Trump "Accidentally" Fires Nuke Weapons Team?!!

You have got to be kidding me.

We are getting news that Donald Trump accidentally fired staff in charge of overseeing the safety of the United States’ nuclear arsenal. You read that correctly.

In his mad purge of the federal government, delicate genius Trump fired 300 staffers from the National Nuclear Safety Administration (NNSA) on Thursday whose job it is to make sure our nuclear weapons stockpile remains secure. Then on Friday, once they realized what they had done, the administration scrambled to hire back the people they had just fired.

Of course, an Energy Department spokesperson claimed that only 50 people had been let go, and those were mostly administrative positions.

Sure.
