Back in the day, he was waving and shouting about the obscenity of LOSER 45's conflicts of interest, loud and clear, while everyone else was trying to finesse a "smooth transition of power" -

When the collaborators are nicely tucked away into their new prison cells, I want to see Mr. Shaub return to our government, in any capacity he chooses - he got balls, heart, and integrity to spare!!

All hail Walter Shaub!!

He was fearlessly outspoken from the very beginning. As you mentioned, everyone else was ignoring, making excuses, or ran off in fear, this man stood strong and erect.

That worried me. I followed him on his official Twitter feed, which was fairy active in the beginning, then sadly it tappered off to nil. Thank you for this post, I've added him.

Losing him is a stab through America's heart. But he once said he could get more done on the outside. I sure hope so. He's got my support.
