Sen. #Adam #Schiff, D-Calif., on Sunday blasted President Donald Trump for his decision to fire 18 inspectors general late Friday night and accused the president of breaking the law.
“To write off this clear violation of law by saying, ‘Well,’ that ‘technically, he broke law.’
-- Yeah, he broke the law,” Schiff told NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”
His comment was responding to Sen. #Lindsey #Graham, R-S.C., who earlier in the program told “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker that
-- “technically, yeah,” Trump had violated the #Inspector #General #Act, which Congress amended to strengthen protections from undue termination for inspectors general.
“I’m not, you know, losing a whole lot of sleep that he wants to change the personnel out. I just want to make sure that he gets off to a good start,” Graham added
