Safeguards only matter when there are people and institutions to enforce them. Remember all those people they fired? All part of the plan.

This. Everyone is waiting for “the day” to come but they were all laid off back in April. This is why no one is stopping this. Everyone is doing it.

Which people specifically. Can you provide a source?

Here’s a small example. There are more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_dismissals_of_U.S._inspec...

Seems like a long history of firing IGs instated in prior administrations.

The article you posted is about a truly damning investigation into Joseph Cuffari.

Cuffari is STILL the IG at DHS. He was not fired -- sheesh:

So it's only ok for one party to fire IGs?

Who said anything about parties? And who said anything about it being okay to fire IGs (especially illegally).

Which IG did anyone say it was okay to fire? The article you posted to support this idea wasn’t even fired! He’s still in the job.

It seems that you are primarily interested in polarizing this discussion. I’ll leave you to that. I’m out.
