        I don't care which administration came up with $52,000 curtains or what the budget was at the time. It is absolutely absurd.

        In all fairness although it is apparent that the "fine people" Trump has put into these positions are trying to out do each other when it comes to gouging the tax payer to build status it is a problem through out government and many businesses. Its why we are 22 Trillion in debt

        Its why we have the highest costing Healthcare and rank 37th in care provided. 29th in education. 27th in Internet. We are a failed nuclear state who fortunately still has World Reserve Currency status. But China, Russian, and probably now the EU are working to end that.

        Did you forget that BHO brought this country OUT of recession he inherited from GWB? Wouldn't call that pissing away all the money. What the article does mean is that money was available and budgeters know - spend the available money or They'll think you need a tighter budget.

        Keep digging Brett - “We could afford nicer drapes at the time; the USA was spending a lot more on diplomacy back then. “ <- drapes are diplomacy ? Here is a lesson all night heed... just because you can afford something does not mean toy should buy it. -not even “your” $$

        When we will stop getting distracted with news about curtains, this is clearly a ploy to distract us from the serious conversations. $52,0000 is nothing in real terms. The State Department uses $5 million taxpayer money for hand-blown crystal wine glasses. #woke #wokeglobal

        InThis is bs and you know it. Of course she sitting around wondering what does the decor look like and how much are we spending. That certainly is more important than meeting with world leaders. So you’re worried about the cost of $52k but the billions spent 4 Obamacare is fine

        This is the most awful reporting I've ever seen. A bureaucrat is upset that spending is cut for State Dept - the same State Dept that LOST $6 BILLION while she was there - and she even states that they ordered the high-priced curtains because they had huge budgets! Absurd!
