Pritzker: "President Trump ought to be calling that out. If he doesn't agree with Elon Musk, if he doesn't agree with two Sieg Heils at his own rally and backing a party that backs Nazis, then he ought to say so. Why isn't Donald Trump speaking out?

In 2022, Congress explicitly made these firings illegal, after Trump had fired several whom he considered disloyal after his first impeachment.
Tom Cotton defends Trump illegally firing IGs: "He has a right to get in there who he wants."

Again, in 2022, Congress passed a law that explicitly made these firings illegal. Are Republican senators unaware of that?
Lindsey Graham dismisses Trump illegally firing inspectors general: "He won the election. What do you expect him to do? Just leave everybody in place in Washington? This makes perfect sense to me."

What stood out to me is the last line about Columbia FORCING their criminals into the US. I don't recall hearing about any flights loaded with known criminals being sent to the US by any foreign government. On the other hand, Trump forced 1500 known criminals onto the streets of the US.
