CNBC: Biden fires Social Security boss, a Trump appointee who refused to resign

The Washington Post reports, “Saul said in an interview Friday afternoon that he would not leave his post, challenging the legality of the White House move to oust him.

The White House said a recent Supreme Court ruling gives the president power to replace him.”
