OAK RIDGE, TN: “The Trump (regime) halted firings of hundreds of federal employees tasked with working on nuclear programs - the about-face has left workers confused and experts cautioning blind cost-cutting by billionaire Musk puts communities at risk.” www.wbir.com/article/news...

Again, Trump fired SBA Inspector General Mike Ware after he found $200 billion in fraud in Trump's COVID programs and returned $40B to the US Treasury.

Instead, Trump brought in a bunch of fascist boys who know nothing about accounting.

During my time as Inspector General, I have returned over $40 billion to the U.S. Treasury in fraudulent loans issued under pandemic relief programs, including the Paycheck Protection Program and Economic Injury Disaster Loan program. More broadly, I uncovered over $200 billion in potential fraud within these pandemic relief programs, which could lead to billions more cost savings for the U.S. government. I have also helped pass measures that made it easier for the government to tackle fraud in the future. That vitally important work is ongoing, and my unlawful termination has prevented me from continuing to supervise it during my lawful term of office.
