The inspector general of USAID was fired by the White House on Tuesday, days after releasing a report criticizing the Trump administration's efforts to pause the agency's funding.
The dismissal comes days after the USAID inspector general published a report that was critical of the Trump administration’s pause on aid. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
It also comes a day after USAID warned that the Trump administration’s dismantling of USAID had made it all but impossible to monitor $8.2 billion in humanitarian funds. Story tips and ideas can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
