On Thursday, Federal Election Commission (FEC) Chair Ellen Weintraub revealed that she had received a letter from President Donald Trump, notifying her of her removal from her role. This move is part of the broader shake-up of the federal government by the Trump administration.
In a post on social media, Weintraub shared that she had been removed as a Commissioner and Chair of the FEC through a letter signed by the President on January 31. The letter stated her immediate removal from the commission.
