Pretty sure they were ordered to do so; don’t think they make that call.

I hear you. A lot of Leftists tried to make a scandal out of the fact that Trump said he wouldn’t take any salary at all, and then subsequently said he’d take it, but donate it. It’s was mind-boggling to see some conservatives joining the chorus.

Call it a hunch, but I don’t think this story will get wall to wall coverage on the network news tonight.

$78,333.32 not taken and given away.

By informative contrast, how much did just Barry and Moochelle's jet-a-way vacays cost us taxpayers?

Excerpted from IBD (12/15)...

The new expense reports, heavily-redacted allegedly for security reasons, push the total known costs for vacations during Obama's reign to nearly $71 million -- with another full year to go. That's about $10.1 million per year in known expenses.

How many hard working American taxpayers went without important things so this bunch could party hardy?

*** “And a zillion “gooney birds”” ***

Gooney birds are cool, spent 8 hours (at least) sitting in the sand drinking beer watching them and laughing my ass off, it never got old, and they were totally fearless come right up and say HI ... rule was “Don’t Touch them” and that was tough because they would just flat walk all over you.

I could have spent a week there and been entertained by them alone after that the wind would probably change and I’d smell Olongapo and be in a hurry to leave.

Don't you know that Hitler donated his salary to the German national park service? That's what all dictators do when they first come to power. /S

NPS was ready to basically shoot veterans in DC if they tried to access any memorials during the shutdown.

Not sure I understand the logic here.

Plus they have their own budget of funds extorted from taxpayers.

You are lucky to have seen these birds-—I never have.

What’s amazing to me about them——they are gorgeous in flight.
