It means that he dismissed the temporary attorney general from her job.
To fire = to dismiss a person from their job
Acting in this context means someone who is working in a position temporarily until they are declared in the permanent position or until a more suitable person is appointed.
AG = attorney general

Greetings,
It means President Trump fired(remove from the job) his acting attorney general on Monday night, removing her as the nation’s top law enforcement officer after she defiantly(disregarded) refused to defend his executive order closing the nation’s borders to refugees and people from predominantly Muslim countries.
Hope it helps
