President Donald Trump and his top aides are fuming over Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price’s use of expensive private jets, with some advisers privately calling for Price’s ouster.

Trump rebuked Price in sharp terms Wednesday but declined to bat down speculation that the HHS chief could be fired for his lavish spending of taxpayer dollars.

“We’ll see,” the president told reporters when asked whether Price would stay in his job.

Fuming is less than furious so this should be no bigly deal.

If anyone really gave a shit about this they wouldn't call for his ouster. They would have him pay the taxpayers back with his salary. These bleep Secretaries make upwards of $205K.

I wonder what the conservative who don't condemn this would have said had Kathleen Sebelius chartered these flights during her first year as the Obama Administration's Secretary of HHS?  I'll condemn the waste of taxpayer money whether it's done by a Republican or a Democrat.
I adore facts and data and abhor lies and liars.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Trump fuming over Price's charter flights

‘I'm going to look at it. I am not happy about it, and I let him know it,’ the president says of the HHS secretary using taxpayer money to fund private jet travel.

Gee, who saw that coming?  The only, and I mean the only good thing to come from Price being named HHS Secretary is that he is no longer my Congressman any more.  What a dirt bag.  He was nothing more than a proxy vote for John Boehner.  I hope Trump fires him.  Maybe then we can get an HHS Secretary who will actually do something about getting rid of Obamacare.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

Actually I think he should pay it back AND get fired. How can anyone pretend to care about "draining the swamp" while tolerating this kind of abuse of power?
