Yep.
And why is the President firing the "Librarian of Congress." Shouldn't Congress do that?
Technically there is no defined process for removal of this position.
That means the president technically has the authority to do it. This would be different for GAO and CRS.
Does it really mean that?
DP. Apparently, yes. Still, not a good look--more reflexive lashing out at anyone in authority who is a minority and/or female. In this case, he got two for the price of one.
The President of the United States has the authority to remove the Librarian of Congress. This position is appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate for a 10-year term, as stipulated by 2 U.S. Code § 136–1. However, the statute does not specify any procedures or restrictions regarding the removal of the Librarian, implying that the President holds the discretion to dismiss the incumbent.
