If you make the IG too powerful, who guards the guards? Today’s oversight bill, tomorrow’s Office of Endless Inquiry.

Trust, but verify—this bill nudges us closer to that middle ground where oversight isn’t political theater, but policy.

Empowering the IG means less cover-up, more truth—about time watchdogs stopped fetching sticks for the big dogs.

Watchdogs shouldn’t become bloodhounds; this bill smells like micromanagement, not justice.

Finally, a bill to hold DOJ accountable—no more cloak-and-dagger immunity! If justice is blind, this act just gave her glasses.

Checks and balances aren’t just buzzwords; this bill tries to make them real at the DOJ. Let’s see if it’s fence-mending or fence-patching.
