New York Times best-selling author of “American Sniper” Scott McEwen joined us to discuss Ryan Zinke, the co-author, and subject of his latest book “American Commander.”
McEwin teamed with Zinke — a former SEAL Team Six Commander and the only US Navy SEAL in Congress — to write a book about the now-politician’s life.
Zinke is also Donald Trump’s pick for Secretary of the Interior.
Zinke’s military career began in 1985 when he graduated from Officer Candidate School and attended SEAL training (BUDS class 136). He was first assigned to SEAL Team One in Coronado, California, then was later selected for SEAL Team Six where he was a Team Leader and a commander.

This is a great pick, a VET and from Montana, who better for Interior. Mattis at Defense, Sessions as AG, Perry at Energy and the icing on the cake is Pruitt at EPA.
Trump really surprised me with these and credit is due here.
*Haley and Devos get an honorable mention, from me, also.
*most of the rest suck.
