Since Democrats are in meltdown over the fired Inspectors General, remember that Norm Eisen fired IGs for clearly political reasons under Obama.
Eisen went on MSNBC to attack @realDonaldTrump for something he did.
The Inspector General for the Corporation for National and Community Service (AmeriCorps) Gerald Walpin was fired by Eisen after his tough oversight efforts to hold senior officials accountable for excusing a friend/Obama crony who mismanaged charter school funds and was sexually inappropriate towards students.
The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee and the Senate Finance Committee put out a 62 page report, “The Firing of the Inspector General for the CNCS,” outlined how Obama allies and Eisen were able to remove Walpin without a formal review.
The White House Counsel’s Office withheld information from Congress and misled investigators after Rep. Issa and Sen. Grassley questioned the President’s methods and motives for removing Walpin.
There was sizable evidence the removal was motivated by a desire to protect a friend and political ally of the President, Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson. The Inspector General and CNCS management were clashing over an inquiry into misuse of federal grant funds at a charity run by Johnson, including personal services like car washes and pay for political campaign work. The Inspector General was pushing aggressively to require Johnson to repay the federal grant money that his charity could not account for.
Eisen personally delivered an illegal ultimatum to. He demanded that Walpin resign or be terminated within one hour. At the time he delivered the ultimatum, no notice had been provided to Congress as is legally required by the Inspector General Reform Act.
While undergoing Senate Confirmation hearings, Eisen refused to answer questions from Senator Chuck Grassley about the matter and later lied about his conduct. His lies were so blatant he issued an apology to Senator Grassley.

🚨Meet the Judge denying the Trump administration’s move to fire bureaucrats at six federal agencies.
Ana de Alba is a self-described “lefty liberal from Berkeley” who worked with the Mexican government to advise illegal aliens how to avoid deportation.
Alba was previously on the Board of Legal Aid at Work, which preps illegal aliens for ICE raids by telling them "do not answer any questions."
The group hosts "Know Your Rights" clinics to help illegals avoid deportation.
Alba has repeatedly held "Know Your Rights" lecture for "undocumented workers" on behalf of the Consulates of Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.
NEW: Democrats have been secretly plotting a new “election security” group bankrolled by philanthropists and private money.
They want to become “federal support for real-time election cybersecurity.”
Started by Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontana, VOTE-ISAC, is “an independent organization committed to safeguarding elections and restoring international confidence in the integrity of our democratic processes.”
A memo outlining the new group states “federal support for real-time election cybersecurity once provided through agencies like CISA and the FBI has been abruptly dismantled.”
“This action has eliminated vital threat intelligence, halted defenses against Advanced Persistent Threat Actors, and sidelined hundreds of cybersecurity experts. Given the scale of modern cybercrime which, if it were a nation, would have the world’s third-largest GDP, the stakes for protecting election infrastructure are too high to ignore.”
