Presidential Corruption Matters - An incomplete list

As the President plays musical chairs with his staff, news of administration corruption gets lost in the shuffle.   Just so we don't forget, here is an off-the-cuff initial list of corruptions, some of it penny ante some of it massive, reported just in the last couple weeks (more to remember, more to come, more to be developed, feel free to add your own):

  • John McEntee, Trump’s personal assistant, fired for “serious financial crimes.”  He was escorted out of the WH without being allowed to grab his coat, but don't worry about him, he was immediately hired by the Trump 2020 campaign.
  • Tom Price, former HHS Secretary, forced to resign over half a million dollars in travel expenses.
  •  Ryan Zinke, Interior Secretary, excessive travel expenses and $139,000 to replace 3 doors (but they open and close really well).
  • Scott Pruitt, EPA, also huge bills for personal travel, insisting he needed the extra security of first class travel because someone once shouted something insulting at him in coach…(insert snowflake comment here).  Also a $43,000 ‘cone of silence’ so nobody can overhear him eliminating environmental regulation…
  • Steve Mnuchin, Treasury Secretary, worth $300M, racked up over $1M of taxpayer funded military airplanes to fly him and his wife to their European honeymoon among other travels.
  • Ben Carson, HUD, $31,000 dining room table he lied knowing about (but massive cuts for poor people are necessary).
  • Wilbur Ross, Commerce Secretary, richest man in the Cabinet.  His holdings are starting to look like massive conflicts of interest, with the Russian holdings starting to look suspicious, so this one is a stay tuned.
  • Donald Trump, President, are Emoluments even a thing?  Foreign governments are routinely spending large sums at Trump hotels to curry favor.  God only knows what’s happening at the foreign properties.  The VSG continues to do nearly weekly promotional appearances at his properties, charging for access to him and pocketing the money.  This week we learned that the Defense Department spent $140,000 at Trump properties in the first few months, on meals and lodging.  Presidential seal is being used to sell branded merchandise.
  • Don Jr, supposedly not in the administration, travelling to India selling condos and foreign policy all in one.
  • Ivanka Trump, WH something or other, is receiving more than $1M per year from projects with state-owned companies around the world, even as she works in the WH without proper clearance and travels the globe as a representative of the U.S. Government.
  • Jared Kushner, too many WH assignments to list, is involved in too much corruption to list.  The biggest we’ve learned so far is he secured loans for himself and his family in excess of half a billion dollars after meetings in the WH about possible infrastructure projects. The stay tuned story is the suspicion that Kushner pressured the government of Qatar to bail out his family debt and changed American foreign policy to punish the Qataris when they didn’t come across. 

In any organization, the tone is set at the top.

As far as flight expenses, it's bullshit. Some officials need more custom transportation. Mr Tom Price didn't rip anybody off, these transportation expenses were the same for the previous President.

Whole lotta opinion and speculation in this post.

In short, it's bullshit and conjecture.

I didn't vote for Hilary and Bernie wasn't running. The idiot candidate from New Mexico can't read a map.

This thread needs to be drug out into the deepest of the Pacific and drowned.

Screw partisan politics, this is garbage fueled by MSM.

I've seen enough, you can get most anybody in any term, but this is bullshit.

Obama set the whole Russian collusion thing to exonerate Clinton in case she won and for it to fall on Trump if Trump won.

Obama is one smart dude.

Pretty much all of it is fact and none of it is opinion or speculation, and no one has ever denied these things happened until you.  Price did rip everybody off.  Was it speculation that forced Price out? 

Btw, Hillary and Bernie have nothing to do with this corruption.  MSM didn't do these things, they just report on them so not sure why they are brought up. 

If you don't mind these things that is fine but they did happen.

“Department of Housing and Urban Development officials spent $31,000 on a new dining room set for Secretary Ben Carson’s office in late 2017 — just as the White House circulated its plans to slash HUD’s programs for the homeless, elderly and poor, according to federal procurement records.”

it is 2018, one year into Trump Time, how do we know what is or is not true? 

It's just not that easy to tell anymore.

I think we need congratulate Putin, mission accomplished. 

I wish we had such an accomplished leader.

Not sure but I love trump

I dont see how anyone can love Trump.

75% of the people that voted for him did so because he was the lesser of 2 evils... Or appeared to be at the time.

My thing is... How can people be ok with someone that lies ALL THE TIME, in the White House.

I dont care about the 10-15 year old pussy grabbing comments or the petty stuff. But the fact he lies ALL the time... AND he demands his staff be more loyal to him than the country.

Trump is a very dangerous person to have as President. The corruption in the WH is going to grow out of control... Because as long as the public doesnt find out about it, hes ok with whoever doing whatever they want to do.

I love Trump because I really do believe in everything he is doing. He's going after illegals Which is great. He's going after the fbi and the bullshit which is great. Yes as a leader of a country I expect loyalty.
