Mick Mulvaney confronted by Democrat over frosted glass on office windows
The Washington Times ^ | April 11, 2018 | Stephen Dinan

Acting consumer protection chief Mick Mulvaney on Wednesday defended the decision to put frosted glass on his office at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau against accusations that it sent the wrong message about transparency.

Rep. Keith Ellison, Minnesota Democrat, confronted Mr. Mulvaney, a former member of Congress who is now the White House budget chief and the acting consumer chief, about the office during a hearing on Capitol Hill.

Mr. Ellison displayed a photo of the office with the frosted glass.

“You are the champion of transparency, right?” he said. “And yet you have obscured yourself, physically. And I find that to be ironic, sir.”

This is an example of the depth of stupidity and complaining that the Democrat Party has been reduced to.

And that’s good, no?

(Though they’ve been good for a long time at stupidity and complaining.)

I totally get it, frosted glass to cut down on distractions as people pass by vs the cube farm mentality. Yet Mssr Ellison probably doesn’t want you to have any privacy while your going about yur business if ya get my drift, so at least he is consistent...

Solution? Get rid of the funding for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau .

That will be $100. Thank you.

These people (Democrats) are blanking idiots. This is all they have? How many of them have blinds or curtains on their widows at their office or home? Not to mention that transparency should be limited in government executive offices to prevent access from parabolic microphones, video surveillance leading to lip reading leaks etc. from foreign enemies that we seem to let in without restrictions.

I would have answered, “You find my actions ironic and I find your “question” silly.

Keith Ellison is just painful. Complete waste of space. Democrats should be completely ashamed.

Consistent with Democrat socialist/communist methodology - they want to keep tabs on everything you do and thus control you more.

How amusing to hear that Keith Ellison, who has worked assiduously to hide his own enthusiastic involvement with and support of the Nation of Islam and its hate-filled ideology, is complaining about 'transparency'.

Anti-American Keith Ellison has some nerve accusing anyone of anything. Guy should be in prison as an enemy of the US rather than a member of congress. But then he is a Dem so it is ok.
