In a post on X, Weintraub attached the January 31 letter signed by Trump which said: «You are hereby removed as a Member of the Federal Election Commission, effective immediately.»
Since taking office last month, Trump, a Republican, has embarked on a massive government makeover, firing and sidelining hundreds of civil servants and top officials at agencies in his first steps toward downsizing the bureaucracy and installing more loyalists.
«There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it,» Weintraub, a Democrat, said in her post.
«I've been lucky to serve the American people & stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon,» she added.
