What happened to Rogers?
Same per Lou Dobbs minutes ago.
Mr. Rogers? He’s dead...Jim.
Oooh...this is going to really piss off Paul Ryan. Rogers is his puppet
Good another military man, and this time a Navy Seal!
That congresswomanfrom WA? Who cares? :)
I know that it sounds silly to question Trump on this, but what are his positions on leasing public lands?
Is this another person who hates the organization he is going to lead? That’s a good strategy to downsize Government.

She’s back to following the Speaker of the House around like a little puppy dog.
Bingo! Old Cathy is a RINO Bootlicker from Way Back!
Interesting choice. He’s a good man. Straight shooter (in many ways). I’ve known him since way before he become a congressman. I hope he accepts the position.
This is NOT good. This is the first choice I have been unhappy with.
I was hoping he’d run for the Senate against that POS Tester
Zinke served as a U.S. Navy SEAL from 1986 to 2008, retiring at the rank of Commander.[7] Zinke graduated from Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training class 136 in February 1986 and subsequently served with SEAL TEAM ONE from 1986 to 1988. His next assignment was as a First Phase Officer of BUD/S before serving with United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG) from 1991 to 1993.

Zinke is a big spender. Check his 2015 voting record.
This is NOT good. This is the first choice I have been unhappy with.
The League of Conservation Voters, which ranks lawmakers on their environmental record, gave Zinke an extremely low lifetime score of 3 percent.
The Wilderness Society, a leading conservation group, said it was concerned by Zinke’s support for logging, drilling and mining on public lands.
“His overall record and the backdrop of Cabinet nominations with close ties to the fossil fuel industry cause us grave concern,” Wilderness Society President Jamie Williams said in a statement.
I was hoping we could kick her upstairs and out of the House.
