oanow.com The seven-year plan: Inside the boom of Auburn volleyball JUSTIN LEE jlee@oanow.com 15-19 minutes Akasha Anderson was home near D.C. when she got the call. Her phone had been ringing all day, but this one call stood out in particular. It was June 15, 2020: the first day under new NCAA rules that she and other junior prospects across the country were allowed to be contacted by college coaches. Anderson had been targeted by schools all around the nation. She was a touted talent, coveted by programs in volleyball hotspots coast to coast, and she was on her way to soon winning Gatorade Player of the Year in Virginia. But this was the first time she got a call from Auburn. Auburn? Across the country, in a Chicago suburb, Sarah Morton was juggling calls when the same number lit up her phone. Auburn? Outside Kansas City, Bel Zimmerman got the same curious call. Auburn? Auburn? People are also reading… Fast forward to today and Auburn — yes, Auburn — is 17-2 on the season, undefeated at home, and 6-2 in the SEC near the top of the league standings. Anderson has fired 281 kills, good for top 10 in the SEC; Morton has picked up 311 digs, good for third-best per-set in the conference; Zimmerman says it’s “so fun,” between exciting wins. “We really are a family here.” Auburn is putting together a breakthrough season with six freshmen starting, who were all part of Brent Crouch’s first complete signing class as head coach at Auburn. It was Crouch on the other end of all those phone calls on the first day of the contact period, the man who’d turned heads by walking away from the head coaching job at USC to go to afterthought Auburn — and all of those conversations could’ve started the same way: ‘I just left USC to coach at Auburn. Have you ever thought about playing volleyball at Auburn before?’ If that’s how he really opened a call, the players would’ve answered simply, and almost invariably, ‘No I haven’t.’ But there was more to the pitch. There are resources at Auburn, Crouch could explain, amid the riches of the SEC. It’s a sleeping giant. There are facilities here, there’s opportunity here, and there’s a certain small-town charm. And there’s a plan. Crouch had a plan. Crouch had only been on campus for a few months and, at the time in June 2020, COVID-19 had shut the world down, but Crouch had devised and mapped out a seven-year plan for Auburn volleyball. It started with this particular recruiting class, and it ended with the Tigers competing for the national championship.

I am not sure i like the music but this is pretty cool.

Bryan Harsin: Success for Auburn ‘a lot closer than what it seems’ Published: Oct. 18, 2022, 10:01 a.m. 5-7 minutes There was a moment Saturday in Oxford, Miss., when it seemed as things could truly go sideways for Auburn in what has already been a frustrating season. On the second play of the second quarter, Ole Miss running back Zach Evans punched in a touchdown from 3 yards out. It was Ole Miss’ second touchdown off an Auburn turnover early in the game, and it put the Rebels in front 21-0 just under 16 minutes into the teams’ Week 7 matchup. Read more Auburn football: Business as usual for Bryan Harsin on bye week despite swirling job rumors Statistically speaking: Auburn’s turnover problem hits rock bottom Kickoff time, TV network set for Auburn vs. Arkansas Things were getting out of hand, and a rout felt entirely possible, given the Rebels’ proclivity for points and the Tigers’ overall struggles against Power 5 opponents. Except that rout never came, and Auburn didn’t fold—even as it eventually lost its third straight game, 48-34. “It’s just about pride,” Auburn linebacker and team captain Owen Pappoe said. “You can’t lay down just because you’re down 21. You’re not playing a video game; that’s when people pass the sticks, but nah, we ain’t passing the sticks, man. We’re going to keep fighting until the end.” That was perhaps the biggest takeaway from this Auburn team in its latest setback. After falling behind by three scores early, the Tigers clawed their way back into the game. They cut the Rebels’ lead to four early in the third quarter after Tank Bigsby’s 50-yard touchdown run on the opening possession of the second half, and they remained within striking distance for the rest of the game. They just couldn’t fully close that gap and get over the hump while dropping falling to 3-4 on the year, 1-3 in SEC play and 3-9 in their last 12 games under coach Bryan Harsin. “Those guys know we’re a lot closer than what it seems,” Harsin said. “And so, a few things here and there. That’s what changes the game. But that’s football as well. And the reality of it is we didn’t win. Ole Miss did. They did it better than we did today. So, what we have to do is go back and figure out what we can control and how we’re going to improve and get better and what we can do going into the next game to find a way to win. “But those guys will fight. And they want to win. And they’re not going to throw in the towel. That’s one of the things, they won’t do that.” That resiliency is holding Auburn together throughout this difficult stretch as the team continues to try to find a winning formula. A lesser team surely would have folded under the circumstances, but Auburn showed fight at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, finally rediscovering its ground game even as its run defense put forth a historically bad performance. The Tigers have struggled in some capacity against each of its five Power 5 opponents this season, with the lone win coming in its SEC opener against Missouri — an overtime escape in which Missouri fumbled away the winning touchdown just shy of the goal line in overtime. Better lucky than good, the saying goes, but Auburn wants to get to good enough — finding a balance of success on offense and defense to overcome its deficiencies — and the Tigers feel like they’re on the precipice of getting to that point. “I think we’re damn close, man,” Pappoe said. “But we just can’t keep — it’s, like, once we fix one thing we’ve messed up on, it’s always something else, you know? Once we get to a point where it’s not always something else, it’s lights out.” That’s what Auburn hopes to figure out during the bye week, which comes at a welcome time for the program. The Tigers are beat up physically and have endured an emotional toll over the last seven weeks, with on-field struggles contributing to a buildup of outside noise pertaining to the future of the program and, specifically, the future of Harsin as its head coach. The week away from competition will provide an opportunity to reset, recover and refocus as the team tries to iron out the finer details that have hindered its success. Correcting those issues, be it ball security, gap integrity, pass protection or any other aspect of the game the team has been inconsistent in, will be crucial if the Tigers plan to turn things around over the final five games of the regular season. “We can salvage the season,” edge and team captain Derick Hall said. “The season isn’t over…. We still have a nine-win season if we win out. The season isn’t over. I think that’s the biggest point of focus, to go in and correct a lot of things we need to see.” While Harsin believes his team is inching toward pulling it all together, he acknowledges the Tigers aren’t there just yet. The results speak for themselves. So long as they keep fighting, he’s confident they’ll have a chance to get to where they want to be. “Obviously, they want to find a way to win,” Harsin said. “We all want to find a way to win…. That’s the message, right? We’re not there yet. It’s not showing up on the field, in the W’s that we want, but we are improving in some areas. We have got to continue that.” Tom Green is an Auburn beat reporter for Alabama Media Group. Follow him on Twitter @Tomas_Verde.

247sports.com Taking a look at Auburn's defensive rotation through seven games, potential for 2023 Jason Caldwell 4-5 minutes AUBURN, Alabama–Through seven football games this season the Auburn Tigers find themselves at 3-4 overall and 1-3 in SEC play following losses to LSU, Georgia and Ole Miss the last three weeks. With five games left in the regular season we have a pretty good idea of how this roster has shaped up as well as what the Tigers could look like next season based on how the playing rotation has gone down on offense and defense. Defensively, Auburn still has a very talented rotation with Derick Hall and Dylan Brooks both 4-star prospects at the edge position along with Western Kentucky transfer Marcus Bragg. On the defensive line, Colby Wooden was a 4-star prospect along with Oregon transfer Jayson Jones. Another 4-star prospect, Zykeivous Walker, appears headed for a redshirt year after dealing with some injuries early in the 2022 season. Auburn’s only 5-star prospect is Owen Pappoe. The senior linebacker has been a starter since his freshman year. He’s joined in the playing rotation by a pair of 4-star prospects, Wesley Steiner and Cam Riley. Another 4-star linebacker, Eugene Asante, is redshirting after not getting into the rotation following a transfer from North Carolina. True freshman Robert Woodyard is another 4-star, but has yet to see playing time despite being on the travel roster. In the secondary the Tigers feature a trio of 4-star prospects in the playing rotation led by junior cornerbacks Jaylin Simpson and Keionte Scott along with junior safety Zion Puckett. True freshman J.D. Rhym has seen some playing time as well, but didn’t see action against Ole Miss last weekend. That gives Auburn a total of 11 5-star and 4-star prospects in the playing rotation on defense this season, but now the question is what will the group look like next season? There are several players who are definitely done after this season for Auburn, including defensive linemen Marquis Burks and Memphis transfer Morris Joseph along with Bragg. The expectations are that both Hall and Wooden will also be gone after the 2022 season. Even though Eku Leota has a season available to him if he wants to return next year, he’s another player who could also be gone from the front seven and he already has a degree in hand. With Pappoe another player who has a year available, but almost certain to be gone, that’s a big chunk of Auburn’s experience that will likely be missing from the front seven on defense. In the secondary Nehemiah Pritchett is the lone senior of the group, but both Simpson and Scott could be potential draft guys along with Oregon transfer DJ James. If the trio all return, that would give the Tigers a solid group to build around in the secondary along with Puckett, Donovan Kaufman and Cayden Bridges. 33COMMENTS What does that mean for Auburn in the short term? It means help is needed in this recruiting class as well as in the transfer portal. Best-case scenario likely means replacing your top three players at the edge position, your best defensive tackle, two reserves at the position, and your top linebacker from a defense that is already struggling to slow the running game. That’s not a great recipe for success heading into 2023. While Auburn’s offensive line is going to need some serious help from the transfer portal heading into next season, the same is true of the front seven on defense if the Tigers hope to make strides on that side of the ball. Adding quality players from the high school ranks is big and Auburn has a chance to have a good group up front, but finding guys ready to hit the ground running is going to be a must. ">247Sports

Auburn football's bye week: Five questions, five stats at the halfway point of the season Five questions, five interesting stats for Auburn entering the bye week. Lance Dawe 18 hours ago Auburn enters the bye week in desperate need of answering a few questions, healing a few injuries, and just overall reevaluation. If Harsin is going to save his job, he's got some serious adjusting to do. Or none, considering the offensive scheme just hasn't tried to change through seven games. Not really much Auburn could do to change given the situation across the offensive line. Here are five questions and five important statistics to keep in mind as the bye week rolls on. Is this Robby Ashford's team for the rest of the season? Austin Perryman/AU Athletics Since taking over the starting job against Missouri, Ashford is completing 46.8% of his passes and has thrown three touchdowns to three interceptions (while adding three TDs on the ground). Although many are frustrated with Ashford's extreme turnover issues and inaccuracy, there are a couple of reasons to believe he remains the primary signal caller through the end of the season. Ashford is significantly more explosive than TJ Finley. Robby is third in the SEC in yards per completion and has been the better downfield passer of the two. Finley's lack of mobility also hinders the offense, especially considering the offensive line's inability to pass block. Even if TJ returns from his shoulder injury fully healthy next week, it could still be the Robby Ashford show from here on out. Turnover woes Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports Here's a stat that has been floating around the Twittersphere for quite some time: Auburn is now dead last in FBS (131st) in turnover margin, sitting at -11. They're dead last in fumbles and last in the SEC in interceptions thrown. For all of the talk about Harsin being a quarterback developer this offseason, it's not been even a underneath average product that they've put on the field - it has been downright terrible. If the Tigers even cut the margin in half (which would still put them at last in the SEC), it's almost certain that Auburn would have won at least one more game thus far. Can the running game truly improve? Todd Van Emst/AU Athletics The rushing attack popped off for over 300 yards against the Rebels last Saturday after being inept against Power Five schools so far this season. Because of the initially slow (and now sharp) decline in the trenches over the last several years, it's hard to sit here and predict that because of one performance, the team is all of the sudden going to find a spark within their offense that they didn't know they had. Bigsby being able to just get to the second level against any defense is huge, but keep in mind Auburn still has four more SEC games left on the slate. No amount of statistical data in Auburn's favor can accurately predict a positive game moving forward because the Tigers have been bad against everybody. Well, until last week. Explosive plays negated by bad offensive line play Eric Starling/Auburn Daily It's been feast or famine for the Tigers' offense. Auburn is top five in the SEC in plays of 30+, 40+, and 50+ yards, yet is 10th in the league in total yards per game. There's not much else to say here other than the extremely lackluster offensive line performance has killed the Tigers' ability to do just about anything consistently on offense. A lot of third down and long situations where Ashford is asked to just do something (more often than not, he hasn't) which results in a boom or bust offense. An interesting correlation: Auburn ranks 58th out of the 64 Power Five teams in passing yards per game. Of the six schools underneath the Tigers, two of them have already fired their head coach (Colorado, Georgia Tech) and the other four are a combined 9-11 against FBS competition (Iowa, Kansas State, Rutgers and Vanderbilt). So, if you can't throw the ball, your coach is either getting fired or you just are bad (excluding Kansas State, we love the Wildcats) One would think that this is not company Auburn wants to be in (again, excluding Kansas State, who is a glorified military academy) . Is bowl eligibility possible? Eric Starling/Auburn Daily Here are the Tigers' final five games and what ESPN's FPI says about the Auburn's odds: Vs Arkansas (55.4% chance to win) At Mississippi State (20.3% chance to win) Vs Texas A&M (45.1% chance to win) Vs Western Kentucky (58.7% chance to win...!!!) At Alabama (4.0% chance to win) If the FPI gets it right, Auburn would finish with a 5-7 record. An upset against MSU, A&M or Alabama would be needed in order for Auburn to make a bowl game (while not messing up against Arkansas or WKU). Oscar Chapman is a weapon © Jake Crandall / USA TODAY NETWORK Auburn is 2nd in the SEC in total punting yards. Punter Oscar Chapman should at the very least be in contention for the Ray Guy Award (he is on the watch list) and will likely end up being an All-SEC selection at the end of the season. His ability to control the field after the Tigers stall on offense has been valuable. Why is Auburn's rush defense so bad? Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports The Tigers just haven't been plugging gaps. They've been missing assignments all season long, and it doesn't look like things are going to get any better - the linebacking core has been awful up until this point in the year, and what was once thought to be one of the better defensive lines in the league has just sort of been average at best. It feels like a coaching issue more than anything, considering the Tigers still have a decent amount of talent on that side of the ball. I find it hard to believe that it's mostly a talent issue because it would mean that Auburn has just simply missed on the majority of their four-star talent types. All of these missed tackles are just chock up to a lack of talent...? That's really hard to believe. Weird how the dam seems to have burst after the Penn State game. A strong pass defense Todd Van Emst / AU Athletics Despite being awful in the front seven against the run, Auburn has been decent against the pass thus far. The Tigers rank 20th nationally in passing yards per game. Of course, opponents haven't really felt the need to throw against Auburn this season (only 28.6 pass attempts per game) because of how bad the run defense has been, but overall there haven't been as many defensive breakdowns as there were last year. When will Bryan Harsin be let go? Todd Van Emst/AU Athletics According to reports, Harsin will likely be retained until either: a) An athletic director is hired (which could happen this week) b) The end of the season, regardless of whether or not there is an AD in place It feels like it's all but been decided that Auburn will be moving on without him one way or another before 2023. Even if the Tigers find a way to finish 7-5, there are several signs pointing towards this being a poorly operated team, so even if that mark is reached it still feels like he will be out. Auburn can't stay on the field Eric Starling/Auburn Daily Ahh yes, third down. The Tigers have faced 96 of them this year (third-most in the SEC). They've converted 33.3% of them. That's last in the league and eighth-worst among Power Five schools. The list of schools that are worse? Virginia Tech, Northwestern, Kansas State, Colorado, Rutgers, Boston College, Georgia Tech, and Iowa. Really, really bad company to be in.

An Auburn player's account of the arguments on the sideline against Ole Miss Zac Blackerby 2-3 minutes It was a weird scene on Saturday. Auburn's offense took a few drives to get going against Ole Miss and once it found the endzone, an argument broke out between Auburn quarterback Robby Ashford and running back Tank Bigsby. Not the type of reaction that you would typically see after a score. Auburn captain and tight end John Samuel Shenker chimed in on it during an appearance on the Locked On Auburn podcast. "It wasn’t a huge deal. It was just miscommunication," Shenker said. "We were excited, we had just scored. We’re trying to get back into the ball game. So guys came over there excited and then some guys were just talking about staying focused, and I think it got misconstrued by what some of us meant by that. Tempers were high, we were really locked in and focused… I just think it got a little blown out of proportion, which that happens on TV and things like that. But no, nothing came of it. It was all good afterward." The ESPN cameras also followed Ashford as he looked to be told that he was coming out of the game. Several fans reacted to him being upset by the news. Shenker discussed this as well. "I didn’t see most of the reactions until after the game on Instagram," Shenker said. "When TJ came in, obviously I didn’t get to see his reaction until later… Obviously, the guy is a competitor, he wants to play. But when things happen you can’t - especially when TVs are all over the place, that’s what they're going to look for to create stories. Yes, I love the competitive spirit, but there’s a fine line there. He’ll learn that as he gets older and plays more games on how to show that emotion in certain situations when things happen."

4-star Tahaad Pettiford breaks down Auburn official, talks future visits Jamie Shaw 4-5 minutes Tahaad Pettiford is the No. 22 player in the 2024 On3 Consensus. Playing up in age group, the 6-foot-0 point guard averaged 13.3 points with the New Heights Lightning organization on Nike’s EYBL 17u Circuit. “I’m a short guard who can get to the rim and finish above the rim,” Pettiford told On3. “I like to get up the floor and go; I can get a stop when my team needs one, and like to get my teammates involved. I’ve recently started watching a lot of De’Aaron Fox. I just love the way he knows how to create space and use his body. It creates space for an open shot, and also, you know if they overplay him, he knows how to just one move get by them.” The four-star was a recent invitee to the USA Basketball Junior National Team October Minicamp, where On3 caught up with Tahaad Pettiford to talk about his recruitment. “I just took my first official visit to Auburn,” Pettiford said. “I don’t have any other visits set up yet, but I’m trying to set something up with Kentucky, Kansas, Tennessee, and probably UCLA.” Pettiford talks recruitment Auburn: “First of all, I didn’t even know it was in Alabama; I thought it was in Atlanta. It’s a small town, but everybody’s all about the school and the players. Everybody showed love for the basketball team, for all the sports, really. They’re so supportive. Everybody there wants to see you strive and be the best player you can be. “They like that I’m a fast point guard; that I like to get up the floor and go, and also that I like to play defense. I’m quick, so they like to get stops and let their players get up and go. They don’t like to run sets, and he said I remind him a lot of how they like to play. Kentucky: “You know, it’s Coach Cal (John Calipari). So, for him to call me a lot, text me, and make sure I’m good, he’s one of the best coaches to ever do it. He’s always checking up on me and telling me how to improve my game so he can see me playing for him in a few years.” UCLA: “It’s Coach (Darren) Savino, you know, they show a lot of love, too, every day. They always check in to make sure my family and I are good. Coach also wants to see me strive and help me be the best that I can be.” Kansas: “I actually spoke to them recently, and they told me they like how I can score the ball and also how I can play defense. They said they think my game could translate into how they play. Tennessee: “I don’t really speak to Tennessee as much, but when I do speak to them, they tell me that they just love the way how I get players involved and that’s what they need.” In Pettiford’s words “We’re trying to work things out before the season,” Pettiford said. “I will probably get at least one more visit in before the season. And then, let everything sit down and get back to it next summer. Right now, I’m probably looking to commit before next school year. “I’m looking for a school where I can play my game, but also have players around me that want to be great, and I want to get to work with them. I like to get out and go, run a few sets once in a while, but, you know, I like to get out and go. But also, I want to go to a school that’s going to help me become the best player I can be and take care of me and my family. That’s all I really hear.” Scouting report Tahaad Pettiford is a quick-on-quick point guard. He has a crafty, but explosive handle that gets him to his spots on the floor. He does not dance with the ball, it is one or two dribbles and go. The 6-foot-0 guard has a quick-twitch burst that gets him above the rim. His team will run back-door lobs for him in the half-court. He has a tendency, at times, to get one-dimensional, looking to score or attacking with his head down, but he has some electricity in his play-making. Pettiford is a lefty. He plays with the utmost confidence. The shot is more of a set shot, and while he could shoot better off the bounce, it has to be respected. His quick athleticism and burst give him upside to defend the point of attack. There is an aggressive edge to his game.

i am not sure. run it by me real quick and i will give you my opinion. fair? grins

dude just stop. you guys cornered the market on loons. hillary running a ped outfit in the basement of a pizza parlor?

Breaking the Buzzword: Fighting the “Gender Ideology” Myth 5-6 minutes This month we celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. To mark the occasion, we have asked Human Rights Watch experts to reflect on some of the key human rights challenges in their area of specialty. Like its buzzword brother “fake news,” “gender ideology” hasn’t taken long crossing borders into nationalist lexicons. The vacuous but dangerous term was adopted by the Holy See decades ago to refer to a supposed gay and feminist-led movement to subvert traditional families and social values, a reaction against the rights of women and expanding protections for sexual and gender minorities. Since then, it has developed into a catch-all phrase and short-hand for various anxieties about social change—a Hydra-like global conspiracy myth that, despite being mildly ridiculous and readily exposed, has significant traction. In recent years, “gender ideology” has been used as a secular rallying cry against same-sex marriage in France, an alliance-building initiative between nationalists and religious conservatives in Poland, a boost to anti-Muslim groups in Austria, a popularity enhancer for Costa Rican presidential hopeful Fabricio Alvarado, and a mobilizing tool against the recent peace accord in Colombia. Which is a lot. How can one concept have so many purposes? In France, anti-gender activists tried to frame the marriage equality debate around protection of children within traditional families under threat from a foreign ideology; in Poland, nationalists and conservatives rallied around an idea presented as dangerously cosmopolitan and against church teachings; in Austria, anti-immigrant groups suggested a link between gender progressives and immigrants—both accused of undermining the social fabric; in eastern Europe, anti-gender activists mobilized against the Istanbul Convention on combatting violence against women, because it was said to legitimize transgender identity claims; in Costa Rica, an outlier in the 2018 presidential election did surprisingly well by conjuring up a threat to the gender order; and in Colombia, citizens opposed to the peace accords suggested that the deal was the thin edge of a sinister “gender ideology” wedge. “Gender ideology” has also insinuated itself into mainstream US politics where its deployment is evident in domestic and foreign policy initiatives. In 2016, Roger Severino, then-director of the DeVos Center for Religion and Civil Society at the conservative Washington-based Heritage Foundation, blamed the inclusion of transgender troops on a “radical new gender ideology”; in 2017 Trump appointed him director of the Office for Civil Rights at the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The recently leaked HHS memo that seeks to define gender as binary and immutable, and US attempts to remove the word “gender” from United Nations documents, stem from fears of “gender ideology.” At its root, the practice of raising the specter of undefined “gender ideology” aims to curtail sexual and reproductive rights and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) equality by playing on people’s fear of social change and claiming a global conspiracy of great influence and scale. Where advances are made in women’s empowerment or in non-discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity, those decrying “gender ideology” see dark forces at work to destroy the social order. Some have referred to the term as “symbolic glue,” or an “empty signifier”: it simultaneously means nothing and everything, but is consistently used to attack feminism, transgender equality, the existence of intersex bodies, the elimination of sex stereotyping, family law reform, same-sex marriage, access to abortion, contraception and comprehensive sexuality education. Exposing it for what it is—a fantasy of a gender and sexuality conspiracy—and loosening its grip on public debate is crucial in the years ahead to ensure this myth does not shape policy and limit women’s reproductive rights and the rights of sexual and gender minorities. The anti-gender movement has successfully consolidated disparate constituencies around a flimsy but effective moral panic over gender and sexuality. The women’s movement and LGBT advocates pushing back would do well to learn from their opponents’ playbook—sexuality and gender issues are indeed linked—and mobilize jointly around fundamental rights to dignity, bodily autonomy, access to information, the right to live free from violence and discrimination, and freedom of association and expression.

leftist loons? your side is trying to get a mentally handicapped person into office because they want the seat. they could care less how much they embarrass him or he embarrasses himself. you can throw loon out all you want but i got one word for ya.TRUMP. please make note i did not stutter................i bet you are dating mrs greene since her and her hubs split am i right?

Trump Used Secret Service Protection to Scam Taxpayers Ryan Bort Mon, October 17, 2022 at 12:17 PM·2 min read In this article: Donald Trump 45th President of the United States Carolyn Maloney U.S. Representative from New York Donald Trump Jr. American businessman (born 1977) Former President Trump Holds Rally In Warren, Michigan - Credit: Getty Images Donald Trump charged the Secret Service as much as five times the typical government rate to stay at his properties, records obtained by the House Oversight Committee reveal. The development is only the latest example of the former president using the office to enrich himself. “The exorbitant rates charged to the Secret Service and agents’ frequent stays at Trump-owned properties raise significant concerns about the former President’s self-dealing and may have resulted in a taxpayer-funded windfall for former President Trump’s struggling businesses,” Committee Chair Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) wrote to Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, The Washington Post reported on Monday. The committee obtained records showing the Trump Organization overcharged the Secret Service to stay at Trump properties on at least 40 occasions, including once instance in which they charged the agency $1,185 per night to protect Donald Trump Jr. when the government rate was $201. The Trump Organization charged the Secret Service at total of $1.4 million to accommodate agents protecting the president and his family, which means $1.4 million in taxpayer money went directly to the president’s private company. Trump visited his properties constantly while in office, including making 145 trips to Mar-a-Lago — the Palm Beach, Florida, estate where he hoarded hundreds of classified documents after leaving the White House. “Given the long-standing concerns surrounding the former President’s conflicts of interest and efforts to profit off the presidency, the committee has a strong interest in obtaining a complete accounting of federal government spending at Trump properties,” Maloney continued. “The Committee continues to examine potential legislation to prevent presidential self-dealing and profiteering, as well as to curb conflicts of interest by ensuring that future presidents are prevented from exercising undue influence on Secret Service spending.”

at the end of the day with your superior attitude i find comfort in the fact i never voted for trump becaue I KNEW BETTER!
