The health department's top watchdog vowed to Congress that Trump's moves to fire or replace inspectors general would not affect more than a dozen ongoing probes into the administration’s Covid19 response
The health department's top watchdog vowed to Congress on Tuesday that President Donald Trump's moves to fire or replace inspectors general — including his recent effort to effectively oust her — would not affect more than a dozen ongoing probes into the administration’s Covid-19 response.
Meanwhile, panel Republicans took issue with the need for a briefing — saying that Grimm’s survey relied on hospital responses that are now outdated — and disputed the media coverage of Trump’s nomination of a full-time HHS inspector general. “Any allegation that Christi Grimm was fired or removed for issuing a report is simply incorrect,” said Rep. Jim Jordan , the ranking member.
However, Trump has shown he'll move to oust Senate-confirmed inspectors general if they anger him. Trump removed intelligence community inspector general Michael Atkinson last month, citing Atkinson's handling of a whistleblower complaint that fueled the House's impeachment inquiry. And he booted State Department IG Steve Linick earlier this month, citing a request by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who was being investigated by Linick.
