Linda McMahon, the head of the Small Business Administration, is planning to announce as soon as Friday that shes stepping down, according to three people familiar with the matter.
McMahon is expected to rejoin the private sector. Her exact plans are unclear, but one of the people said the wealthy business mogul intends to play a fundraising role for President Donald Trumps 2020 re-election campaign. She was expected to join the president at Mar-a-Lago, his private Florida club, this weekend.
Trump administration officials have long seen McMahon as a leading contender to replace Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, who has repeatedly angered the president, when he eventually steps down. Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney has also been eyeing the Commerce job and McMahons exit better positions him to replace Ross.
White House and SBA spokespeople did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

And I think Carson claimed he would "leave" at the end of term, although the initial reports suggested it was imminent. DeVos is still at Education although Ross is gone from State though - I think Pompeo is doing that job. And Mad Dog left and there is an acting in at DOD.
