Another Biden holdover in the Executive Branch caught up in President Trump’s firing spree filed a lawsuit to get his job back.
President Trump fired Hampton Dellinger, Special Counsel of the Office of Special (not to be confused with a special counsel hired as a federal prosecutor) on Friday.
“On behalf of President Donald J. Trump, I am writing to inform you that your position as Special Counsel of the US Office of Special Counsel is terminated, effective immediately. Thank you for your service,” Sergio Gor, Director of the White House Presidential Office wrote to Hampton Dellinger, according to Politico.
Politico reported:
A federal ethics enforcer swept up in a spree of firings President Donald Trump carried out Friday night is suing to get his job back.
The lawsuit from Special Counsel Hampton Dellinger is the latest case that will test the president’s power to fire officials across the executive branch despite federal laws that seek to protect those officials from politically motivated firings.
Dellinger was appointed by President Joe Biden to lead the Office of Special Counsel, which has no connection to the similarly titled special counsel offices that handle politically sensitive criminal cases at the Justice Department. The office enforces federal whistleblower laws and the Hatch Act — the main statute limiting political activity by federal employees. The office also fields complaints from veterans about discrimination upon their return from military service.
The lawsuit and Temporary Restraining Order request was assigned to corrupt Obama judge Amy Berman Jackson.

Activist Obama Judges are waging a war on Trump and his ability to exercise full power over the executive branch.
Corrupt Obama Judge Paul Englemayer on Saturday issued an ex parte TRO forbidding all of Trump appointees, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, from accessing Department of Treasury data.
The Supreme Court must act quickly to intervene, Mike Davis said.
The Supreme Court must step in quickly and decisively on the emergency docket, as activist judges are illegally sabotaging the Article II power of the President.
Otherwise, the judiciary will lose its legitimacy—then its funding.
