The US government’s former ethics chief is slamming the Biden administration for a potentially “illegal” nepotism spree, saying that it “royally sucks” and is “a real ‘f— you'” to ethical governance.

Walter Shaub, director of the US Office of Government Ethics from 2013 to 2017, gained fame for frequently faulting the Trump administration, but turned his fire on President Biden on Friday.

Shocking (NOT)- but I'm sure they were all the best qualified applicant for whatever sham job they were hired for. (If there even were other applicants for these positions.)

And Mr. Shaub does not need to be such a potty mouth.

“Mr. Shaub does not need to be such a potty mouth.”

Talking like a teen girl is a sign of a weak mind.

“Ten percent for the Big Guy” is all over the highest reaches of government now and won’t be pried away because there isn’t anyone left to do the prying.

Is this better or worse that the Clinton Global Initiative or whatever sham charity the Clintoons had set up to enrich themselves and their minions?

I’m pleasantly surprised that someone who criticized a republican pres is being tough on Biden for nepotism, too-a breath of actual honesty...

Mr. Shaub’s choice of descriptive language is refreshing, too-part of the GOPe’s problem is that too many of them cringe and whine over calling a clusterf*** exactly that...

About the same because it all is the same. Chelsea the Frog Princess and Hunter Biden are two faces on the same coin.

Does this guy have a death wish? Regardless, kudos to him.

To be generous, there are probably a lot of clueless Democrats like him who believe what they’re told and have no idea the rot, lies and grift behind the scenes.

This guy deserves credit for coming forward. May God protect him.

That would be one ugly coin.

"...Walter Shaub, director of the US Office of Government Ethics..."

When someone can freely admit to holding a position like that in the Obama Administration, it only proves two things: There is no such thing as shame anymore, and there are no laws for those in power who choose, as the Obama and Biden Administrations do, to ignore and break them at will.
