“The Trump administration has fired about 17 independent inspectors general at government agencies, a sweeping action to remove oversight of his new administration that some members of Congress are suggesting violated federal oversight laws.”
“Congress was not given the legally required 30-day notices about the removals…”
“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,” said Grassley”
“Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., acknowledged that the firings violated statutes but shrugged it off: “Just tell them you need to follow the law next time”

In his 1st term, Trump fired just 5 independent inspector generals and that also he did so in mid 2020. Towards the end of his term basically. Now he’s fired 17 of them in his 1st week. Fun times coming up!
