Good. These people perform their duties at the pleasure of the President and if he isn't pleased with them, he should can them.

WH said Trump fired Tillerson on Friday.

Goldstein says Tillerson hasn't talked to Trump and found out he was fired when Trump tweeted it this morning.

You would think that pretty soon these political cockroaches would figure out that things are no longer status que at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

I love that the left is reduced to criticizing trump for firing the Under Secretary of State. EVERYTHING is a big deal to the left. It makes actual concerning issues seem like just another melt from the left. The left has lost its collective mind.

Except, if the white house has no documentation to back up their decision they just painted themselves into a terrible corner.

Doing this signifies their bases are covered and they have the documentation/corroboration to show that Tillerson was indeed notified on Friday
