Former Coast Guard Leader Linda Fagan Forced to Vacate Home Following Abrupt Dismissal
In a surprising development, former Coast Guard Commandant Linda Fagan was reportedly given just three hours to vacate her residence after being removed from her position by the Trump administration. Fagan, who made history as the first woman to lead a U.S. military branch, was allegedly dismissed over concerns about her emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
Initially, Fagan had been granted a 60-day waiver to arrange for new housing. However, Homeland Security officials intervened, instructing acting Commandant Kevin Lunday to expedite her departure. A source close to the matter indicated that the order originated from the highest levels of the administration, with the president reportedly insisting, “She needs to be out of quarters.”
The Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Fagan had been terminated “with cause” two weeks prior to the eviction and was still residing in the admiral’s quarters at the time. While officials did not confirm the three-hour evacuation timeline, the swiftness of the action has drawn significant attention and raised questions about the circumstances surrounding her dismissal.
