Trump Fires Four Top Biden Appointees, Warns Over 1,000 More Face Dismissal
Jan 21, 2025, 01:28 PM
President Donald Trump announced early Tuesday in his first Truth Social post since his inauguration that he has fired four senior government officials appointed by his predecessor, declaring "You're fired!" and warning that over a thousand more face imminent dismissal. Trump's Presidential Personnel Office is actively identifying and removing Biden-era appointees who are "not aligned with our vision to Make America Great Again." The officials dismissed include retired General Mark Milley, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; celebrity chef José Andrés; former Iran envoy Brian Hook; and former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms. This move signals the beginning of a broader effort by the Trump administration to reshape the government according to its policy goals.
