    There are obvious violations of law in this case. I think Walpin has a very good chance of winning this lawsuit and bringing to light the real reasons for his firing.

      They fired the wrong IG.
      Elizabeth Coleman the IG for the Federal Reserve is the one who needs fired

      If you haven't followed the story of the IG for the Federal Reserve, it is SHOCKING

      Back in February Bloomberg.com ran this story:
      U.S. Taxpayers Risk $9.7 Trillion on Bailout Programs

      The stimulus package the U.S. Congress is completing would raise the government’s commitment to solving the financial crisis to $9.7 trillion, enough to pay off more than 90 percent of the nation’s home mortgages.

      The Federal Reserve, Treasury Department and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation have lent or spent almost $3 trillion over the past two years and pledged up to $5.7 trillion more. The Senate is to vote this week on an economic-stimulus measure of at least $780 billion. It would need to be reconciled with an $819 billion plan the House approved last month.

      Only the stimulus bill to be approved this week, the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program passed four months ago and $168 billion in tax cuts and rebates enacted in 2008 have been voted on by lawmakers. The remaining $8 trillion is in lending programs and guarantees, almost all under the Fed and FDIC. Recipients’ names have not been disclosed.

      Coleman testified before a Congressional committee and Rep. Alan Grayson asks the Federal Reserve Inspector General about the trillions of dollars lent or spent by the Federal Reserve and where it went, and the trillions of off balance sheet obligation

      This is an IG who is a dupe for the Federal Reserve
      She either doesn't have a clue about what is going on or she is a captured regulator - incompetent or corrupt- you decide

      Note: Rep Grayson is a Democrat and I say - GOOD FOR HIM for bringing this fiasco to light
      Too bad the MSM seems to be ignoring the story
