There has been a great deal of chaos in January, which we are told is a month despite the incontrovertible fact that it has been five years long, and we haven't even gotten to mention the sex scandal involving a Cabinet secretary yet. In the Before Times, this story would have been A Thing. In the second Trump administration, it gets buried by the illegal military raid on a sovereign nation and the murder of a protester by a member of America's newly unleashed secret police and the same secret police occupying an entire city and the president blowing up an 80-year-old defense alliance over who gets sovereignty over an iced-in rockpile and the roaring return of the measles and the president getting regifted a Nobel Peace Prize like he's in the saddest white elephant gift exchange in history and ...

And that's just since New Year's.

So, Cabinet secretary sex scandal. It's nice to have something relatively low stakes to think about before the next Trump administration atrocity, which should have hit the news by the time you finish reading this sentence.

The Cabinet member is Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer. To her credit, she has managed to keep a low profile this year while nitwits like Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, Pam Bondi, Kristi Noem and Scott Bessent hoover up all the attention like a bunch of less intelligent Roombas. This ability to avoid the spotlight has allowed Chavez-DeRemer to get busy banging a subordinate behind her husband's back. ALLEGEDLY.

Of course, Noem has also allegedly been banging a subordinate behind her husband's back. It's just that adultery is the least repulsive thing about Kristi Noem, whose ethical ledger is so deep in the red that cheating on a spouse might not even be worth recording.
