"While U.S. attorneys are typically nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate, Berman was appointed to his job by the federal court in New York because the Trump administration had left the job without a Senate-confirmed appointee for so long. Some legal experts believe that, as a result, only the court can replace Berman until an nominee is confirmed."
WTF is right. Barr wants a US Attorney fired and Trump pretends it has nothing to do with him!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He's the ******* POTUS for christ sake. It all has to do with him. He's everybody's boss in the government so he ultimately is responsible for what his subordinates do.
“That’s his department, not my department,” the president said.
Wrong, asshole.
