Trump's retribution extends to Chef Jose Andres amid Los Angeles relief efforts
Briefly

On his first day in office, Donald Trump publicly stated he would be firing over 1,000 Biden appointees, targeting notable figures like chef Jose Andres, who has been actively providing support in the wake of California wildfires. Andres, who was appointed to the President's Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition, expressed that he had already submitted his resignation. Despite Trump's critical stance, Andres emphasized the importance of the council's mission in promoting health and fitness, showing his dedication to humanitarian efforts even amidst political turmoil.
One of those Biden White House appointees is Jose Andres, the revered Spanish-American chef who founded the nonprofit World Central Kitchen and who Biden appointed to the President's Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition.
Despite the humanitarian's efforts on behalf of people in this major American city, the new president appeared to hurl particular scorn at him, as well as three others.
Trump declared on Truth Social. He said the Biden appointees were being dismissed because they are not aligned with our vision to Make America Great Again.
Andres responded to the president's late-night post by saying he had already resigned from his position on the council.
