"He was serving under the Vacancy Act," O'Brien said of Maguire."He was acting and his term, I believe, was ending March 11th or March 12th, like two weeks from now. So we're looking for a nominee that can be a terrific candidate, who can be nominated for this position. We needed someone who was Senate-confirmed who could serve in the meantime. And we turned to a great ambassador, Rick Grenell, our ambassador to Germany.
"We have a lot of respect for Joe Maguire," O'Brien later continued."So the premise of your question that he was pushed out just isn't true. Joe Maguire was always planning on leaving within the next couple of weeks. He did a great job. I had a really great relationship with him. And I have a tremendous amount of respect for him, as does the president."

‘From what I understand from second hand information? Rock solid for sure 💯🤣🤣
Bless his heart
Huh? I’ve seen the Russian bots & trolls firsthand supporting trump on social media, sometimes outrageously. And that’s just a tiny fraction of what’s out there. Sounds more like he wants to keep his job with trump but not protect our country’s elections.
Looks like O’Brien is celebrating St. Patty Day early.
I expect a Trump loyalist to support the Trump administration. That being said, he is lying.
did he refute it or just make a statement implying a refutation.
I don’t believe nothing out that TrumpToadie mouth
Well its a known fact that you immediately lose your job if you speak anything but positive about der fuhrer, so of course he's going to refute it. Problem is, now the media will focus on it hardcore and they'll keep pushing these bogus headlines
Who? Why would believe what he has to say about it especially after Trump told him to say it!
Just like Putin wants him to.
. It takes less than two hours for a Russian KGB agent to make a double out of anyone. Donald Trump was alone with Vladimir Putin for over two hours. We got it all wrong, Putin did not help Donald Trump win, Putin helped himself win. NancyPelosi
It has begun.
War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.
BS and it shows on trump face. He got dude by his balls.
Who did he ask? What are his sources?
realDonaldTrump The old russian race cow has been milked to death. TrySomethingElse Democrats

😂
