[quote]Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price resigned Friday, amid controversy over his use of private jets for official and personal business. He promised a day earlier to pay back some of the $400,000 spent on those flights, but the offer came too late for the Trump White House. In a statement released Friday afternoon, the White House said President Donald Trump he intends to designate Don Wright of Virginia to serve as acting secretary, effective at midnight Friday. Wright serves as the deputy assistant secretary for health at HHS and he directs the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. Price, an orthopedic surgeon and former House Budget Committee chairman, was surrounded by controversy since his nomination to the nation’s top health post in January. He made questionable stock trades in health care companies while a member of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee and interceded on behalf of donors with federal agencies. Democrats in the Senate fought his confirmation, charging that he was too ethically challenged to serve as HHS secretary.[/quote] [url]https://khn.org/news/price-resigns-as-hhs-secretary-amid-scandal/[/url]

Dayum, and I didn't even figure his scandal was that bad. Or is this just a good excuse to cash out of a bad situation?
Exit Friday is back baybeee
Hopefully this happens to the others who are spending absurd amounts of money on travel. They've already gone over 1 million dollars in 8 months. I'm not even sure that includes trumps golf trips. Also curious how this will be spun
[QUOTE=Vodkavia;52730280]Can we fire the president for funneling tax payer money into his own resorts next?[/QUOTE] yeah there's just a teeny bit of hypocrisy here :v:
and yet sabotaging obamacare wasn't what brought him down
and people say he was only fired because Trump need a distraction to divert attention from Puerto Rico
