“has created undue pressure on OGE’s staff and agency ethics officials.....”

Translation: You expect us to work 8 hours a day like other people?

Just for laughs it would be interesting to see the level of this offices concern for compliance in the first bozo transition.

May I be the first to say, Fake News.

You can call this 'fake news', but it's not. These obamatards are most definitely conspiring to slow walk the confirmation of all of Trump's nominees.

How can they be “moving too fast?” We’re still waiting on Senate approval of Obama’s cabinet members.

Oh, that’s right. He didn’t need them because he appointed “czars” instead.

Anyone remember what the ethics office (or NPR for that matter) had to say about that?

Oh, I remember reading last year that Trump’s cabinet picks were moving slower than any other president in the history of the universe.

In a letter to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., released Saturday...

Reid and Pelosi 2.0.

So, a bunch of democrat-appointed minions from democrat party states and democrat party federal mid-level bureaucracies. And as always, the proper share of race, sex and homosexual selectees.

Couldn't tell that by your comment. Sometimes it helps to be specific.
