Michelle Obama, her daughters and her mother plan a week-long solo visit to China this month that includes meetings with China's first lady and high school and university students - and that will likely cost U.S. taxpayers millions of dollars.

President Obama and his family have come under heavy scrutiny for the unprecedented high travel costs during his time in office - and a week-long trip to China for four members of the First Family, members of the Secret Service and other members of the White House staff will likely cost several millions of dollars.

The president's pricey travels have become so controversial that Judicial Watch was forced to sue the Secret Service and Defense Department to get them to turn over records on the amount of taxpayer money used to fly the First Family all over the world - in many cases for vacations or fundraisers - over the last two years of his administration

I wonder if she will use Hillary's pricey gold bathroom on wheels that she draggeed around China on her visite because Hill didn't want to use the Chinese 'facilities'? I wonder whatever happened to that?

Isn’t there any sort of approval process for travel???

Does the ptresident have sole control over his expenses with no oversight?

Is there no budget?

And saving the best for last - Michelle's mom rides shotgun.

from the article: ‘Mrs. Obama grew up in a poor Chicago family, but earned degrees from two of America’s best universities.’

She did NOT ‘grow up poor’! She grew up the daughter of a political crony of the Chicago machine. She was solidly middle class. She was no poorer than any other son or daughter of young parents who where working and moving towards middle class.

She never missed a meal and her substantial backside stands as proof to that!

Is there no budget?

The GOP controls the purse strings in the House, so, no, there is no oversight or budget.

LOL. It must be pretty bad when inanimate objects refuse to take her crap.

[Sgt_Schultze]

If it’s Spring Break, it must be time for “important” international travel by the president’s wife (and children)

[Slyfox]

Them Obama girls sure do get a lot time off from school.

Taste, sophistication and understated elegance are certainly unheard of with these guys!
