Fine’s resignation comes more than a month after Trump removed him as the Pentagon’s acting inspector-general, who was to also oversee the U.S. government’s $2.3-trillion coronavirus response

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.The Defense Department’s deputy inspector-general resigned on Tuesday, more than a month after President Donald Trump removed him as the Pentagon’s acting inspector-general, who was to also oversee the U.S. government’s $2.3-trillion coronavirus response.

Most recently the State Department’s inspector-general, Steve Linick was fired. That ousting prompted heavy criticism from senior Democratic lawmakers, including House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat.“I believe the time has come for me to step down and allow others to perform this vital role,” Fine said in a statement.

Fine had been performing the duties of the Pentagon’s lead inspector-general when he was removed in early April and reverted to being the No. 2 official in the inspector-general’s office.
