    Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin, traveling on what he said was an "essential" trip to London and Copenhagen, improperly accepted tickets to the Wimbledon tennis tournament and brought his wife at taxpayer expense, according to an inspector general's report released Wednesday.

    The scathing report says Shulkin and several top staff members made false and misleading statements both to justify the $122,334 trip and to defend it afterward.

    Trump hires only the best people. David Shulkin. Omarosa. General Flynn. Paul Manafort. Rob Porter. Steve Bannon. Ryan Zinke. Scott Pruitt. Tom Price. Anthony Scaramucci. Reince Priebus.

    If it turns out he's part of the swamp then he should go. Regarding the tickets, I'm not sure he did anything wrong, but he should have consulted with someone who's a policy expert on that.

    Do you remember the day you started hating black females who deservedly get fired for manipulating the system (basically stealing) who then attempts to try to beg her way back into her job only to be kicked off White House grounds by security and then goes on a reality show to then bash the people she went begging to?

    Just further proof, which seems to come on a daily basis these days, that the Trump Admin is corrupt to the core.

    They don't choose or get to come on board unless they are. No one with a moral compass or integrity would go near the slime in The White House.

    Yes, there is a bunch of corruption in this administration, but it is bedrocked on lack of professionalism and administrative expertise.

    You are not sure making false and misleading statements is wrong?

    I know you pseudocons are really far around the bend, but holy smokes!

    They are only following the Naked Emperor's example.

    The taxpayers have been paying for this:

    Trump has to visit his properties for tax purposes.

    It's ironic. Spending taxpayer money to save his own money on taxes.
