Trump moves to fire watchdog of US housing regulator involved in crackdown, sources say

The Trump administration is removing Joe Allen, the acting inspector general of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), amid political tensions. This follows FHFA Director Bill Pulte's support for Trump and his actions against perceived political enemies. The administration has dismissed nearly two dozen agency watchdogs, raising concerns. Senator Elizabeth Warren has demanded accountability from Pulte regarding Allen's ouster, which comes after Allen provided information to prosecutors. The FHFA's Office of Inspector General currently lists the position as vacant.
