What is the point of being president if you can’t be president?
The need to make sure the put someone in there who won’t care where the money goes. That’s the most important thing. We don’t need nosey bureaucrats digging around looking to see if Jared ended up with a massive loan restructuring here, do we?
You would think this is from an episode of 'Yes Minister'.
He cleaned up the EPA?
He probably saw that liberal math has it, one for you (citizen), two for planned parenthood . . .
The musical cries of the liberal agony of defeat.
May the din incrementally increase after the November election.
I wonder if President Trump suspected he had another Atkinson on his hands.
Glenn Fine is a fine and loyal Democrat operative, willing to do the bidding of the Party’s Central Committee. An Atkinson wannabe.
Not surprising... The sad memories of Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili's untimely death still haunt the the media arm of the CPUSA...

Inspector General
Fine was appointed Inspector General of the Department of Justice by President Bill Clinton in 2000. The office is expected to be non-partisan.[5]
Retirement as DOJ IG
Fine resigned as the DOJ Inspector General in February 2011. He joined Dechert as a partner in the White Collar & Securities Litigation Practice on September 6, 2011.[7] Shortly after he announced his retirement, the New York Times praised Fine’s tenure as the DOJ Inspector General:
The Department of Justice’s inspector general, Glenn Fine, stepped down on Friday after a decade of pushing to clean up and depoliticize a hyperpoliticized department. He will be missed. Mr. Fine’s best-known efforts came in 2008 when he documented the George W. Bush administration’s politically driven firings of four United States attorneys and its politically driven hirings (breaking the civil service law) of scores of civil servants at the Civil Rights Division. Last year, he continued to detail the F.B.I.’s widespread misuse since 2001 of ‘exigent letters’... President Obama should appoint a vigilant successor to Mr. Fine, one who will continue to expose the department’s shortcomings and their costs.[7]
Other newspapers also praised his tenure as the DOJ IG. The Washington Post wrote, “The job of Inspector General is often thankless one, requiring the ability to make unflinching and crucial assessments that are not always well received by colleagues. The Justice Department employed one of the best during the past decade in the person of Glenn A. Fine, who recently stepped down. Mr. Fine was instrumental in unearthing problems and identifying solutions in the mammoth agency since joining the IG’s office in the mid-1990s. He took over the reins in 2000 and led investigations into all facets of the department’s operations”.[8] A segment on NPR praised Fine as “a model IG.”[9]
Return to public service
In June 2015, Fine returned to Public Service and accepted a position as the Principal Deputy Inspector General of the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General (DOD OIG). On January 10, 2016, Fine became the Acting Inspector General for the DOD.[10]
