Two prominent Republican senators have split with President Trump over his decisionto sever government security for former officials who are in Iran’s crosshairs.
Last week, Trump, 78, cut off funding for security for former Secretary of State Mike #Pompeo, ex-National Security Adviser John #Bolton and others.
Sens. #Lindsey #Graham of South Carolina and #Tom #Cotton of Arkansas, both outspoken GOP backers of Trump, are now encouraging the president to reevaluate that move.

“If people are going to work for the president now on Iran or China or North Korea or the Mexican drug cartels,
they might hesitate to do so”
because of the security withdrawal, Cotton warned

New York Post · Tom Cotton and Lindsey Graham break with Trump on nixing security for John Bolton, Mike PompeoBy Ryan King

Sen. #Adam #Schiff, D-Calif., on Sunday blasted President Donald Trump for his decision to fire 18 inspectors general late Friday night and accused the president of breaking the law.
“To write off this clear violation of law by saying, ‘Well,’ that ‘technically, he broke law.’
-- Yeah, he broke the law,” Schiff told NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”
His comment was responding to Sen. #Lindsey #Graham, R-S.C., who earlier in the program told “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker that
-- “technically, yeah,” Trump had violated the #Inspector #General #Act, which Congress amended to strengthen protections from undue termination for inspectors general.
“I’m not, you know, losing a whole lot of sleep that he wants to change the personnel out. I just want to make sure that he gets off to a good start,” Graham added
