Hotel costs for First Lady Michelle Obama to see cultural sites in Venice during the last leg of her trip overseas is costing taxpayers $128,781.
The First Lady left for London and Italy on Monday for her “Let Girls Learn” initiative and anti-obesity campaign Let’s Move. During the trip she will cook with children, visit U.S. service members stationed in Italy, and visit Prince Harry.
“From London, the First Lady will travel to Milan,” according to the White House press office. “As part of her Let’s Move! initiative, the First Lady will lead a Presidential Delegation to the Milan Expo 2015, representing our steadfast commitment to a healthier nation.”
The delegation is entitled “American Food 2.0: United to Feed the Planet.”
“Mrs. Obama and the Delegation will also participate in a cooking activity with children,” the press office said. “In addition to visiting the U.S. Pavilion, the First Lady will meet with Prime Minister Renzi, and tour the Italian Pavilion with Ms. Landini, the Prime Minister’s wife.”

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
That $128,781 also burned more fossil fuels and generated more CO2 than I will in a year.
I just sit here at home day after day and think on the 18 more months this country has to endure this family until it is gone. I really wonder if I am going to live long enough to see that happy day.
If the current posse is replaced by Hillary Clinton, you will refer to this time as “the good old days.”
Actually, as evil as she and the goat and daughter are, I don’t think they are anywhere near the evil that our current Resident represents. They, Clintons, would want to keep the Golden Goose alive. Our current benefactor wants to totally destroy the goose, or convert it to the wisdom of Allah. There is no contest IMO.
I agree with you somewhat. The Clintons would sell the goose for pennies on the dollar. 0bama just wants to kill the goose for its own sake for nothing in return. So it’s the self-interested crooks and the evil destructive dictator.
A hell of a world. Either way, not a result to my liking.
There is meme in there somewhere.
This isn’t nothing...
Just wait to see how much these grifters spend the last 12 months in office...
The party is ending and time to loot will be epic...
Gee, I wonder if she felt ‘comfortable’ in those places.
Did you enjoy the trip? You didn’t send me a postcard! Are you ungrateful? After all I did pay for your trip. If you send it now all is forgiven. You can mail it to my house. I’ll be home because I can’t afford to travel abroad.
What .. no visit to the leaning tower of pizza?
Food snob
How long did it take her to dream up a reason for a trip like that? I’m still waiting for her to visit ALL the national parks in our own country. She said after the election of 2012, that was something she REALLY WANTED TO DO - visit every single one!!! Hmmm - guess she forgot that lie! Wish we could!!!
“”Mrs. Obama and the Delegation””
Are we allowed to know HOW MANY are in the Delegation? How many friends and how many relatives?
Great pic....I can feel the victim’s utter despair in my bones.
No matter the cost, it’s worth it to the American people.
