11:24Now PlayingAttorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian called it — just one day before it happened, they predicted on Civil Action that Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer would be the next to go. She resigned Monday, days before a scheduled interview with the Inspector General, becoming the third cabinet member to depart Trump's second term after Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi. All three were women. Brian and Shant use her exit to examine the revolving door of unqualified Trump appointees who get drunk with power — literally and figuratively. Chavez-DeRemer's tenure was marred by allegations of an affair with a security detail member, drinking in the office, her husband being banned from the building over sexual assault accusations against staffers, her father sending suggestive emails to young employees, staff being directed to run personal errands and design work trips around UFC fights and Morgan Wallen concerts, and the forced resignations of her chief of staff and deputy chief of staff. Her qualifications for running the agency that protects 340 million American workers: one term in Congress and helping her husband run his anesthesiology practice in Happy Valley, Oregon. Brian and Shant connect this to a broader pattern — from Kash Patel's Atlantic allegations to Noem's horseback ad campaign to Bondi's prosecutorial failures — arguing the common thread is that Trump selects loyalists over qualified professionals, and the results are predictable every time.
