Via Daily Caller:

The man in charge of policing waste, fraud and abuse at the federal government’s third-largest department has been accused of suppressing a politically sensitive report, violating anti-nepotism laws and misusing agency resources, according to a letter from the Senate Committee on Homeland Security.

Charles Edwards, Deputy Inspector General at the Department of Homeland Security and de facto head of the office, was ordered by Missouri Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill and Wisconsin Republican Sen. Ron Johnson to provide sixteen separate document sets related to the allegations by July 19.

“This is supposed to be the most transparent administration in history, but we’re seeing a real pattern of this White House and their Secretaries applying pressure to inspectors general to whitewash reports,” Johnson said in an interview with The Daily Caller News Foundation.

The new IRS guy's "report" is a joke too.

"Charles Edwards, Deputy Inspector General at the Department of Homeland Security and de facto head of the office,"

"Charles Edwards" my big red ass. What was this guys name before it was Charles Edwards?

Anybody else remember the photo of Obummer sitting on a couch with his homo roommate from Pakistan? IIRC,one had his hand on the other's thigh.

" The head of the IG’s office also allegedly played a role in in covering up “relevant and damaging information” in the investigation into the Secret Service’s encounters with Colombian prostitutes, the letter said. The senators outlined allegations that Edwards is “susceptible to political pressure,” saying whistleblowers claimed he “intentionally changed and withheld information” in both internal documents and the public report.

Edwards allegedly required his employees to drive him and his wife around on “personal errands,” helped his wife secure improper benefits and falsely claimed to make “site visits” to an IG office in Florida in order to attend classes for his Ph.D -- all on the taxpayers’ dime. Whistleblowers accused Edwards of requiring his staff to do his schoolwork and write his dissertation paper. Edwards allegedly offered bonuses to staffers who assisted him with his Ph.D work.

The senators received complaints that Edwards asked his staff to “complete lesson plans and compile homework assignments” for a class he taught at Capitol College in Laurel, Md., as an adjunct professor.

Employees who refused or questioned Edwards faced penalties, whistleblowers said. Edwards allegedly placed these workers on administrative leave or fired them and assisted adverse actions against personnel with grievances. He also “improperly interfered” with the reinstatement of one former employee’s security clearance, complaints alleged."
