Answer:

The Teapot Dome Scandal was the corruption scandal that plagued the Harding Administration.

Explanation:

The Secretary of the Interior was giving away oil drilling sites that were being held as Naval reserves (to ensure adequate fuel for Naval ships) in the Dakotas without a competitive bidding process in return for bribes. The impact on the American public was a loss of faith in their Government as Secretary Fall was the first Cabinet member to go to prison.
