Thank you, Ryan Zinke, For $1,000
Ryan Zinke, the new Secretary of the Interior, used to be the congressman from Montana.
He was nominated right off the bat by Trump last December, but wasn’t confirmed until March 1st. So, Zinke gets a campaign contribution to the Zinke Victory Fund from Big Sky Mineral Resources.
Corporate contributions are illegal on the federal level. If you receive an illegal contribution you’re supposed to “disgorge” or surrender it to the U.S. Treasury because it is the proceeds of a crime.
So Zinke wrote us a check for $1,000, which almost will pay for 90 seconds of Melania Trump’s New York security detail.
Hey, Zinke, every little bit helps.
