Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has resigned after a tenure marked by allegations that she had an affair with a security staffer and that her husband sexually assaulted her employees.

Chavez-DeRemer’s departure makes her the third Senate-confirmed Cabinet official — all of whom are women — to leave the administration under President Donald Trump’s second term.

It is unclear when her resignation is effective. The Labor Department and the White House and did not immediately respond to MS NOW’s request for comment.

Vice President JD Vance is now the public face of President Trump’s Iran deal, despite Vance reportedly opposing the war in private. While the latest talks in Switzerland produced an interim agreement allowing UN nuclear inspectors back into Iran, key issues, including Tehran’s nuclear program, remain unresolved.

“It’s kind of hard to tell his name is gone.”

At the end of May, a federal judge ordered the Kennedy Center to remove Trump’s name from the building. While his name is now gone, a tarp still obscures the facade where it once appeared.
