Secretary of Veterans Affairs David Shulkin is about to take his turn in the spotlight after revelations he and his staff, along with some of their spouses, enjoyed a 10-day European vacation, entirely funded by us hardworking taxpayers.
From the Washington Post:
The 10-day trip was not entirely a vacation. Shulkin was in Europe for meetings with Danish and British officials about veterans’ health issues.
Yet he and his wife spent about half their time sightseeing, including shopping and touring historic sites, according to an itinerary obtained by The Washington Post and confirmed by a U.S. official familiar with their activities.
Wimbledon, a Thames river cruise, Westminster Abbey, London shopping—sounds lovely, darling! Nothing but the best! No, we don’t have enough money for the health care of our veterans, but as Robin Leach would say, these guys are living it up with “champagne wishes and caviar dreams!”
It was quite the travel party.
