I'm not going to bash or defend Wray and/or Whitaker over that incident - and yes, it was BULLSHIT- but if you think any reprimand would be public knowledge, I think you're wrong. If there has been/will be a reprimand over this incident, we may never know. The only way I see it becoming public, is if the person who greenlighted it is fired. And a termination or official reprimand would take lots of time because they would go through all the proper channels first.
Anons keep thinking that RBG has to attend the SOTU and that is simply not true. Several Justices have skipped SOTU in the past, and RBG did not attend the one last year.
There have also been USAID audits that most likely cut off a source of $$$. Here's a snippet of a report on just one of those. (SIGAR = Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction) Emphasis mine.
SIGAR first reported on salary support paid by
the Department of State (State) and the U.S.
Agency for International Development (USAID) to the Afghan government in October 2010. At that time, SIGAR concluded that '''weaknesses in hiring, promoting, and paying Afghan recipients of salary support had put the U.S. government’s and other donors’ salary
support funding at risk of waste, misuse, or
corruption.'''
