Well someone is taking a stab at a push back on TOM. “The
recently fired head of the Office of Special Counsel, a federal agency
dedicated to protecting whistleblowers, sued President Donald Trump on Monday,
saying he was illegally ousted…Dellinger notes in his lawsuit, filed in
Washington federal court, that special counsels can be removed by the president
“only for inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office.” Dellinger
was confirmed last year by the Senate for a five-year term to lead the watchdog
agency. ‘The effort to remove me has no factual nor legal basis — none — which
means it is illegal,’ Dellinger said in an email. He’s seeking a court order
finding that his termination was illegal and reinstating him as the special
counsel.”
And part 2 of Operation Don’t Just Sit There Do Something…

This website was started by “Sadie Healy, who runs a small global health
consulting firm, Molloy Consultants, realized no one was documenting how bad
the freeze on U.S. foreign aid would be. USAID wouldn’t be cataloging the
impacts as President Donald Trump’s administration fired senior staff,
shuttered its headquarters and then told its employees
their jobs would end. The nonprofits and aid companies who worked with
USAID were fighting to survive. ‘We can document the destruction that this
executive order has caused,’ Healy said. ‘And we hope that lawyers and we hope
that members of Congress can use that for their case.’” Thank you for giving a
much needed kick in the pants to those elected to protect the country (and the world)
from such absurdity.
And on we go….
