Wikipedia:

In April and May 2020, United States President Donald Trump dismissed the inspectors general (IGs) of five cabinet departments in the space of six weeks.[1][2] The inspectors general removed were Michael K. Atkinson, Intelligence, on April 3; Glenn Fine (acting), Defense, April 7; Christi Grimm (acting), Health and Human Services, May 1; Mitch Behm (acting), Transportation, May 15; and Steve Linick, State, May 15.[3] In four of the cases the announcement was made late on a Friday night in a classic Friday news dump.[citation needed] In several cases the fired IGs had taken an action which Trump disliked, so that the dismissals were widely described as retaliation.[4] In two other cases, questions were raised about whether the dismissals related to ongoing IG investigations into the conduct of the cabinet secretary in charge of that department.[5][6] The cumulative firings were often described as a "purge"[7] or as a "war on watchdogs".[8][9]


Past behavior predicts future behavior. Judges say this all the time.

Given his history, why would you assume that?

Ed Gallagher had his Navy Seal statis stripped for good cause, but Trump restored it. Has nothing to do with cause.

It’s 17 people at once, many in which he hired himself the first administration, not performance based.


Obv he didn’t like their performance and considering the poor job the last administration did and the state things have been left in, seems reasonable to replace some staff. People voted for him bc they want change


He violated the law


np Yes and he was supposed to notify Congress


Just a guess. He has people on the inside with evidence of specific wrong doing and those that were fired will not contest it if they are confronted with that evidence.


Oh my gosh. Have you been watching a little too much TV? Washington politicians who have made it through decades of this town are clean. They are not Hollywood A-Holes.

The ignorance continues to take me by surprise.


but Trump does not care. it's like the oligarch who parks the car illegally in Milan right in front of the Gucci store. he can pay the $$$ fine no problem, rules and fines are for normal people. Trumo wants these people out so he can install some minor Foxnews characters who are blindly loyal to him no matter what and evade any oversight. who care if these people are going to prevail in front of a judge two years from now and the government has to pay.

Trump is a business person, not a lifelong dumbass politician, like Pelosi, Schumer and Chinese Mitch.


The Senate is going to ask for evidence that they weren't doing their jobs.

But make no mistake, the stain of it will never wash off the people who participated and their children. I know, I've seen it before.


The frightening thing for me has been the dawning realization that a certain percent of the population has always had MAGA-type ideas: isolationism; an attitude of as long as I get mine, I don't care about anyone else; fear and/or hatred of the "other," particularly non-hetero people; discomfort with the growing number of non-white Americans; discomfort with the rise in economic and social power of women and what they perceive as the corresponding loss of that power in men; feelings of victimization; and so on and so forth.



Black American here. Are you new around here? My one word of advice. Next time an election rolls around, take a glance over at what black women are saying and doing. They carry the full history of the US in their legacy and act accordingly.

Just cause would have come with notice. I see this country is now being led by psychopaths and their D-student followers.

Well since most were appointed by Trump, presumably they are loyal to him.
