"The decision was made by a “career staffer” who selected the company, Sebree and Associates, which is based in Mr. Carson’s longtime hometown, Baltimore, from a list of preapproved federal contractors, Mr. Williams said.

Neither Mr. Carson nor his wife — who expressed a strong interest in sprucing up the drab, wood-paneled, 1960s-era secretary’s suite, according to several current and former department staff members — requested that the 50-year-old table be replaced, Mr. Williams said."



the headline and intro to the article make it sound like Mr. Carson personally bought a new table that he picked out regardless of the price, but it does not appear that is the case, and now hasn't he cancelled the order? Where's the issue here?

I understand the as the head of the department Mr. Carson is ultimately responsible, right? Is that the issue?


No, the issue is that Dr. Carson is in the Trump admin.

These loons want as many “trophy scalps” as they can gather.

Cuz Trump.

Who are you calling a loon? Me (that'll likely get you warning points) or the right's poster boy Gowdy who's looking into expenses at HUD?


Term of endearment.

No one in particular, just the leftist loons that are wishing ill on anyone Trump related. Same people popping corks when President Reagan passed away.

Nut jobs, is that better?

Seems like it hit pretty close to home, though. Lol

lol... not having read the articles, but posting other "fake news" sites to bolster a "fake news" site doesn't do anything.

Given what's occurred since the election, nothing can be trusted coming from the MSM. They just grab a headline and run with it. Most times it comes to nothing or boomerangs back. You literally can not trust anything. It's sad, but they did it to themselves.
