Trump defends ousting at least 15 independent inspectors general in late-night purge

Despite what Donald Trump says, there is nothing "standard" about this weekend's mass firing of inspectors general.

It is unprecedented and, without advance notice to Congress, illegal.

IGs are independent watchdogs who safeguard against waste, fraud and abuse.

This will be bad for the country.
