Up in Thomas with the VP News Minute, former Labor Secretary Lori Shavvets-Deremer called out in a watchdog report. Marcella Sanchez has details. The report from the Labor Department's Office of Inspector General details a hostile work environment under former Labor Secretary Lori Shavvets-Deremer. It also includes allegations that she engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a member of her security detail and violated travel regulations by combining personal and official travel. The report also accuses her of violating alcohol policies, having staff perform personal tasks on official time and failing to properly report gifts. The findings are based on interviews with 53 current and former Labor Department staffers and one employee from another federal agency. It also includes a review of more than 500 documents, images and videos. Shavvets-Deremer resigned earlier this year. I'm Marcella Sanchez. And I'm Ben Thomas.
