Trump Fires Acting US Attorney General

[Anthony]

President Donald Trump fired the acting U.S. Attorney General Sally Yates after she publicly questioned the constitutionality of his refugee and immigration ban and refused to defend it in court.

She had to go...She committed a serious mistake when she told Justice Department lawyers not to defend President Donald Trump's executive order.

Perfect. One less asshole in Washington. Who's next?

She was flat out insubordinate...said she found it immoral. She deserved to be fired.

She failed to perform the duties that she pledged when she took the position. Trump had no choice but to fire her.
