Do they schedule the potlucks to coincide with lots of Feds being let go? Are the potlucks organized by new bosses to compel employees to celebrate them? Is there a possibility that these potlucks are funded by tax revenue?

How is a staff potluck different from the agency head throwing herself a giant birthday party on the government dime? Gosh I do not know. It is very confusing.

This article is glorious. Some highlights:

His office leadership once instructed political appointees to act as servers for a multicourse meal. They also dispatched a U.S. Park Police helicopter for his personal transportation. On at least one occasion, a political appointee was told to remake the cookies because the batch was subpar, according to three people.


Did you read the rest of the article? All of the incidents are explained and truly sound like no big deal. None of it is anywhere near as salacious as that one paragraph makes it out to be.

What's interesting is that this obviously came from the political appointees. I wonder who's trying to take him down from the inside.

Good lord. Didn't they have to run Ryan Zinke out on rails during the first Trump administration? These Interior Secretaries are little Napoleons.
