The dismissals appeared to violate federal law, which requires Congress to receive 30 days’ notice of any intent to fire the inspectors general.
Some of the government’s largest agencies were involved, including the Departments of Defense, State, Transportation, Veterans Affairs, Housing and Urban Development, Interior, and Energy.
Most of those dismissed were Trump appointees from his first term, which stunned the group.

Is anyone going to enforce said violations? My guess is absolutely no one.
