House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) spent $2,993 in taxpayer money on flowers between June and October. House Majority Whip James Clyburn has a thing for Chantilly Donuts, spending about $265 at the Virginia shop in the past quarter And Rep. Tim Walz (D-Minn.), a fiscal conservative, decided to give about $2,000 in unused office funds back to the government to help reduce the deficit.
Typical problem that plagues all parts of government from your local council to the highest branches of government. "It's only a few thousand"..... Those few thousands turn into billions. They all think it's monopoly money.
No one should be using taxpayer dollars for things like flowers. She should buy her own if she wants them. But if you think this is a "liberal" thing, you're wrong... you'd know that if you actually read the entire article.
