One of the authors of this piece, Susan Hennessey, was briefly interviewed on The Economist's "checks and balance" US politics podcast this week [1]. Discussion with Hennessy starts about 26:45 in.
As well as touching on Krebs' firing, Hennessy also discusses the difference between political appointees and career track public service roles, and efforts to "burrow" political appointees in career track roles where they could potentially persist after the current administration departs [2].
