He is not the president yet.

2. IN CON WE TRUST.

The new motto on the tRump Three Dollar Bill.

[Fiendish Thingy]

3. He hasn't fired anybody yet.

Clickbait nonsense.

4. Here's a link

President-elect Donald Trump is picking Andrew Ferguson as Federal Trade Commission (FTC) chair, replacing Lina Khan. He is also selecting antitrust lawyer Mark Meador as a commissioner for the agency. “At the FTC, we will end Big Tech’s vendetta against competition and free speech,” said Ferguson in a statement on X. “We will make sure that America is the world’s technological leader and the best place for innovators to bring new ideas to life.” Ferguson will not need Senate confirmation to be named as chair. He likely represents a more corporate-friendly head of the agency.

you can apologize when ready !

5. She'll be in office until tsf is sworn in. That isn't "firing".

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for an apology.

[Mr. Sparkle]

7. Her office has been put in lame duck mode until January

shes gone. And all the good work shes done will be stopped. Shes been fired for all intents and purposes.

[Fiendish Thingy]

6. She's not fired, and he's not president yet.

This story was reported as if Trump currently has the power to fire government officials- he does not.
That he has nominated someone to replace Khan is not a surprise, it was expected.

(In fact, there were rumours that Harris wouldn’t have kept Khan at FTC had she been elected- many of her big donors, such as Mark Cuban, demanded Khan be replaced, and it was something Harris never denied)

[Mr. Sparkle]

8. Thats semantics horseshit

and there were no rumors she would be going under Harris, Cuban wanted to get rid of her and there was a big backlash against his outburst.

[Fiendish Thingy]

9. Words are the clearest way to communicate facts

Words can also be used to spread lies and propaganda.

If you feel encumbered by “semantics” in perpetrating the myth of Trump’s omnipotence, that’s not my problem.

10. Are you expecting a different outcome? Lol

Zero % chance it doesn't turn out the way the OP is suggesting.

[niyad]

11. Ms. Khan is neither "fired", nor is she deceased ("who WAS she").

Nor is TRAITOR** the sitting president. This is NOT "semantics horseshit", it is called accurate reporting. We have an expectation of correct information, and presentation, on our side, without reference to the propaganda and illiterate BS from the reichwing.

12. Yeah

In fact, there were rumours that Harris wouldn’t have kept Khan at FTC had she been elected- many of her big donors, such as Mark Cuban, demanded Khan be replaced, and it was something Harris never denied

Yeah I did not like that. Lina Khan was one of my favorite officials in the Biden administration and pretty beloved by progressives. Mark Cuban was a sleazy shill who went from supporting the awful Nikki Haley to piling on to the Harris campaign.

I so agreed with this:
