Lori Chavez-DeRemer has resigned from her position as Labor Secretary in Donald Trump's administration following serious misconduct allegations, including claims of an affair with a subordinate and drinking on the job. Her resignation marks her as the third cabinet member to depart during Trump's second term, joining Kristi Noem, the former homeland security secretary, and Pam Bondi, the former attorney general. Chavez-DeRemer is currently under investigation by the department's inspector general for various allegations, including maintaining a stash of alcohol in her office and misusing government resources for personal travel. In a related development, FBI Director Kash Patel is facing allegations of excessive drinking and has filed a defamation lawsuit against The Atlantic for reporting these claims. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has called for Patel's resignation, emphasizing that Americans deserve sober leadership from their FBI Director.
