Inspector General Gerald Walpin was fired after investigating former NBA star and now Mayor of Sacramento CA, Kevin Johnson. Who btw is pals with Barack Obama. Kevin Johnson had a non-profit organization for children called St. Hope with allegations that he had misused thousands of dollars for his personal use. Inspector General Walpin investigated Johnson and found this to be true. There was media and political pressure to get Johnson off the hook so the White House called Gerald Walpin and asked him to resign. A law was passed last year by congress saying that the president had to give a 30 day notice and a reason for terminating an inspector general. Obama did not give any specific reason for Walpin's termination with one hour to resign or be fired. Gerald Walpin refused to resign. To be continued....Good gawd, the government does play dirty games, don't they? And I use to wonder why regular folk are so sick of politics and those ilks.
