Is there one person in Trump's administration that isn't corrupt? Aside from having zero qualifications for the DNI position, Grenell has ties to a fugitive Eastern European oligrarch. There seems no end to the dregs of humanity Trump will install in his administration. I understand Blago is looking for work.

“President Trump’s new acting intelligence director, Richard Grenell, used to do consulting work on behalf of an Eastern European oligarch who is now a fugitive and was recently barred from entering the U.S. under anti-corruption sanctions imposed last month by the State Department,” ProPublica reports.

“In 2016, Grenell wrote several articles defending the oligarch, a Moldovan politician named Vladimir Plahotniuc, but did not disclose that he was being paid.”

“Grenell also did not register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, which generally requires people to disclose work in the U.S. on behalf of foreign politicians.”
