was summarily fired three weeks ago, as reported on Nicolle Wallace's show this afternoon. She was well respected and well known in the FBI community, especially for her work in antiterrorism. The retired FBI agent who was discussing this indicated she was part of the purge of FBI leadership by Trump, and her recent removal would probably be felt in this particular effort to track and bring to justice the shooter.

Huh. So it goes. Incompetence of Trumpists comes home to roost?
