Not in this case. These are political appointees who serve at the pleasure of the President....he does not need a reason to can one or all of them...

Err..., then he should just point that out, rather than claiming the WH had nothing to do with it, and it was the Justice department doing it for other reasons.

I agree, in this case a reason is not required; However if one is/was advanced it must be supported, otherwise there is grounds for wrongful termination. IMO... I'm probably wrong or a case would already have been filed. One ought to be IMO, and it ought to be easy to win. We ought not be able to go about alleging things that aren't true about our honored representatives ... ought we not? or is that too knotty/naughty?
