So Is This U.S. Attorney Purge Unprecedented Or Not?
G.W. Bush - 2006, W.J. Clinton - 1993, etc.

unprecedented. egregious. inconceivable. preposterous.

Twin Lts. Colonel Vindmans involuntarily separated from their ahh jobs today. I was unaware that a copy existed. I wouldn't have expected both to have attained identical rank and prestigious duties in the White House either--What are the odds of twin meritocracy in a bureaucracy favored by nepotists?

Anyway, twitterverse vanguard of ignorant, most litigious nation on planet objects, suspects most foul play by commander-in-chief, because ... idk ... "abuse of power"? Civil servant immunity clause in the US Uniform Code of Military Justice? A Title VII infraction masquerading as a legit business need?

NEWS: Alex Vindman's twin brother Army Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, an ethics lawyer for the NSC, was also dismissed from his job today, sources tell me.

Hours later cold water appears to extinguish suspicions of retaliation, adverse career trajectories.

Where are the Vindman brothers heading? Lieutenant Colonel Yevgeny Vindman is going to Office of General Counsel at Army at the Pentagon. Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman is going to work at the Pentagon until he heads to war college on July 1.

No mentions of salary degradation or GoFundMe legal fee solicitations yet.

Twitterverse announces that Sondland is a canned tomato, too. The more interesting disclosure of Little Data analysis among replies is a self-promo by one, Adrienne Cobb, editor of Forensic News, "tracking turnover in the Trump administration: Year three".

Last Tuesday marked the start of the fourth year of Donald Trump's presidency. In these past 1,095 days, 489 top officials have left their positions in the Trump administration. That's an average of one person leaving the administration every 2.2 days. As we'll see later, this daily average is slightly skewed by the committees and boards that either quit en masse or were disbanded by the president in one fell swoop. [...] The Trump Gov Tracker contains departures across 53 departments and agencies.

< wipes tears > Rather elaborate statistical significance derived from press reporting alone; evidently no pipe into OPM to "track" involuntary or voluntary GS 9-14 and SE ahh turnover in the period.
