President Donald Trump is continuing to remove individuals from his administration who no longer serve his mission or hold opposing viewpoints, as he prioritizes loyalty to his cause.
According to The Hill, the president authorized the firing of National Portrait Gallery director Kim Sajet.
Trump noted that Sajet is “highly partisan” and a “supporter” of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI).
It’s the latest effort by the Trump administration to weed out the Marxism-rooted DEI agenda that took over the U.S. government under former President Joe Biden.
Financial and election records backed Trump’s claim of Sajet’s partisanship, with documents showing her donations to a long list of high-profile Democrats, including former Vice President Kamala Harris.
Trump released a statement on Sajet’s firing, noting that “many” people — presumably advisers and staffers — requested that he terminate her employment due to her obvious liberal ideology.
“Upon the request and recommendation of many people, I am hereby terminating the employment of Kim Sajet as Director of the National Portrait Gallery,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
He added, “She is a highly partisan person and a strong supporter of DEI, which is totally inappropriate for her position.
“Her replacement will be named shortly.”

The Hill noted:
“The Federal Elections Commission reported that she financially supported Democratic nominees, including former President Biden, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), former Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison (D-S.C.), and others through ActBlue.”
Sajet’s firing was the latest in the Trump administration’s mission to quash any remaining DEI elements in government.
It follows the firing of the Librarian of Congress, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the U.S. Coast Guard Commandant for similar reasons, the Hill noted.
Users across social media applauded the president for making the call to get rid of Sajet.
“They are probably in a courtroom right now getting a judge to say he can’t do this, it violates her rights to free speech or something like that…” one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote:
“Congratulations on cleaning up the trash.”
Sajet may be the latest to get her walking papers, but she probably won’t be the last.
