Who will be first high-level appointee to be fired or to resign?

There was record turnover in the first Trump administration but almost none this time around. I've said I thought that Hegseth, RFK, and Patel would be the three most likely to go first, in that order. This article says it might be Patel, and he certainly should go. He's been using FBI resources (taxpayer's money) as if it he owns them himself:

Trump is weighing replacing FBI Director Kash Patel, according to sources

For the purposes of this thread, I'm only talking about high-level Senate confirmed political appointees.

Does Musk not count?  We were told he was basically running the country not too long ago.

Get on X.  The White House already said the reports were nonsense yesterday.

I'm thinking of political appointees only. Musk was a "special employee" and not a good one. 😉

And you take everything the White House says as gospel? They deny many things that are in fact true. Regardless, the improper uses of FBI resources (plane, FBI swat team as security for his girlfriend, etc.) are true.

Who do you think will be the first? There will be one. Which one do you think might be on the chopping block?

@aloha-hoosier I have no clue.  I'd guess Howard Lutnick if the economy rolls over.

Good guess. If Patel doesn't go, my money will be on Hegseth. The man is a self-promoting pretender and is not respected by senior leaders in the military and the DoD IG will soon be reporting (though we may not see it) that he did in fact improperly put highly classified information into the infamous Signal meeting. It's not a secret (pun intended) that it was highly classified.

Nothing will improve until Wiles, Blondi, and Kash are gone.

Despite your rabid defense of Bondi and Patel when nominated, you've turned on them? What was the reason for you turning on them? Or should I ask which Twitter Twit turned on them and why?

Wiles? You mean WH Chief of Staff? What did she do or what were you told that she did?

That dude is a mess right now.  He needs to leave that job for his own health and well being.

He is and he shouldn't be in that office either, but he's not a Senate-confirmed appointee which is what I'm talking about.
