    Default Trump's Interior Chief to Step Down as Pressure Mounts From Ethics Inquiries

    Good riddance!

    (Bloomberg) -- Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke has notified the White House that he intends to step down amid federal investigations into his travel, political activity and potential conflicts of interest, according to three people familiar with the matter.

    Zinke’s decision, expected to be announced on Wednesday, comes as Democrats, who’ve vowed to grill the him over his conduct, are about to take control of the House of Representatives, raising the prospect of heightened oversight -- and a crush of legal bills from defending himself.

    Concern about all the scrutiny and legal costs on the horizon were factors in Zinke’s decision to quit, said the people, who asked not to be identified to discuss it.

    Good... Pruitt and Zinke never gave a flying fig about Americans.

    I really do not think this is what Dump meant by "draining the swamp".

    Trump sure seems to hire employees and surround himself with people known to be liars, to be corrupt, and even criminal.

    I wonder why??

    Trump doesn't know anything else.. He has NO character, NO integrity and NO core values.
