President Donald Trump is growing increasingly uneasy over allegations that Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke used the office for his own personal enrichment, and the President has even asked aides for information about the land deal he made in his home state that’s currently being reviewed by the Justice Department, The Washington Post reported.
According to two administration officials who spoke to the Post, Trump is worried Zinke violated rules with the land deal and other actions he’s taken as Interior secretary, but he has not vocalized any interest in firing Zinke.
The land deal is just one of several probes into Zinke’s conduct that’s currently being conducted by his department’s inspector general. Just this weekend, the Interior Department IG referred one of those investigations to the Justice Department.
Roh ruh, Zinke failed to give Trump part of the cut.
And, Donnie has helped increase the deficit with all his golfing. According to Golf Count, he has played a total of 149 games at a cost to tax payers of $79,000,000. Personal gain, you decide.
Spanky’s the only one allowed to use his office for personal gain. Everyone else can do whatever they want to help Spanky, but not themselves. I think his offspring are the exceptions to this rule, from all appearances.
Why not just label the DOJ investigation a witch hunt?
I predict this concern will last until next Tuesday. Actually, the “concern” has already passed, but not as he’d like you to believe. He’s merely hoping the favorable press speculation that perhaps the current presidential occupant has tiny vestiges of ethical decency, that he is finally “growing into the position,” will persist for a few days.
Or at least that’s that’s the plan.
