Sen. Hirono on Sessions Firing McCabe: ‘To Fire Somebody Only a Few Days Before His Retirement Is Just Sadistic’

EXCERPT:

HIRONO: "Two words: the chaos continues. I think this is just another example of impulsive behavior by the President and this time he’s using Jeff Sessions as his tool to get rid of somebody that doesn’t agree with him. Basically, the President likes to surround himself with people who will not disagree with him and so you see all these people exiting the executive branch at a time, for example, in the State Department where we need to strengthen the State Department and ability to conduct diplomacy. So he’s hollowing out the State Department. I could go on. You know, to fire somebody only a few days before his retirement is just sadistic in my view, really, and uncalled for."
