BREAKING: House Oversight is investigating whether US military expenditures have been propping up Trump Turnberry. A peculiar refueling stop in Glasgow by a US Air Force crew, who stayed overnight at the resort—there & back—tipped them off. Our exclusive:

One crew member was so struck by the choice of hotel—markedly different than the Marriotts and Hiltons the 176th maintenance squadron is used to—that he texted someone close to him and said the crew’s per diem allowance wasn’t enough to cover food and drinks at the ritzy resort.

Had the crew needed to make a stop in the U.K.—which they have never done before on this routine trip—Lakenheath Air Base is situated nearby in England. The layover might have been cheaper, too: the military gets billed at a higher rate for fuel at commercial airports.

“The Defense Department has not produced a single document in this investigation,” said a senior Democratic aide on the oversight panel. “The committee will be forced to consider alternative steps if the Pentagon does not begin complying voluntarily in the coming days.”

It should also be noted that the military has spent $11 million on fuel at Prestwick Airport — the closest airport to Trump Turnberry, where this particular crew’s plane refueled in March — since October 2017. That fuel would be cheaper if purchased at a U.S. military base.

The piece of the Prestwick Airport track that this article appears to be missing: Prestwick Airport has a formal business relationship with the Trump Organization:

Taxpayers spent $65000 on golf cart rentals to Trump Doral for a long weekend of golf in 2018. I’m president of a country club we pay lease payments on a fleet of sixty golf carts two utility carts and a beverage cart and that would cover at least five or six months

It’s no wonder Trump is clueless about everything required to be the president. His full time job is manufacturing scams to fleece the taxpayers.

Why would the US military sign a contract with the Glasglow Prescott Airport? Especially if fuel more expensive?

I got excited at another possible emoluments violation but then realized that he'll get away with yet another crime and now I'm back to being depressed again.
