Trump Official Faces Backlash for Promoting Fashion Side Hustle Amid Federal Layoffs 👗

This video is uploaded from Frame.ioMcLaurine Pinover, Trump’s pick for Head of Communications at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), is facing backlash after reports revealed she used her government office to promote a fashion side hustle while overseeing mass layoffs. According to The Independent, while OPM was requiring federal employees to justify their jobs or face termination, Pinover was posting influencer content from her office, directing followers to a website where she could earn commissions on clothing sales.<br /><br />CNN reports that she shared at least a dozen videos, including one where she blew a kiss to the camera with the caption “work look” and linked to a site selling her $475 purple skirt—all on the same day OPM pushed for swift firings of underperforming workers.Now, Watchdog groups argue that Pinover’s actions may violate federal regulations, which prohibit employees from using public resources for personal gain.<br /><br />Donald K. Sherman, chief counsel for Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, called it “highly problematic” that while government workers were losing their jobs, someone at the agency enforcing those layoffs was using her position for personal benefit. CNN states Pinover deleted her account minutes after being contacted for comment. <br /><br />Critics on social media are calling for her to be fired, pointing out the hypocrisy of pushing for efficiency reforms while engaging in questionable personal activities at work.
