Biden Fires Architect of the Capitol

“President Biden has fired the Architect of the Capitol Brett Blanton, a Donald Trump appointee who faced calls to resign from Republicans and Democrats after an inspector general report found ethical and administrative violations,” the Washington Post reports.

“Blanton, who oversees operation of some of the nation’s most historic buildings, was accused last year by his office’s inspector general of using government vehicles for family getaways and misrepresenting himself as a law enforcement officer.”
