The inspector generals for the Central Intelligence Agency and Office of the Director of National Intelligence resigned from their oversight roles after former President Donald Trump's re-election victory.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence’s Thomas Monheim and the CIA's Robin Ashton are the two IGs who resigned.
Monheim and Ashton were nominated by President Biden in 2021 and confirmed by the Senate.
“After more than 38 years of public service, I am retiring from the federal government at the end of this year. It has been the pinnacle of my rewarding career to serve alongside the dedicated officers at CIA for the last three and a half years as the CIA Inspector General,” Ashton said in a statement provided through a CIA spokesperson, according to a report from the Project On Government Oversight (POGO). “I have every confidence that the exceptional work of the Office of the Inspector General will continue to have positive impact on behalf of the American people.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Interesting. Inspector Generals of two pretty major agencies; CIA and DNI. Could it be those "watch-dogs" have been part of the continuing cover-up of corruption by the left rather than doing the job of oversight of those two agencies?
Are they "getting out of Dodge" before they can be questioned about their actions, or lack thereof?

New watchdogs won’t be Yorkie lapdogs now.
