When he was nominated by President Donald Trump to serve as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, famed neurosurgeon Ben Carson was subjected to withering criticism from leftist Democrats.
They challenged his credentials for the post, arguing he couldn’t do the job because of his lack of political experience.
In just a matter of a few weeks, Carson has shown he is more than up to the task of managing the massive agency. He ordered an Inspector General (IG) to audit the agency in order to get a real grasp on HUD’s financial condition.
What was uncovered is a shocking amount of waste and financial mismanagement, which Carson has made public. Learn more about the scope of the bookkeeping errors that plague HUD on the next page.
The media silence is deafening. Makes me sick. Now, Trump & crew need to go through every one of these bloated federal agencies, because they are all rotten to the core.
The media was SILENT!!
George H. Pierce: I spent 20 years working on political issues and writing for a small independent newspaper. My work took me pretty deep!y in to the government and I had many allies in the government – so I had access to “insider” information. Trust me – this is NOT “f**e news”! The federal government is bloated and top heavy with these corrupt, useless agencies, who suck in billions in federal funding yet do not actually serve the purposes they were created for. Each one needs to be audited thoroughly. Some need tone dismantled, others – downsized and rebuilt from the ground up. Trumps plan is to kick many of them back to the states, which is exactly what should happen – that way there is 100% more accountability and the public can keep an eye on them. The States can then choose which issues they want to focus on, and citizens can be actively involved, with their representatives in the issues they care about.
I have seen the deepest of the money flow and it is mind- boggling. One tiny example: Medicaid paying $38. for one Ace bandage – that actually cost $2.. This type of billing/spending is par for the course in the federal government – every single item from a box of paperclips, to a toilet, to a chair – billed at astronomically inflated costs.
I am concerned as to why you would ever think this was f**e news? You are seriously uninformed!
Now it is more than apparent why the Democrats are freaking out and want Trump impeached. So all of their filthy corruption will not be exposed.
Most of the federal agencies audit them selves. The fox watching the henhouse syndrome.
Very questionable policies at best.
I call ‘them’ the Obama-Clinton CARTEL, because that is exactly what they are like – those Columbian drug cartels.
Where is the 500 billion that obama said was in the HUD housing. But is not there. Why are all the news papers and news not reporting this. Obama and Hilary are the biggest crooks and liars in American history.
Is there ever any justice?
OBAMA’S crimmal activities had to feed the enemy money
