“Trump’s gang of imitation moguls seems to have forgotten that it was supposed to be working for the “forgotten Americans.” It’s hard to make that claim when you use a private jet 24 times, as Price did, according to Politico. This cost a total of $300,000, and we paid for it.”
“We recently learned that Mnuchin wanted to use a government airplane to shuttle him and his wife Louise Linton around Europe during their honeymoon. This would cost taxpayers $25,000 per hour. Some sane person denied the request, but months later, Mnuchin and Linton managed to finagle a government jet to view the solar eclipse in Lexington, Kentucky. "
“DeVos, the Education Secretary, is a billionaire who uses her own private jet. That’s progress on the ethical front, I suppose. But the U.S. Marshals who provide her constant protection send their bill to the same Americans who are paying for Price, Pruitt and Mnuchin to live out their fabulous fantasies of federal employment. So far, protecting Betsy DeVos has cost Americans $8 million.”
“That sum, already enormous, seems even greater when you consider all the Republican preaching about fiscal responsibility. Trump’s budget chief, Mick Mulvaney, wanted Meals-on-Wheels eliminated. We don’t have money for health care, we certainly don’t have money for foreign aid or public housing. That would make us socialists. But, my God, we can’t have Tom Price taking a train Philadelphia!”
