I saw Senator Durbin decry the action, saying it's a federal law to notify Congress with a 30 day intent to fire IGs (BTW, he hired them during 1st term) and details on why. But if I had posted Durbin's comment, I would have expected Conservative criticism about Durbin. However, a GOP also criticized the move:
"Congress was not given 30-day notices about the removals -- something that even a top Republican is decrying.
"There may be good reason the IGs were fired. We need to know that if so," Sen. Chuck Grassley, chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said in a statement. "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, R-Iowa."
IGs are nonpartisan, and sometimes works in more than one administration, under Democrats and Republicans. They root out waste, fraud and abuse in various departments. If they get replaced by hard right loyalists, what will happen to claims and violations of fraud, waste, and abuse?
