The initial email, on behalf of Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Benjamin Huffman which brutally axed Fagan from her role on January 21, stated: “Under my statutory authority as the Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, I have relieved Admiral Linda L. Fagan of her duties as Commandant of the United States Coast Guard.
Fagan is said to have left the premises cordially, despite an initial protest, “with many – maybe all – of her personal items and household goods still there” before sleeping at a friend’s house said a former U.S. military official.
DHS officials, while stating DEI, blamed Fagan’s failure to grapple with border security threats and an "ineffective deployment of Coast Guard assets" to manage drug smuggling along maritime borders.
The first woman to lead the U.S. Coast Guard was evicted from her home with only three hours' notice this week, a move that saw her forced to leave behind most of her personal items, a new report says.
The admiral was further ordered to leave the house unlocked to allow for the interior to be photographed, shared one source, something that Fagan reportedly pushed back on.
