President Donald Trump has grown irritated with his embattled Veterans Affairs secretary, David Shulkin, and is now making plans to remove him from his post, two sources familiar with the move tell CNN.
Trump has eyed Energy Secretary Rick Perry as a possible replacement, a person familiar with the matter said.
Trump and Perry discussed the possible move during a lunch at the White House Monday.

The real question is - is CNN a reliable source?
Perry must not be doing his job because you never hear a word about him. If you ain’t annoying the liberals you ain’t doing your job.
Seems that being interviewed for the VA job indicates the boss doesn’t think Perry is doing very well at Energy??/
The VA bureaucrats are organized crime.
Energy Dept. looks to be in better shape than the VA, and besides, the VA affects our vets and they are a solid voting bloc for the Donald.
Why the hell aren’t they just getting rid of the VA. Its stupid. Close it down. Create a small program dedicated to war injuries. Then give gold healthcare to everyone else. The VA is a waste of money.
Perry has done a good job at DoE. With responsibility for the nukes you want a steady trusted hand there.
Surprise, surprise - the one holdover turd from the Obama administration that Trump kept turns out to be ..... a turd.
Perry will fire a bunch of people the first week.
I've just about concluded that ALL government is Organized Crime.
He might be better at the VA. Hes not very aggressive as Energy Secretary, and I think hes really committed to vets (and in fact, health care issues) and he might be good at this.
More incredibly effecting executive leadership from President Trump.
...or as the left calls it “chaos”.
Some of the VA medical people are OK, but the VA bureaucrats are organized crime.
Energy....He's probably been searching for someone for a long time. Tough gig...Not sure who could fill the position and make it fit with the always changing criteria.

You know what I know .... the Left just doesn’t get Trump & it’s pretty easy to figure him out .... he is about RESULTS. If you get or are getting the results he wants, you’re fine. When you are not getting results or your usefulness in his scheme of things is spent, then you’re gone. This appears ‘chaotic’ to the Left who are used to Presidents hiring sycophants & keeping them, even if they are incompetent. Trump’s “chaos” is why he’s accomplished 64% of his agenda in his first year and continues to MAGA on :-)
Staff at my VA have saved my life multiple times...no exaggeration.
Getting through the system can be a long climb.
“Teaching hospitals” are another issue. May be a problem at other places too.
When you’re going for repeated medical care for years... Explaining medical history to the changed staff every 3-6 months is annoying AF.
The VA has been improving under Trump, and the last thing veterans need is that stupid Islamist son of a bitch being put anywhere near the VA.
Send Perry to South Africa or Zimbabwe.
