So nice to have a President with resolve again
- Thread starter DvlDog4WVU
- Start date
They were given back two of these furnishings they moved out of the WH.....point being, items were given to them and they can move those items after term is over
Point is the Clintons gave back about $140,000 worth of items they had NO right to remove from the White House.
Oops, it was the Rose Vowl. My mistake.

So you honestly believe 30,000 worth of furniture is worse than billions in fraudulent expenses and lost revenue? (under Obama's HUD)
You're serious?
The $30,000 worth of furniture never happened. The actual gov.cost for Carsons redo was less than $5,000.
Does a "stimulus" (Obama's plan) work faster than trickle down? When is/are the cutoffs applied?
Like you said if trickle down leads to a bust later...like how much later? And when do we stop counting time for the stimulus' effect? Is it still working? If so, when do we start giving credit for Trump's economy in order to blame him later for trickle down's inevitable downturn?
You don't know that cabinet members don't make decisions about security? All cabinet secretaries have a security detail.
I didn’t say a bust was inevitable. I’d say by the end of his first turn, if the economy is roaring, he gets the credit. I mean, give him credit for the bonuses, the business investment, and the optimism in the market.

This goes well beyond that.
"Pruitt's unprecedented security includes a staff of 20 agents providing round-the-clock coverage, even when he is not on official business. Pruitt has come under scrutiny for taking security on family vacations, frequent trips home to Oklahoma, and to sporting events. The costs have totaled above $2 million, and have included sweeps of his office, biometric locks on his office and first-class airline travel."
This all based on bogus "threats" he has received like a group wanting to disrupt his speech and some guy saying he might leave some old paintchips outside his office. This doesn't even get into the $40k soundproof booth he had installed in his office, illegally, or the sweetheart deal he got on an apartment from a lobbyist.
Just another creature in the Trump Swamp.

Meh...what's a few million lost dollars between us taxpayers? It's only their money we allow them to waste right?
I know, they are practically wiping out entire populations with their murderous rampages.
Well...looks like the EPA Security Detail does not take their orders from John Q Public. Are you privy to the details of the "bogus threats"? Are you a member of his Security Team?
Poor bookkeeping for sure. Do you ANY details of the mistakes? At all? Or did you just read an article that claimed Carson uncovered more Obama theft, and assume its true?Meh...what's a few million lost dollars between us taxpayers? It's only their money we allow them to waste right?
I disagree that the Clintons were deliberately trying to steal possessions that belonged to the WH. I think they were careless in their logistic planning in the move of a mansion. And I think the official WH record of gifts was incorrect.
They waste money we don't have. We're running a 20 Trillion dollar debt in case you haven't noticed...the exact amount of lost dollars uncovered or unaccounted for at this point is rather irrelevant against 20 trillion in unpaid debt.
I know you send in your extra pennies to try and help them out, but have you ever tried to spit into the wind?
Know how useless that is right? Well, despite your noble intentions, sending in your kid's pennies to pay down a 20 Trillion dollar debt is sort of like that.
My solution to HUD's fiscal irresponsibilty would cause you to vomit, not spit.
I never said they deliberately tried to steal. I guess they were just ignorant of the rules.
You can twist things all you want. I was simply saying that your “Carson caught billions of lost money” Bullsh1t is not true. He streamlines HUD, more power to him.
And I send in MY pennies, the rest of my change goes into a jar that I put into my kids college fund every several months. But thanks for disrespecting me none the less.....big man.
Maybe, the official WH record had the furnishings listed as donations to the Clintons themselves, several items actually were. They returned them without any issues. It was a miscommunication, and to make it into more than that is just stupid, imo.
One must first be respectful in order to expect it. Then one must first earn respect in order to receive it.
You are neither respectful nor deserving of anything you have not first offered.
There 'ya go...that's more your speed. The road of respect you demand to travel on has a toll you can't afford.
How is it you require something you are not capable of offering or understanding?
True dat...and since you were so prescient, mellifluous, and offered your respectful advice to me with such alacrity allow me to emulate your stellar example using your words
You're such a fine example of that which you describe.

I assume you are responding to atl. I have him on ignore. I have to admit, it is hilarious to see a post like this that appears to be from nowhere. It’s like “bam!” Out of the blue....fvck you.
LOL!
I always thought mellifluous was in relation to the SOUND of ones tone of voice? Would it apply in the written word?
Gee....Looks like Israeli Intelligence wasn't very impressed with the strike either. Kind of disagree with everyone you said.

Well look at at this way. Assad has basically two options now and he fully understands the consequences of each choice.
Choice 1) Go ahead use those Chemical weapons. See how much longer you can?
Choice 2) Stop using them, stay in power a while longer and hope for some sort of negotiated power sharing with the rebel factions, or at the very least face the Syrian people in a vote to see who they prefer to lead them.
Both of course have risks to his power, but neither is without consequence. It's up to him to decide. He doesn't have any other choices.
