Days Into Trump Admin, Corrupt Employees Are Already Being Fired At The VA

Days into Donald Trump’s administration, heads are finally beginning to roll at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Two notoriously corrupt employees in Puerto Rico were fired this week, indicating that more may be on the way.

One is the hospital’s CEO, DeWayne Hamlin, who offered an employee $305,000 to quit after she played a role in exposing his drug arrest.

"Mr. DeWayne Hamlin was removed from federal service effective January 20, 2017"‐inauguration day‐the VA said.

Under former Secretary of Veterans Affairs Bob McDonald, the agency ignored years of evidence about shoddy work ethic, theft and whistleblower retaliation. The VA finally began a months-long investigative proceeding last year, after an outside agency, the Office of Special Counsel, prodded VA leadership.

#3 So where did Hamlin expect to get $305k? Either he had it in his pocket, which would be interesting, or he figured it would pass in his budget, which would mean somebody higher wouldn't have a problem with it.
