Zinke Insisted On Having His Christmas Party Before Being Booted

The secretary’s final public appearance was Thursday night at his Christmas party, which he told White House staffers he wanted to have before his dismissal. He invited lobbyists and conservative activists to his executive suite, where he posed for photos in front of a large stuffed polar bear wearing a Santa cap, according to an attendee.

Mounted animals on the wall were fitted with ornaments.

He already 10? or so without the Dem. House.
My guess is that the WH has to focus on Trump investigations--no time for Zinke!



..........The White House was reportedly concerned about the maelstrom of investigations a Democratic-majority House would bring for Zinke and wanted him out before the new term.

who are now becoming aware of just how corrupt this Guy is. He was to be the GOP Golden Boy to get billions in earmarks for Montana as per one friend.

Funny how these smart assed politicians get their comeupins.
