But to whatever extent (if any) that senatorial "Advice and Consent" ought still to apply to new executive-branch appointments, I can see no reason at all why it should also apply to executive-branch expulsions - especially when the "expulsee" is a holdover from a previous administration. At the very least, the Chief Executive should be permitted (or even expected) to fire any such executive-branch holdovers - at will, and for any reason.
What possible purpose is served by forcing a present administration to retain executive bureau appointees from previous administrations? Whose interests are served by such a scheme? It certainly isn't "the people" (or "the several states", even if that was still a going concern any more - which it isn't)? So who, then?
