Our president is an insufferable c**t.

We really were lucky to have her, Hayden has been so great. This is a loss and something that didn’t have to be done, her term is up next year

This is so sad and disgusting. We are all just letting this happen.

I just KNEW she was a woman of color before her bio even opened on my desktop.

This is so petty. Her term was literally up next year anyways so he'd get his own replacement with far less controversy if he just waited for the term to expire, but he's nothing if not petty.

I think she technically still is the librarian of Congress. The one that would release her early is Congress. Not the president.

I'd guess Trump's technical end run is to keep her pay going. Way to cut waste.

If it's illegal, maybe there should be pushback?

Gotta entertain the rubes.

What purpose will this serve and how does it help the people? Why isn’t Laura Bush speaking out on this????

Amen.

Can he actually do that? I thought the Library of Congress was under the wing of Congress, not the Executive Branch.

It's a presidentially appointed position, confirmed by the Senate, though it's supposed to be a 10-year-term

Raise hell, y'all. Sue him Carla Hayden!
