House, Senate panels to question ousted State Dept. inspector general on Wednesday: report
By Zack Budryk - 05/31/20 04:22 PM EDT

Two House panels and one Senate committee will interview former State Department Inspector General Steve Linick about his ouster by President Trump Wednesday, according to the Associated Press.

Both the House Foreign Affairs and Oversight committees will interview Linick Wednesday, as will the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the AP reported, citing two congressional aides who spoke on conditions of anonymity.

The planned interviews in the House committees represent an expansion of a probe into several recent firings of agency watchdogs by the president. House Democrats hope to also interview several administration officials about Linick’s firing in mid-May and whether Secretary of State Mike Pompeo recommended it as a retaliatory measure.

Grassley sent a letter.  The White House had said they would respond Tuesday.  Last Tuesday.  Don't know if they did.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
