The Department of Transportation’s Inspector General just released a report citing Trump’s Secretary of Transportation, Elaine Chao for misusing government resources to advance her family’s business concerns.
Chao, of course, wasn’t just a member of Trump’s cabinet. She’s also the wife of GOP Senate Minority Leader, Mitch McConnell.
Among a number of other troubling improprieties, the report cites Chao for:
Using her staff “to contact the Department of Homeland Security about the status of a work permit application[…] for a foreign student who was a recipient of Chao family philanthropy.”
