Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin has been milking his access to the Secret Service.Thanks to Trump's order extending the use of the Secret Service to members of his administration, Mnuchin has used the professional perk to his benefit. The publication reports that in his first six months out of office, Mnuchin has racked up the highest Secret Service tab. The Washington Post detailed how Mnuchin managed to rack up more than $150,000 in Secret Service expenses:
Wilbur Ross is reportedly fantasizing about putting "Trump condos on the moon."
Back in February after the Trump administration transitioned out of the White House, Ross spoke with Bloomberg and shared his upcoming post-government plans; which involve "Trump condos on the moon."
Ben Carson is launching a venture similar to Boy Scouts of America.
After departing Washington, D.C., Ben Carson the former Housing and Urban Development Secretary launched an organization called the American Cornerstone Institute. Carson's new think tank reportedly places an emphasis on discovering "commonsense solutions to some of our nation's biggest problems."
Elaine Chao contributed to calls for Kroger to be boycotted.
Chao wife of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and former transportation secretary worked for several of the country's top corporations prior to her role with the Trump administration.
