The list, ping
Remember the good old days when the Republicans were the greedy rich bastards?????
Another Czar! Apparently, these Leftist morons don’t remember what happened to the last REAL Czar! Bring out the National Razor...
Doesn’t this violate like a dozen different White House standards and ethics?
Personally, I see this as milking a couple of folks for a huge sum of money and then turning around to manipulate more folks with the same scheme...it’s kinda like a pyramid scheme in a way.
The curious thing here...since this individual isn’t a member of any department...they can’t put the audit or IG department onto her and ask a bunch of questions. So there is only two methods of finding out if this is illegal...make congress call for an independent counsel or have the president do his job.

Does she work with senator Dodd’s wife?
Thank you2. BTTT!
