I Prayed have prayed
Father, we thank You for giving President Trump the power to fire any and all political appointees. We pray he would use this power wisely to remove corruption and immorality from our federal government.

When the Biden administration tried to fire him, Sean Spicer forced a court to claim that presidents have the authority to fire any and all political appointees, establishing a new legal precedent. Now, that same legal precedent can be used against Biden administration holdouts once President Trump returns to office.

From Washington Examiner. President-elect Donald Trump is arriving at the White House armed with a legal weapon that will let him fire any of President Joe Biden’s appointees.

Thanks in part to a court fight former Trump White House spokesman Sean Spicer lost over his firing by Biden from a three-year term to the Board of Visitors to the United States Naval Academy, the incoming president will have the legal backing to dump any of Biden’s over 4,000 appointments who try to stick around. …

The case dates to Sept. 8, 2021, when Biden began to fire Trump allies  …

Spicer and others … were unceremoniously dumped despite several of them having time left on their three-year terms.

Spicer … sued, saying that unlike White House staff or others appointed by a prior president, they couldn’t be fired because of their congressionally mandated terms.

They lost, however, when a judge essentially ruled that the president could fire any presidential appointee

Spicer said that is exactly what he hoped the courts would do because he wanted to help a future Trump presidency fire Biden’s picks without having its hands tied. …
