The Trump administration is rallying around Labor Secretary
#Lori #Chavez-#DeRemer
as she faces professional misconduct allegations
that led to the suspension of two of her top aides last week.

The aides were named in a complaint to the agency’s inspector general
alleging that they had scheduled personal travel during what were supposed to be official, taxpayer-funded trips,
according to a report earlier this month in the New York Post.

The embattled former Republican congresswoman was also accused of having an affair with a staffer
and drinking in her office during the workday, the outlet reported.

On Sunday, the newspaper reported that investigators found an alcohol stash in her office
and uncovered evidence that she took subordinates to a strip club while on a government trip.
