that he can have the people in place to carry out his agenda,' he said during a Fox News Channel interview. 'And quite frankly he has the right to do that.'

The Secret Service is best known for protecting the president and vice president and their families, and those who formerly served in office.

Out with almost ALL of the old, in with the new.

Hey I never see an article about Pence on here.

What an odd job VP is.

Not newsworthy much one day and possible leader of the free world the next.

Does anyone else get tired of this garbage?

The President of the United States has every authority to fire ANYONE he believes isn't doing the job

You see turnovers, resignations and firings in EVERY administration.

IDK the back story here but I do know the Secret Service has been shakey and suspect ever since the Clinton administration. I wonder how many of these upper echelon have been lurking around since the Clinton years, or for certain the Obama years. I would not trust them either, given how deep the rot has spread in Washington. Who has been watching the watchmen? Answer: nobody.

Gee, thanks for the great insight. A bit of a soft, rhetorical obvious observation, which is what apparently what got them booted.☺

Wise to remember.......A good chess player knows you don’t get points for taking opponents pieces; rather, you win by setting them up for the “checkmate”...... Beware ‘the timing’ of the counter-puncher.

Well we understand few of the news sites are going to report this accurately because their agenda is to discredit Trump on anything he does....as well as doesn't do they think he should.

This is only going to increase as the Demorat Candidates running for President are ‘farmed out’ across the country to hammer on Trump and his administration...and anyone who supports him in the news cycles. That's why they have so many candidates.....their purpose is to ‘cover the ground’ and get free press.

They'll be like locusts covering the states.

Trumps Chief of staff said there was going to be a shakeup at the DHS 3 months ago....now he’s following through. And likely a portion are hold overs.

I love this.....”A good chess player knows you don’t get points for taking opponents pieces; rather, you win by setting them up for the “checkmate”. Beware the timing of the counter-puncher”....

I read that on another thread. Of course the Propaganda Media will scarcely mention that if at all.

Trump has his own paid security staff, who no doubt are the best money can buy. Bet you could pry some stories out of them about the SS.
