Back on January 16th, four days before Trump was sworn in, the New York Post ran an op-ed titled, “Biden booted me off a nonpartisan board — precedent for Trump to clean house now.” Those following the careful planning underlying the Trump 2.0 revolution will enjoy this clip from Glenn Beck’s recent interview with former Trump 1.0 Press Secretary Sean Spicer. In the clip, Sean explains how in 2021, Trump-aligned legal groups roped the Biden Administration into a judicial decision greasing the Slip N Slide for Trump’s current Deep State purge.
In 2021, Spicer was (obviously) no longer serving as Press Secretary, but Trump had appointed him to two positions, including as a member of the Naval Academy Visitor’s Board. In September 2021, with only three months left in his Congressionally-defined term, Biden sent Spicer an email notifying him that he’d been fired. He thought, well, that’s that.
It turned out that Joe Biden made history by firing all Trump’s appointees to nonpartisan service academy boards before their statutory three-year terms ended. It was unprecedented. It had never happened before.
Then Spicer got a call from America First Legal. They asked him to join a lawsuit intended to force Biden to argue he has the absolute authority to fire anyone in the Executive Branch, including appointees to boards with statutory terms.
The District Court dismissed the case, interpreting the statute in a way that allowed Biden to fire Spicer despite this three-year term. They appealed. In the meantime, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled, in a parallel case (Severino v. Biden), that a presidential appointee in a similar position was removable at will by the President.
And it was done.
The law firm, America First Legal, is a conservative legal advocacy organization founded in April 2021 by former Trump administration officials. Until July of last year, America First Legal was a member of the advisory board for Project 2025, which is widely believed to provide the template for Trump’s plan to drain the Swamp.
In other words, drawing a few obvious inferences, Trump began working on this plan immediately after Biden took office in 2021.
While corporate media was busy calling Biden’s historic 2021 firings a routine housecleaning, President Trump’s legal teams were already laying a legal landscape for his second term. Spicer’s case wasn’t about getting his job back—it was about setting a legal precedent to let Trump clean house on day one of his second term.
Biden fired Spicer, AFL sued, and the far-left DC courts predictably ruled Biden could fire termed federal employees at will. Now Trump can fire them at will, too.
This wasn’t just a lawsuit; It was a strategic booby trap—forcing Biden’s own DOJ to argue on the record that the President has unlimited authority to remove Executive Branch appointees, even those with statutory terms. They fell right into the trap.
I suspect that, as things go on, we’ll find more examples of how Trump took the Democrats’ worst excesses during the painful Biden years and turned things around on them. They thought they were cleaning house. Instead, they were clearing the runway for Trump. That is why the Democrats are in disarray.
Boo-yeah, baby!
ut oh we are doomed! They have found Trumps Achilles heel! We are in the cross hairs

I went to one of these Interpretive dance preformances in St. Louis, made it almost 1/2 way through before leaving, Some Gomer grabbed a girl by the leg and dragged her on her ass across the stage. One guy just curled in a fetal position on the stage, all to awful music. The tickets were free and that was too much damn $$$$
Please bring back the drag shows just stop the torture!
If Trump hadn’t intervened, the Democrats would be having those sidewalk serenaders performing at the Kennedy Center, along with a kick-line of draggots.
Democrats didn’t learn that when they make rules just to accomplish their short-term goals, it CAN come back and bite them in the ass if/when Republicans regain majorities. Ask Harry Reid… oh, you can’t… he’s shoveling brimstone. You’d think they’d learn because suffering from their own stupidity pisses them off like nothing else.
Well, Democrats… enjoy some more of your arrogant stupidity.
Trumps rolling back and ending all of Bidens Global Warming/Climate Change stuff so Get A Life Eco-Freaks and GRETA GO HOME
