If you are a smart, hardworking, honorable person, you have no place in this White House. The purge continues apace.

I suppose he knew it was coming but what a hard hard thing for this man, a hero, to have to go through. I'm so very sorry about this. And angry. I'm angry.

He remains low 40s or less. That is why they have to cheat and steal the elections.

at least he'll get unemployment. Plus, he stands by what he did, he is an American Hero.

Also, he is qualified and finding another job will come easy.

Unlike those unqualified assholes sinking up the WH.

I read that he was still working on grounds of WH but not close to President as before. But as active duty military he could either be reassigned or retire as he has 20+ years active duty.
