Platinum Contributing Member SnowRider Posted February 5, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 5, 2018 Family ties throughout the ad administration ...just like Dump. @racer254 Thiughts.... Emails show Carson family fingerprints at HUD Newly obtained documents show that Carson Jr., who is not a federal employee, continued to play a significant role in his father's agency, including but not limited to organizing Carson's 2017 "listening tour" in Baltimore. Yet department lawyers told the secretary directly last summer that Carson Jr.'s involvement could violate federal ethics rules or give the appearance that the secretary was using his office for his son's private gain. The emails also suggest that Candy Carson, Ben Carson's wife, pushed for her son to meet with at least one Cabinet-level official. In May 2017, Sheila Greenwood, Carson's chief of staff, reached out to another HUD staffer regarding a meeting between Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao and Carson Jr., a meeting suggested by Candy Carson. Greenwood gave the HUD staffer the email address of Chao's chief of staff, saying that the person "would be able to connect BJ and the Secretary should you choose to pursue." The exchange appeared to give Carson Jr.'s access to a top-level official whose agency oversees an area relevant to his business interests. It is unclear whether Carson Jr. contacted Chao. https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/02/politics/ben-carson-family-hud/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtssrx Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Ya he shouldn’t be doing this. But Snowrider you spent the last several years saying the pay for play scams the Clintons ran when Hillary was Secretary of State were okay. Don’t you think you’re being a hypocrite here?
