He’ll probably fire all women and POC who don’t think in goosestep with him.

lindablowney.bsky.social•117 days ago

She is a woman. That is the bottom line.

giamonroe.bsky.social•117 days ago

I wonder if she can sue him?

debryberg.bsky.social•116 days ago

He is totally immune for anything he does, totally frightening.

giamonroe.bsky.social•116 days ago

She also has rights under the law.

libbyhux.bsky.social•116 days ago

I was wondering that too? He can’t fire for the reasons above (or can he?) but who knows what was presented to her as reasons.

giamonroe.bsky.social•116 days ago

What reasons could he have given in one day without a review or investigation?

tpl17.bsky.social•116 days ago

Isn't this the point where she needs a lawyer to insist on a review or challenge a firing without cause?

giamonroe.bsky.social•116 days ago

I would hope so.

tpl17.bsky.social•116 days ago

me too 💙

adornmentinmetal.bsky.social•116 days ago

I'm not to sure it would help. He would make sure of it. There's no rule of law anymore...just tRump law.

birdsinmyattic.bsky.social•117 days ago

Wouldn't want the women in the Coast Guard to be safe from RAPE .

grateful-1.bsky.social•116 days ago

Thank you for this post, Mia!... Among Trump's YUGE list of negative traits is that he's a Misogynist!... Trump does NOT address problems!... Trump CREATES problems!

The people who thought they were voting for “lower grocery prices,” actually voted for this.

trump only understands, besides killing, raping and pillaging for military duty.

jarda.bsky.social•117 days ago

Everything which reminds Dear Leader of his own legal problems must go. Next step: Decriminalise rape.

In short, she is a woman. Trump is threatened by women who aren't your cookie cutter MarALago bimbo's.

willfight.bsky.social•116 days ago

Face it, he removed her because she's a woman, plain and simple. Hesgeth may not get appointed, but Dt is still following his plan: No women in combat positions, even potential combat positions. I hope women mass migrate, further increasing the recruitment shortage. You go girls💪

oldgamernerd.bsky.social•117 days ago

Again, zero surprises there.

Oh Trump is very PRO sexual assault!!! That's why he's a felon.

bornobella.bsky.social•116 days ago

Hope she sues him for unfair dismissal

cmarpa.bsky.social•116 days ago

Someone is telling him what to do. He is too lazy abd stupid to have researched all these firings.

knox377.bsky.social•116 days ago

This is just a glimpse of the harm this pathetic man will impose upon our country, civil servants, women

adornmentinmetal.bsky.social•116 days ago

You bet it's just a glimpse. He's emboldened now, he's pissed and beyond vindictive, and he's going to burn this country to the ground.

alifleur.bsky.social•113 days ago

Makes me sick. She was in the Coast Guard serving her country since I was 5! She wasn't given ribbons because she's a woman, she worked for them. She devoted her whole damn life & was chosen to lead because she earned it! Not becuz 'boobs' . Women who voted for DJT- this is what he thinks of you.

trueblue666.bsky.social•116 days ago

How sad for our military!

mlroy.bsky.social•116 days ago

Such an insult to her and the military, and extremely short-sighted. Don't think that's going to help with Coast Guard / military recruitment or retention of women. https://www.mycg.uscg.mil/News/Article/2661558/womens-retention-rates-increasing/#:~:text=The%20Coast%20Guard%20has%20seen,CGMA%20reimbursement%20for%20shipping%20breastmilk

Ugggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I hate this I bet she is awesome.

Trump hates strong intelligent women

tatoomom.bsky.social•116 days ago

Trump just hate women period

deward.bsky.social•116 days ago

She can stand proud.

gr8hitr.bsky.social•117 days ago

Why do what's right after spending a lifetime of doing what's wrong?

resjudicata22.bsky.social•116 days ago

Title VII's anti-retaliation provisions specify that it is illegal for employers to fire employees for opposing, reporting, or participating in an investigation relating to sexual harassment on the job.

pghdlo.bsky.social•117 days ago

Of course he did. He is a vile man who will undo so much progress that was hard to achieve in the first place. I can’t believe this country wanted this.🥺

shorroldcurvers.bsky.social•117 days ago

Trump is such a small man.

cgonzales78.bsky.social•117 days ago

This is just the beginning of many. He just mad because she is stronger than him because she actually served her country.

To be honest all women are stronger than Donald 💪🏽

nancymerklein.bsky.social•117 days ago

Only white, Christian, males in MAGA hats need apply….for anything!

rls69.bsky.social•117 days ago

Trump will do to the military what he has already done to the GOP - replace the leaders with incompetent bootlickers.

dbach55.bsky.social•117 days ago

They are too ignorant to realize that she could manage border issues and equity issues at the same time. They can only focus on one, HATE.

justalassie.bsky.social•116 days ago

Of course he did. Women will not be safe in high positions while he's in office. He's a misogynist, whoremonger AH

jacg1.bsky.social•116 days ago

He’ll replace her with George Santos because he once saw a real Coastguard on TV

theluckyladybug.bsky.social•116 days ago

So basically his dream is for all women to be r*ped and pillaged. May he burn.

lance808.bsky.social•116 days ago

But it’s ok to have an abusive , treasonous , insurrectionist felon in the White House ?

blugolds34.bsky.social•116 days ago

MAGAs and all Republicans are just a bunch of stupid, ignorant, petty, un-American, bad people.

no1nh.bsky.social•117 days ago

Of course, he did. THE ORANGE REICH!

nagsheader.bsky.social•117 days ago

My late father, a Coast Guard, had the pleasure of being seated next to her and could not have been prouder to see a woman rise to such a rank as Admiral. I'm glad he isn't here to witness such an abomination.

Wasn’t biden a draft dodger? #Hypocrite

She also left the border completely open. We were flooded with illegal immigrants, drugs, and her stance on DEI destroyed recruiting efforts.

Maybe pay attention?

cahendry.bsky.social•117 days ago

Trump likely said, “She doesn’t have the blonde bimbo look that I like in women.”

thinkitthrough.bsky.social•116 days ago

Convict Trump is not worthy to lick the sea salt off the boots of Admiral Linda Fagan!

7866richard.bsky.social•117 days ago

the purge has started so glad biden pardoned so many that would have felt the petty vindictiveness of his anger i hope this admiral will find a safe berth

fallingoffthefence.bsky.social•117 days ago

And yet the victims were still harmed and will get their money. All of this is performative

rocinante1.bsky.social•117 days ago

He resented that, but moreover, resents ANY woman serving in command positions in any of the Armed Forces. Has to be a group of old white guys in the Situation Room, in Tr***'s warped, delusional mind. Ugh.

beasur.bsky.social•117 days ago

Keep the women in check.

rainsend.bsky.social•117 days ago

Trump resents that she's a woman. Women don't belong in the military according to him. What a slimy little fungus he is.

skilduff.bsky.social•116 days ago

I am personally offended. My daughter graduated from the Academy ‘06. She went there b/c it was the most woman friendly of all the academies. Today the Coast Guard goes back 50 years. I’m pretty upset. Mother of four independent women. The new Nazi regime has taken over. God help us. 💙

skilduff.bsky.social•116 days ago

Linda Fagan tried to address sexism in the Coast Guard.

But now the new Nazi regime is in control.

What a slap in the face to all women.

I cry a river of tears for Linda Fagan. She is another Blue Sky Hero! She did nothing but protect.
