ai generated text

US President Donald Trump has reportedly fired at least 12 internal government watchdogs, with sources suggesting the actual number to be around 17. These inspectors general were tasked with preventing fraud, waste, and abuse within government operations. The dismissals affected several federal bodies, including the departments of defense, state, interior, and energy, as well as the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Health and Human Services.

    1. These firings are Donald Trump's way of telling us he is terrified of accountability and is hostile to facts and to transparency.

    1. President Trump is dismantling checks on his power and paving the way for widespread corruption.
    2. Inspectors general are charged with rooting out government waste, fraud, abuse, and preventing misconduct.

    1. I don't understand why one would fire individuals whose mission it is to root out waste, fraud and abuse.
  6. US
    Chuck Grassley

    1. There may be good reason the IGs [inspectors-general] were fired. We need to know that if so.
    2. I'd like further explanation from President Trump. Regardless, the 30 day detailed notice of removal that the law demands was not provided to Congress.
  7. US

    1. The whole system needs to be revamped! They are toothless and protect the institution instead of the citizens.
