White House fires federal prosecutor just five hours after his swearing in

President Donald Trump's White House fired a federal prosecutor on Wednesday just five hours after he was sworn in by a federal judge.

Donald T. Kinsella, 78, was appointed by a panel of judges to serve as an interim U.S. Attorney in the Northern District of New York, which happened the day after the term of Trump's current U.S. Attorney, John A. Sarcone III, expired. Kinsella, a Republican, was sworn in during a virtual ceremony by Chief Judge Brenda K. Sannes, The Times Union reported.
