Chuck Schumer Announces a Portal for Whistleblowers in Trump Administration, Urges Americans to Report Wrongdoings by DOGE

EXCERPT:

SCHUMER: “So, today, we Senate Democrats have a very simple message to the American people, and that is, if Donald Trump won’t stand up for the rule of law and Senate Republicans won’t lift a finger to hold him accountable, Senate Democrats will. So, today, I joined with a number of my colleagues to announce a new Senate Democratic whistleblower portal to help fill the void that Donald Trump created by firing the government’s independent watchdogs. The whistleblower portal will give civil servants and people of good will the chance to report on potential wrongdoing in government, abuse of power, threats to public safety. Donald Trump has tried to wipe the government clean of all transparency and accountability. That’s why they got rid of so many of the IGs, for instance. But Senate Democrats won’t let him. We believe in transparency. We believe in accountability. Donald Trump has tried to reshape our entire democracy, to fit his unlawful impulses and serve his personal political interests. Senate Democrats won’t let him. And so, we have the whistleblower portal. We’re urging Americans who see some real wrongdoing being created by this DOGE thing to report it.”
