The National Guard General from DC That Trump Is Firing Is Black

[MineralMan]

I'm guessing that Trump didn't like his looks or something. Anyway, Trump's first official act as President will be to fire a black general who will have been part of planning security for the Inauguration. Way to go, Donnie!

1. It is a curious thing. It would be nice to get a little more detail...

He said his orders came from the Pentagon but that he doesn’t know who made the decision. It is unclear whether he is part of a larger class of federal workers who have been asked to leave their jobs as a new president takes office.

2. Curioser still; The WaPo almost completely rewrote their story - my above link.

My excerpted portion no longer appears in the article...
