As of 2026-10-15, sources document multiple Trump administration members being fired or forced out, including Kimberly Guilfoyle ousted that week and several Cabinet-level officials removed earlier in 2026.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What we found
Supports. An Inquirer article published 2026-10-15 reports that Kimberly Guilfoyle, ambassador to Greece, was forced to resign 'this week' after a donor disclosure, and that four female Cabinet-level officials resigned or were fired in spring 2026.[3]
Supports. People (April 2026) lists Trump administration members who have left or been fired in the second term, including Pam Bondi, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, Kristi Noem and Tulsi Gabbard.[4]
Supports. A 2026-10-18 list of second-term departures describes Cabinet members, generals and ICE officials who have gone, and notes three Cabinet secretaries were replaced since the start of 2026.[5]
Context. Later reporting (after the 2026-10-15 check date) documents further firings, including press secretary Katie Zacharia on 2026-10-16 and Lt. Gen. Brett Sylvia on 2026-10-28; these do not change the verdict as of the posting date.[1][2]
Context. The extracted claim is a present-state assertion that departs from the post's wording: the post speculated that more members 'may' be fired, and the claim states firings are happening. The 'more' in the post implies earlier firings, which the sources support.
