Nothing new, it's expected from a Republican administration
When comparing criminal indictments of those serving in the executive branch of presidential administrations, it’s so lopsided as to be ridiculous.
Trump....1 yrs 4 indictments 2 convictions * prison sentences
Obama....8 yrs 0 indictments 0 convictions 0 prison sentences
Bush.....8 yrs 16 indictments 16 convictions 9 prison sentences
Clinton..8 yrs 2 indictments 1 convictions 1 prison sentences
Bush.....4 yrs 1 indictments 1 convictions 1 prison sentences
Reagan...8 yrs 26 indictments 16 convictions 8 prison sentences
Carter...4 yrs 1 indictments 0 convictions 0 prison sentences
Ford.....2 yrs 1 indictments 1 convictions 1 prison sentences
Nixon....6 yrs 76 indictments 55 convictions 15 prison sentences
Johnson..5 yrs 0 indictments 0 convictions 0 prison sentences
Democrats have been in the Oval Office for 25 of those years, while Republicans held it for 28.
In their 25 yrs in office Democrats had a total of three executive branch officials indicted with one conviction and one prison sentence.
That’s one whole executive branch official convicted of a crime in two and a half decades of Democrat leadership.
In the 28 yrs that Republicans have held office they have had a total of 120 criminal indictments of executive branch officials. 89 criminal convictions and 34 prison sentences handed down.
That’s more prison sentences than years in office since 1968 for Republicans.
Well, this is going to be one active thread

CNN: “Since becoming leader of the 70,000-employee agency, Zinke has suggested that he was a geologist or former geologist at least 40 times in public settings, including many under oath before Congress.
He uses it as a credential booster… He also uses it while discussing coal revenue, seismic activity, climate change, national monuments, precious metals, endangered species, fracking and drilling.”
“Zinke, however, has never held a job as a geologist.”
