Perry's exit was apparently long planned, but comes as the energy secretary gets further embroiled in the Ukraine scandal

in the wake of the burgeoning Ukraine scandal. The energy secretary had previously denied the rumors, though, telling reporters October 7, “I’m here. I’m serving.” “They’ve been writing the story that I was leaving the Department of Energy for at least nine months now,” Perry. “One of these days they'll probably get it right. But it’s not today. It’s not tomorrow. It’s not next month.

Unlike so many other members of Trump's cabinet, Perry largely managed to avoid scandal during his tenure at the Department of Energy, which began soon after Trump's inauguration in 2017. Despite famously having the agency to be eliminated—and forgetting its name—as a presidential primary candidate, the energy secretary even oversaw the agency's expansion, with thethat the agency's budget was expanded by nearly 25% while Perry was in office. Yet Perry has more recently gotten wrapped up in the Trumpworld drama, becoming one of the White House officials to be embroiled in the ongoing Ukraine saga.
