A major problem in the Harding administration was the Teapot Dome scandal, which involved the secret leasing of federal oil reserves in Teapot Dome, Wyoming, to private oil companies without competitive bidding. This scandal highlighted corruption within the administration and led to investigations that tarnished Harding's legacy. Although Harding himself was not directly implicated, the scandal revealed significant issues of ethics and governance in his administration. Ultimately, it contributed to a broader public disillusionment with the government during the 1920s.
