President Donald Trump is correct to hold federal employees accountable, even as he and his folks make every effort to squirm away from a steady flow of ethical quandaries.

Resolving these issues will take strong leadership, particularly by Senate President Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, who needs to decide if she is siding with the public and the bipartisan majority of lawmakers or with Gov.

If you designed a tax plan intended to enrich President Trump and his family, you could hardly do better than the monster he dropped on Wednesday. Real estate partners could pay the new corporate rate of 15 percent, rather than the top personal rate of 39 percent.
