Atlanta's former mayor announced she resigned from her position on President Biden's Export Council on Jan. 4, one day before President Trump claimed she was fired as part of his removal of over 1,000 Biden-era appointees.

On his first day in the White House for his second term, President Donald Trump announced he’d be removing more than 1,000 appointees from their positions, all hired under the administration of former Pres.

Formerly Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms was among the first names Trump announced as being terminated from their posts. Bottoms was appointed by President Biden to serve on the President’s Export Council, a national advisory committee on international trade.

President Donald Trump declared that he was firing Joe Biden appointee and former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, and she quickly reminded him that she had resigned from her post weeks ago.

With his infamous “You’re Fired!” phrase, Trump terminated Lance Bottoms via social media, but the former mayor reminded him she had already resigned.

President Donald Trump is spending his first full day back in the White House meeting with congressional leaders, making an infrastructure announcement and demonstrating one of his favored expressions of power: firing people.
