Trump's Cabinet has been rocked by a number of ethics scandals — here's a complete guide

Those are just up to Feb of 2018.

This one is from FOX News:

Trump Cabinet officials in the crosshairs as Dems zero in on DeVos, Zinke, others

House Democrats have signaled a particular interest in probing Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, and Housing and Urban Development head Ben Carson. Other possible officials to go under the microscope include Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, though Trump reportedly has indicated she may leave the administration, and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross.

It's reported that Nick Mulvaney insisted on the title of "ACTING" Chief of Staff because he wants a "way out" when/if the administration goes down.

So if you cut and run, can you still be charged with a crime?

The answer is "yes". If you looted, lied to congress or the FBI, committed fraud and so on, those are still crimes. Democrats take back the house. It's not IF Trump's people are going to be investigated, it's "who will be first". If you committed a crime, the only thing protecting you is the statute of limitations.

It's the obligation of the Congress to maintain oversight over this administration. If Democrats find crimes that caused Republicans to look the other way, 2020 is going to be a landslide. Meet the party that is the real party of "Law and Order". And they are about to bring some order to the lawless.

Could you imagine if most or all of Trump's Cabinet ends up in court trying to keep from going to jail?

It's assumed Republicans will loot the country. They have for decades. It's who they are.

But this time, they went too far. Now they will have to face the American public.

Why do you think they worked so hard in Wisconsin and Michigan and other states to stack the deck on their way out as lame ducks? They know what's about to happen. No where is it clearer than the Republicans in North Carolina.

There’s election fraud in North Carolina. That’s not the same thing as voter fraud.
