Paul Martin, the inspector general at the USAID was fired on Tuesday just one day after his office released a report blasting the Trump Administration for working to gut the agency, according to CNN.

Martin, a Biden holdover, was terminated effective immediately.

NBC News also confirmed the firing.

“On behalf of President Donald J. Trump, I am writing to inform you that your position as Inspector General of the United States Agency for International Development is terminated, effective immediately,” Trent Morse, deputy director of the Office of Presidential Personnel, said to Paul Martin in an email obtained by NBC News. “Thank you for your service.”

CNN reported:

The inspector general of the US Agency for International Development was fired on Tuesday, a day after his office released a report critical of the Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle the agency, a source familiar with the matter told CNN.

Paul Martin was informed by an email from the deputy director of the Office of Presidential Personnel on Tuesday evening that his position as inspector general of USAID was “terminated, effective immediately.”

A spokesperson for the USAID Office of Inspector General confirmed Martin’s termination and said no reason was given for his ouster. CNN has reached out to the White House for comment.

Tension started building up earlier this month after the Trump Admin put two top leaders at the US Agency for International Development on leave because they refused to give Elon Musk’s DOGE classified documents.

The Democrats aren’t taking it well. Their money laundering operation was shut down by Trump and they’re panicking.

President Trump said Musk’s DOGE will help uncover hundreds of billions of dollars of waste and abuse.

“We’re going to find billions, hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud and abuse. And, you know, the people elected me on that,” President Trump told Fox News host Bret Baier on Sunday.

Paul Martin’s IG office released a report on Monday criticizing the Trump Admin and Musk’s DOGE for working to reduce staffing.

A day later Paul Martin was fired.
