Within an HOUR after being legally appointed by the federal judges as Western WA's top prosecutor, Trump fired Roger Rogoff.

It’s a disgrace.

The eastern part of the state had theirs quit after the feds went after the Spokane 3 protestors with fraudulent charges and he installed a puppet there too. What is the state government doing about this? Drafting a post about how concerned they are? @governorferguson.bsky.social @atg.wa.gov
