Will Biden be willing to fire the DHS Inspector General Cuffari now that he is refusing to hand over information to Jan. 6 committee about deleted Secret Service text messages?
Will Biden be willing to fire the DHS Inspector General Cuffari now that he is refusing to hand over information to Jan. 6 committee about deleted Secret Service text messages?
Biden moves slowly on most things. If he does fire Cuffari, it will likely be too late to matter because the chance to retrieve the deleted information may already have passed and the witnesses synchronized their stories. Also, the House January 6 Committee may be gone by this January. Cuffari, who has a history of misconduct, should already have been fired but the fact that Biden has not done it makes me think he is worried about the politics of the thing—he promised to fire no IGs during his POTUS run—so at best he would wait until after the midterms. But again, the damage will long ago have been done by then.
