Trump Fires Acting Attorney General
If I understand it right this is the first time an AG has been relieved for purely political reasons.  If the AG doesn't think it's likely they'll win a defense, that usually doesn't cause an issue.As an edit: it probably wouldn't have been reasonable for her to put up an intentionally weak case, but if the order isn't able to stand up in court, then what?The major worry for me is Trump's seeking to punish anyone who shows disloyalty.  If Trump thinks he can have something done, I worry he'll demand people below him do so, or replace them with someone properly spineless.
