45's pick to head The Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (Brenda Fitzgerald) has resigned over a conflict of interest.
Apparently she purchased shares in Japan Tobacco and stocks in a number of health care companies after taking office.

Meanwhile: Another Trump appointee using his position to enrich himself and his family is Dr. Ben Carson over at HUD.
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson allowed his son to help organize an agency “listening tour” in Baltimore last summer despite warnings from department lawyers that doing so risked violating federal ethics rules.

Then there was the little matter of a $485,000 no bid contract awarded to the consulting company run by Carson's daughter-in-law by one of the groups that his son invited to the event in Baltimore.

Why not?
If the first family is going to use the office for financial gain, then it should be okay for everyone else to do it.
Drain that swamp!
