Romney warns Trump: Don't interfere with coronavirus relief oversight

This jerkoff and his magic underwear needs to go away.
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on Friday released a letter with Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) calling on President Trump to comply with the oversight requirements Congress attached to the $2.2 trillion coronavirus relief package signed into law last week.
“With trillions of taxpayer dollars being spent, it is critically important for the Administration to ensure full transparency and willingness for independent oversight,” Romney and Tester wrote in the April 3 letter to Trump.
The senators noted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act established three level of oversight for the hundreds of billions of dollars in federal aid: a special inspector general, a congressional oversight committee and a panel of inspectors general known as the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee (PRAC).

Romney and Tester called on the president to report his administration’s plans for spending the funds to Congress.
“As you work to implement COVID-19 legislation, we ask that you provide Congress a detailed plan on how the government plans to execute these funds and what accountability measures are being put in place to ensure our taxpayer dollars are being spent efficiently and effectively,” they wrote.
Trump sparked controversy last week when he signaled in a signing statement attached to the $2.2 trillion law that his White House would supervise reports to Congress from the special inspector general for coronavirus relief, known as the SIGPR.
Citing Article II of the Constitution, Trump wrote: “I do not understand, and my Administration will not treat, this provision as permitting the SIGPR to issue reports to the Congress without the presidential supervision required by the Take Care Clause.”
Romney and Tester on Friday warned the president not to interfere in the inspector general’s quarterly reports to Congress. LINK

This Romney guy as potential to be the most aggressive Back-stabber that we've ever seen in politics. He's clearly trying to take the crown from John McCain!

No doubt in my mind that the Dems are going to try Impeachment again, this time with help from Romney!
GO DEMS! I'm enjoying the depth of your depravity and the extent to which this reflects on the current domestic political instability of the USA!
Even when the country is practically under attack from an enemy bio-agent, the Dems NEVER stop attacking their political enemies in order to seize power!
GIVE US POWER OR WE BURN DOWN THE WHOLE MAGILLA !!

Trump needs to ask Romney point blank does he want to the a Republican or a Democrat, and tell him not to threaten the President of the United States while he does what the head of the Executive Branch of Government is supposed to do.

I'm assuming that congress will clog up everyone's time, by forcing them to give 10+ hr long interviews.

You mean 10+ hr long expressions of their feelings on the topic?

If I were Trump, I'd tell Romney publicly to go F himself.

I wonder if Romney would comply with subpoenas related to Ukraine and Cofer Black.
