Удахгүй болох завсрын сонгуулийн өмнө АНУ-ын Ерөнхийлөгч Дональд Трампын багт халаа сэлгээ эрчимжиж, засаг захиргааны гол албан тушаалтнууд ажлаа хүлээлгэн өгч эхэллээ.
Цагаан ордны хэвлэлийн төлөөлөгч Каролин Ливитт энэ сарын эхээр албан тушаалаасаа огцорсон бол түүний араас Хууль тогтоох асуудал эрхэлсэн захирал Жеймс Брейд, Цагаан ордны хуулийн зөвлөх Дэйв Уоррингтон болон АНУ-ын Өршөөл үзүүлэх асуудал эрхэлсэн прокурор Эд Мартин нар ажлаасаа чөлөөлөгдөхөө мэдэгдээд байна. Засаг захиргааны дотоод эх сурвалжуудын мэдээлснээр, Ардчилсан намынхан Конгресст ялалт байгуулж, засаг захиргааны үйл ажиллагаанд мөрдлөг шалгалт явуулж болзошгүй нөхцөл байдал үүссэн нь албан тушаалтнуудыг ажлаа орхиход хүргэж байна.
Түүнчлэн Иран улстай үүсгэсэн зөрчилтэй харилцаа, цэргийн нөөцийн хомсдолтой холбоотой маргаан, мөн Бүгд найрамдах намын дотоод сунгааны өмнөх улс төрийн тодорхойгүй байдал нь албан хаагчдын дунд сэтгэл түгшээх шалтгаан болж байна. Огцорч буй албан тушаалтнууд хувийн хэвшилд ажиллах хэтийн төлөв болон улс төрийн эрсдэлийг тооцоолж, одоогийн албан тушаалаасаа яаралтай гарахыг илүүд үзэж байгаа аж.
Трампын засаг захиргаа өмнө нь Дотоодын аюулгүй байдлын сайд Кристи Ноэм, Ерөнхий прокурор Пэм Бонди болон Үндэсний тагнуулын газрын дарга Тулси Габбард нарыг ажлаас нь чөлөөлсөн юм. Одоогоор эдгээр сул орон тоог нөхөх шийдвэр хараахан гараагүй байгаа бөгөөд Ерөнхийлөгч Трамп засгийн газрын бодлогыг хэрэгжүүлэхэд чиглэсэн ажиллагаа үргэлжилнэ гэж мэдэгджээ.

President Donald Trump is bracing for further departures from his top team as the midterms approach, with one former insider saying staffers are considering their next moves because they “see the writing on the wall,” according to a report.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced her resignation earlier this month and Director of Legislative Affairs James Braid, White House Counsel Dave Warrington and U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin have since said they are likewise heading for the exit.
More are expected to follow, with West Wing staffers reportedly weighing their options in anticipation of Democrats seizing control of Congress and launching investigations into the administration’s conduct and in light of the unpopular war with Iran and the prospect of an upcoming Republican primary to choose the party’s next presidential nominee.
“I think people are seeing the writing on the wall and thinking Republicans probably aren’t going to have the House, might not have the Senate either, and things are going to be stalled,” an unnamed official from Trump’s first term told Politico.
“People are thinking, ‘What are my post-administration business prospects? Is it worth taking these hits every single day, being part of these battles, and how does that hurt my prospects when I go to the private sector?’”
Another person close to the administration told the outlet that many were expecting a frustrating second half to Trump’s term, with his legislative initiatives unlikely to pass and congressional subpoenas pouring in.
“If you want a decent job downtown, you need to bounce now, because there are still relationships to trade on in the majority,” they said. “It might be the last time clients get anything done.”
Responding, White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers told Politico: “President Trump has built the greatest political movement in history, staffing his administration with talented, dedicated patriots who work tirelessly to execute his agenda.
“This movement is bigger than any one staff member, and the president’s mission to make America greater than ever before will continue unabated.”
The Independent has reached out to the White House for further comment.
The president has so far relied on a tight circle of trusted associates this term, which saw comparatively little turnover in 2025 other than the ousting of his original national security adviser Mike Waltz over the “Signalgate” scandal.
However, the dismissal of homeland security secretary Kristi Noem in March was quickly followed by the departures of attorney general Pam Bondi and director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
Trump recently raged publicly at U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro, suggesting she might be next, and promised to “hunt down” the “leakers” who told reporters about an alleged confrontation between himself and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth at Camp David concerning the depletion of munitions stockpiles.
The administration has yet to announce successors to the quartet known to be leaving, with Leavitt considered the most difficult to replace as the public face of Trump’s agenda.
The president has praised his outgoing press secretary, known for her combative encounters with journalists, for bringing a stability to the role he had not been able to find during his first time.
“She’s become a star,” Trump said last year. “It’s that face. It’s that brain. It’s those lips, the way they move. They move like she’s a machine gun.”
Over the weekend, he claimed to have had numerous applications for the job because Leavitt had made it “glamorous.”
