The reason can not be simply that the President doesn't like him. That would overthrow the whole point of oversight."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Originally posted by JimL View PostIf so, then it is up to the President to make that clear to Congress. Trump is attempting to rid the government of any independent oversight into his Administration. Do you approve of that idea?"The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

Originally posted by lilpixieofterror View PostI see that you’re trying to avoid admitting you’re wrong again, but the primary function of the IG is to give government workers an group, independent from their local chain, a place to report grievances, fraud, etc. The IG is not an independent agency nor an agency of Congress. Even at that, there is not one IG, but over a thousand. Just another hit piece designed to make something look much worse than it actually is.

Originally posted by JimL View PostWrong, as usual. The function of the IG's is not just someone to report grievances, fraud etc to. Its function is to audit and investigate, which is what this State Dept IG was allegedly doing with respect to Pompeo when he was fired."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

But point out abuse of power at Trumps hand and everything they claim to believe in or be against wrt Obama or others is 'no big deal'. They actually seem to revel in Trump's abuse of power. In my opinion, this is all about sticking it to the democrats, no matter what the long term costLast edited by oxmixmudd; 05-17-2020, 02:24 PM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19
