  • The People Shaping the Trump Administration
    The People Shaping the Trump Administration Despite Running on a Pledge to ‘Drain the Swamp’ and Crack Down on Special Interests, Donald Trump Has Filled His Transition Team With Lobbyists and Others With Potential Conflicts November 16, 2016 – Donald Trump rode to the White House by raging about alleged rampant corruption in Washington and pledging to “drain the swamp.” Each of the five points in the ethics platform he issued in October focused on diminishing the influence of lobbyists.1 These included a promise to impose a five-year ban on former executive branch officials lobbying the federal government. Trump further promised to crack down on special interest-influence by expanding the definition of lobbyist to include consultants and others who trade on inside government information and expertise.2 But Trump’s nascent transition team, which will shape his administration, is swarming with lobbyists and other special interests. Many of the lobbyists are working for the transition on areas for which they currently are lobbying the federal government. Meanwhile, many of those who aren’t lobbyists appear to have potential conflicts of interest. Vice president-elect Mike Pence reportedly said on November 15 that the transition team would be purged of lobbyists, but the transition team has not made the point official.3 Even if true, that remedy would not address cases such as a defense contractor working on defense interests, or a lawyer for health care interests working on health care reform. Here are brief summaries of individuals who have been reported in the media as overseeing agencies or policies for Trump’s transition team.

  • Trump Administration Allies Have Burrowed Into 24 Critical Civil Service Positions and 187 Last-Minute Appointments
    Trump Administration Allies Have Burrowed Into 24 Critical Civil Service Positions And 187 Last-Minute Appointments SUMMARY: Following the outgoing administration’s “quiet push to salt federal agencies with Trump loyalists,” an Accountable.US review has found that, as of February 22, 2021, at least 24 Trump administration political appointees have “burrowed” into long-term civil service jobs in the new Biden administration. This includes at least four figures in the national security apparatus, nine figures with environmental regulators, three figures in the Department of Justice, two figures in the embattled Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and at least six other appointees elsewhere who have refused to step down in the transition. Burrowing of this sort is not treated lightly, as officials who transfer from political appointments to career positions must undergo scrutiny by federal personnel overseers for a full five years—and some of these cases have been found to violate federal laws and have drawn congressional scrutiny. However, there is a much wider slate of concerning Trump administration appointments that are not subject to such strict oversight: During the Trump administration’s waning days following the 2020 election, it announced 187 last-minute appointments to various boards, commissions, and councils that don’t require Senate confirmation. While some of these appointments have already drawn alarm for going to campaign staffers, megadonors, and top administration allies, Accountable.US has unearthed even more troubling names in Trump’s outgoing deluge. Similar to how early Trump administration personnel picks were directly conflicted against the offices they served, many of these late Trump appointments are woefully underqualified or have histories directly at odds with the positions to which they were named—and they are likely to stay in long into the Biden administration.

    December 19, 2017 VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL Records, FOIA, and Privacy Branch Office of Environmental Information Environmental Protection Agency 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue NW (2822T) Washington, DC 20460 [email protected] Re: Freedom of Information Act Request Dear Freedom of Information Officer: Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552, and the implementing regulations of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 40 C.F.R. Part 2, American Oversight makes the following request for records. On December 15, Mother Jones and the New York Times reported that EPA signed a $120,000 no-bid contract with Definers Public Affairs to provide media services.1 Definers was founded by Joe Pounder and Matt Rhoades, two longtime Republican political operatives. Mr. Pounder and Mr. Rhoades previously founded America Rising, a Republican political opposition research firm. The Times also reported that since President Trump took office, at least 40 FOIA requests have been submitted to the EPA by Allan Blutstein, a vice president for both Definers and America Rising. Many of those requests sought records about EPA employees who had been critical of the Trump administration. Earlier today, it was reported that EPA had decided to cancel the contract with Definers Public Affairs.2 However, many questions remain about the initial decision to award a no-bid contract to 1 See Rebecca Leber et al., The EPA Hired a Major Republican Opposition Research Firm to Track Press Activity, MOTHER JONES (Dec. 15, 2017, 6:00 AM), http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/12/the-epa-hired-a-major-republican-opposition- research-firm-to-track-press-activity/; Eric Lipton & Lisa Friedman, E.P.A.

    December 19, 2017 SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY Honorable Arthur A. Elkins Jr. Inspector General EPA Office of Inspector General 1200 Pennsylvania Ave, NW (2410T) Washington, D.C. 20460 Re: Suggestions for Audits and Evaluations Dear Mr. Elkins, The mission of EPA’s Office of the Inspector General is to “prevent and detect fraud, waste, and abuse through independent oversight of the programs and operations of the Environmental Protection Agency.”1 We respectfully request that the Office of the Inspector General immediately open an investigation into EPA’s decision to award a $120,000 no-bid contract to Definers Public Affairs Corporation for “news analysis and brief service focusing on EPA work and other topics of interest to EPA,” as well as EPA’s interactions with key Definers affiliates and staff members.2 Although EPA reportedly intends to terminate its contract with Definers3 in light of widespread concern,4 a full investigation is essential to determine whether EPA’s multi- faceted interactions with Definers and its affiliates has led to improper uses of agency resources. In particular, EPA’s no-bid $120,000 contract award to Definers Public Affairs Corporation raises serious questions of potential “waste, fraud, and abuse”: the organization’s partisan character and on-going promotion of Administrator Pruitt suggest that inappropriate 1 EPA Office of Inspector General, About EPA’s Office of Inspector General, https://www.epa.gov/office- inspector-general/about-epas-office-inspector-general#who_what_why. 2 https://www.usaspending.gov/Transparency/Pages/AwardSummary.aspx?AwardID=59978626. 3 See, e.g., https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/energy-environment/wp/2017/12/19/epa-to-end- controversial-contract-with-conservative-media-monitoring-firm/?utm_term=.6e3f99ccd0da; https://twitter.com/PounderFile/status/943172637202755584.
