Trump continues "changes" in his administration, fires 17 inspectors general of independent federal agency

Trump fired 17 independent inspectors general of government agencies on Friday. The US president is expected to appoint his own people to these positions, which are considered critical to the issue of oversight.
Inspectors general at agencies including the Departments of State, Defense and Transportation were told in emails by the White House chief of staff that their jobs were being terminated immediately, according to US media reports.
The firings appear to violate federal law, which requires the president to provide justification to both houses of Congress for firings 30 days in advance. The inspector general maintains an independent position and conducts audits and investigations into reports of waste, fraud and abuse of power.
The agencies are moving forward under orders from Trump, who returned to the presidency on Monday, to reshape the federal bureaucracy by eliminating multiculturalism programs, revoking job offers and ousting at least 150 national security and foreign policy officials.
Senator Chuck Grassley opposed this decision, emphasizing that the president must tell Congress about the reasons for his departure before issuing the decision to remove him from office.
"First of all, to remind you that our Inspector General cannot be removed from office until the president, and that's any president, not just Trump. So this is a message to all of these presidents that you need to tell Congress a month in advance and set out the reasons for their removal," Grassley said.
