Wrong he can be fired anytime Trump chooses- the Office of Personnel Management is IN Trump's Executive Branch and the beaurocrats serve at the Pleasure of the President. Your flawed argument is exactly the reason Trump was able to Fire the "Independent" Consumer Protection Financial Bureau and OMB officer and appoint Mick Mulvaney. It's the same reason he can Fire Calabria ANYTIME and appoint a replacement. In Myers v United States, the Supreme Court confirmed ANYONE appointed by the President can be Removed by the President. Article 2 Section 1 "The Executive Power shall be vested in the President of the United States." There are ONLY 3 Branches of Power, there is no "Independent" Branch in the Federal Constitution. Trump can Fire ANYONE and APPOINT ANYONE to serve in His Executive Branch. He can clean house and Fire Every single beaurocrat if he wants. Some positions require Senate Confirmation (Appointments Clause), and they can Serve for 7 months without a confirmation. If they fail to get confirmation of the Senate after 7 months, he can appoint someone else for another 7 months until the Senate confirms.
