As I asked in my previous comment, what has happened to the $30 billion approximate that has not been accounted for that fits in the space between what Congress has authorized and what it is reported that PR has actually received. Indeed I would like to know if any of that $30 billion HAS been redirected to our Southern Border. If it has then Trump should stop pushing false figures like $90+ billion.
Yes, there is a lot of corruption in various big cities. I have been observing local govt. in DC for a number of years, and a number of thefts and scams have been caught by the people, the perpetrators arrested, and are now doing time. So one thing I was wondering DD, were you referring to DC federal government, or to DC local government. I think major city scams are caught fairly often as there is a well educated, suspicious group of citizens who try to keep their eyes on this kind of thing. Currently the longest serving Council member, Jack Evans, is in trouble and his been kicked off the Presidency of the Metro (subway) board, and has lost his Chairmanship of the city’s Finance committee. This bit of drama still has more things to happen. If you Google his name, I’m sure there is more detailed information which will give you an idea of the local city corruption. For issues at the Federal level, you could Google, Trump’s DC Hotel problems.
“Gonzalo Tubens: When Trump says it, it’s because he knows and has seen something”
Regarding this quote from the article, it is well known that you have to deal with crime bosses and do other shady things to get any kind of work done in NYC. I’m sure that Trump has seen and knows a lot. Trump has gotten into trouble for failing to pay for a lot of work that was done on his various projects.
Great post!
