John Hurley

Treasury Undersecretary John Hurley is reportedly stepping down following clashes with Treasury Secretary Scott Besant.

Hurley served as the Trump administration's top sanctions official for terrorism and financial intelligence.

But sources tell Bloomberg there was internal tension over tactics and targets of U.S.

sanctions policy.

Officials are said to be floating Hurley for several ambassador roles now to keep him in the fold.

But his exit is just the latest shakeup in senior ranks at the Treasury Department.

Besson's first chief of staff and his successor both left last year.
