Incoming White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus warned that he felt the head of the government ethics office was getting very political.

The director has called for Donald Trump to fully divest his assets before he assumes the presidency.

WASHINGTON ― Incoming White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus warned the head of the Office of Government Ethics on Sunday to “be careful” in his criticisms of President-elect Donald Trump.

OGE Director Walter Shaub last week panned Trump’s plan to address his business conflicts as “meaningless,” marking the second time the director called on the president-elect to fully divest his assets before he assumes the presidency this week.

“The head of the government ethics ought to be careful because that person is becoming extremely political,” Priebus said on ABC News’ “This Week.”

Priebus is not only becoming very political, he is skirting illegality in threatening the ethics chief.
