Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke has often said that he’s not afraid of a fight. In an interview with Breitbart News last month, the former Montana congressman and Navy SEAL dismissed reports that his days in the Trump administration were numbered as nothing more than rumors. “I’ve been in a lot of firefights. I don’t mind getting shot at,” he said. “It is better to charge up a hill under fire than cower in a foxhole.” Stepping down now “may spare Zinke some embarrassment, but it will not reduce the need for oversight of the Administration’s poor stewardship at Interior,” Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) said in a statement. |
