He demoted the acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, fired an acting Attorney General, 47 U.S. Attorneys, and now the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. People are already saying it's Nixonian. The independence of the FBI and the Department of Justice has now been compromised. These same institutions are actively investigating connections between the Trump campaign and the Russian government. We need a special prosecutor or an independent commission. Also, CNN is reporting that a grand jury has issued subpoenas on records from the associates of former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. This is a bad day for America. What Trump did today looks ever so similar to when Russian President Boris Yeltsin fired Prosecutor General Yury Skuratov, who was investigating Yeltsin. One by one, objective voices in the U.S. government are being purged.
