ICE chief of staff resigns amid misconduct claims - Yahoo! News

Surprised that some of you conservative folks are not all over this! This was a senior Obama admin appointee. Certainly sounds like this woman should have never been placed into an influential bureaucratic position.

Perhaps because none of this is a surprise, except that this person is attempting to take the heat off of Napolitano, who should be the one resigning. Course, the way it works is just to throw somebody else under the bus, and carry on as usual.
If they settle this case, the money should come out of Barr's pay.
This entire administration is sleazy.

Obumpkins judgement is terrible. Look at all the people he hung with throughout his life.

Judging from some of the comments on a couple of sites, apparently he's a "wuzzy" for not accommodating her and reporting her. Geezzz, when it's a woman who complains of sexual harrassment it seems to be a totally different situation. I guess she's just a "victim" of male bitterness because he was passed over for a promotion.

How can Barr make such blatant statements/proposals unless she's gotten away with it in the past? I wonder how many did accommodate her? I wonder how many didn't? Knowing that Napolitano has Barr's back covered, who would take the chance of reporting it or stepping forward to admit that they did or didn't? It's no secret that the administration protects it's own and that will prevent anyone else coming forward. Barr may be out, but Napolitano will still be in, and she would probably make sure that anyone who had anything to do with bringing Barr down will go down as well. (no pun intended)

I read one comment by a guy who said that when he was in college with Barr she offered up her "services" to him and a friend of his.

Barr should have kept her mouth shut (in more ways than one).

I'm sure one of the big investment banks will come calling for her services.
