He was too busy partying to bother to learn who he'd fired.
@georgetakei He fired the people King Donald the Mad told him to. Or maybe it was an AI algorithm. At this point in 2026, does it really matter which?

@georgetakei

Why is he part of an administration that targets black and brown people and other minorities, while also being openly antisemitic and fascistic?

Doesn’t that go against the very thing they decry?

@georgetakei Inside US borders, the FBI is responsible for counterintelligence.

So if the FBI director is personally involved in firing people, he really ought to know what kind of expertise he's kicking out the door. And he really should have sense enough to refresh his memory on that before showing up to a hearing he knows will ask about the dismissals.

Unless, of course, he's an arrogant fraud.

@georgetakei No wonder he always looks so confused. 🫀

@georgetakei

Yeah, the fascist list of enemies guy is definitely not also the lying sack of shit guy

@georgetakei This entire administration can be summed up as a the 3-second clip of Jeremy Clarkson saying "How hard could it be?" And the rest of us are dealing with the fallout of how hard these jobs actually are

@georgetakei This admin is all used to corporate management where you abuse and undervalue everybody. Firings and layoffs are driven by politics and sometimes economics but pretty well never by merit.

Running the government like a business means exactly this kind of ruling by fiat and fear.

@georgetakei can someone pray say where this brand of total unacountability and shamelessness comes from? Because it is really superhuman and lucky me, I have NEVER encountered this in real life. Almost like I would miss obfuscation and bad faith!
@georgetakei citation needed please baby.
@georgetakei They weren't fired because they were experts on Iran; they were fired because they were experts on Trump's crimes.
@georgetakei Could he still be hungover from the Men's Olympic Hockey celebration... could he? I mean he looks young & experienced in drinking alcohol.
