From Breitbart: Inspectors general for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) are heading for the exit before the new Trump administration takes power, the Project on Government Oversight (POGO) reported Monday.
The departure of the agency watchdogs represents some of the first officials to remove themselves from the administrative state before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. Trump has vowed rid the federal bureaucracy of rogue and corrupt actors.
To carry out those reforms, Trump nominated John Ratcliffe, the former director of national intelligence from 2020 to 2021, to lead the CIA. He also nominated Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democrat congresswoman from Hawaii, to be Director of National Intelligence.

The Project on Government Oversight (POGO), clearly a leftist organization, is in a panic and blasting out messages on social media over Trump’s plan to conduct mass deportations.
This dangerous threat from our next president would exploit a serious loophole in the law. It’s another example of how the executive branch has far too much power. Congress needs to take real action to reclaim its role as a check on presidential power. https://t.co/zH2R4fdr4g

Last week, POGO fired off a letter to Joe Biden, asking him to “remove Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General Joseph V. Cuffari” and to “nominate permanent, qualified replacements for this critical watchdog, as well as the inspector general for the General Services Administration.”
“We urge you to nominate replacements for IG Cuffari and for the vacant inspector general position at the General Services Administration as soon as possible. DHS needs an effective and qualified permanent inspector general as we face an incoming administration that has promised mass deportations and detentions,” POGO wrote to Biden.
