Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) says that he believes that the President should have a "wide berth" in selecting the officials who serve in his administration but the actions of GSA Administrator Lurita Doan have "stepped over the line," at the News conference to discuss the political misuse of the General Services Administration.
Wyden says that after just one year in her position, Doan has "trampled of 30 years worth of oversight by the Inspector General."
