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.

@MollyJongFast always says kleptocrats gonna klept but this is some next-level corruption. Individual-1 is on track to be remembered as the most corrupt politician in American history. -
