Scott Brown admits investigation into inappropriate comments

U.S. Ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa Scott Brown admitted on Wednesday that he is under investigation by the State Department for making inappropriate comments during a Peace Corp event in Samoa earlier this year.

"Through rumor and innuendo, Gail and I have heard there's an inquiry about my conduct while I was in Samoa," Brown told New Zealand media, alongside his wife.

Brown said he is under investigation for comments made at a reception, where he told attendees that they looked "beautiful" and that they should work for the hospitality industry.

"When we walked into the Peace Corp event we walked in and there was a receiving line and prior to walking they were all, like, dirty and grungy," Brown said.

Just STFU...you fucked up, just have the nads to admit it!! This isn’t some left wing conspiracy because the crowd weren’t Trump syncophants! Own your fuck up and move on...clearly Brown, like most of his ilk, are incapable of admitting when they are wrong!
