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. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We don't yet know the extent of the damage done to our workforce. We continue to receive reports of past, ongoing, and future terminations.
