The White House has found a novel way to ensure Donald Trump’s nominees ascend to power.
Federal judges in the Western District of Washington swore in former King County Superior Court Judge Roger Rogoff as U.S. attorney Wednesday morning. Within 54 minutes, Trump fired him.
The district’s 17 federal judges have been trying to find a replacement for Seattle’s First Assistant U.S. Attorney Neil Floyd, after Trump failed to formally nominate him. Floyd was appointed in October, though his name was never officially advanced to the Senate for consideration.
Federal law grants a district’s judges the power to appoint a U.S. attorney if the president and the acting attorney general fail to do so within 120 days, subsequently stonewalling the procedural Senate hearings.

You got any money for those of us that can’t afford it and are trapped in one of the most capitialist hellholes?
What happens when fascism knocks in the new country? Fascism is rising globally.
Rising? No, planned
Yeah I’m pretty sure it’s a coordinated plan to shore up power and resources before the inevitable climate collapse. Amoc is shutting down, we’ll likely have a blue ocean event in the next decade, and we were already in one of the most significant extinction events in planetary history. It’s gonna get real real bad.
Done that, but it hasn’t fixed anything. Also, the UK is noticeably worse since I got here… I can’t get anything right!
I moved back in 2015 and, while many things about my personal situation are better (though not all), that doesn’t solve the actual problem. Things happening in the US still impact the rest of the world no matter what.
Yeah, no. I left a long time ago as the writing was on the wall well before Trump. The political right has been working to dumb down America beyind belief since at least the 1970’s.
