[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some more tidbits from the article, bolded for emphasis:

[quote]The anticipated departure of [b]Siebert, who Trump nominated for his position in May[/b], has thrown one of the country's most prominent prosecutor's offices into disarray, with [b]the Trump administration so far unable to identify a viable successor[/b] to take over the sensitive position, sources familiar with the matter said.

[b]Maya Song[/b], the office's First Assistant United States Attorney, is the next person in the office's line of succession, but senior DOJ and administration [b]officials have discussed plans to dismiss her from her role[/b], sources said. Song, a career prosecutor who joined the office in 2013, has served as the office's No. 2 prosecutor since last October.  Song also previously served in former Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco's office during the Biden administration.[/quote]

[b]So they're going to fire someone nominated by Trump,[/b] don't have a replacement yet (even if they did, it would have to be someone who is MAGA and who will know they HAVE to find some wrongdoing on the part of James to keep the job), and they will not consider the next person in line as a successor. Her name is Maya Song--so I'm guessing they'll say she was originally a DEI hire.

Siebert resigned. He said he had enough of that shat show. [/quote]
