When asked about the report during Monday's coronavirus press briefing, President Donald Trump questioned whether politics tinged the findings of the report.

"Give me the name of the inspector general. Could politics be entered into that?" Trump said.

Trump also questioned the integrity of the leadership in HHS' Office of the Inspector General, saying, "Well where did he come from, the inspector general? What's his name?"

The report was signed by a woman -- Christi Grimm, the principal deputy inspector general for HHS. Grimm has served in the federal government for more than two decades in both Democratic and Republican administrations.
