I agree with Rand. Why is this a story?

[2banana]

Clinton and obama fired them in mass.

[truthkeeper]

I’m sure Twitter is melting down over this infusion of sanity.

[FewsOrange]

So why doesn’t he fire him?

[DoodleDawg]

Nobody is denying that Trump can fire the U.S. attorney. But not telling the man that he resigned before you released a press release saying that he did is probably always going to lead to the situation they have now.

[BereanBrain]

I seem to remember in detail the first week in office Clinton fired THEM ALL and replaced them with people beholding to, or in actual fact, FOB (Friends of Bill)

[faithhopecharity]

the d*** pr*ck needs to be physically hauled out of the government office like Sewell Lee Avery was removed from his corporate office in 1944. see pictures on internet

and then, keep hauling him. straight to jail

[GBA]

And he did!

“Mr. Berman, you’re fired!”
President Donald J. Trump

[Trailerpark Badass]

Didn’t Clinton fire all the US attorneys upon taking office, or was that an urban legend?

[ImNotLying]

Of course he can fire them, he just can’t replace them with good people because Linda Graham won’t let him without going through Shummer to get permission.

United States v. Solomon, 216 F. Supp. 835, 843 (S.D.N.Y. 1963)

[T]he President may, at any time, remove the judicially appointed United States Attorney, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 504. The language of subsection (b), "[e]ach United States attorney shall be subject to removal by the President * * *," clearly authorizes the executive to remove any United States Attorney, regardless of the nature of his appointment.
