Potential conflicts of interest/scandals. Another one to discuss:
(New White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci has joined the Trump administration with a $180 million conflict of interest hanging over his head.AP)
• Anthony Scaramucci is selling his fund of funds business to a Chinese conglomerate with ties to the government.
• The firm, the HNA Group, is facing an increasing number of questions at home and abroad, and the deal is subject to review by the US Treasury.
• The sale reportedly kept Scaramucci out of the White House in January because of the conflicts it raises.

All scandals count, so I'm sure you'll be very interested in the 'Mooch'. Right?

Only if Bernie was POTUS. Then he could pardon his wife, himself, his closest friends and everyone in his family. |

Well, I'd be more interested in a scandal involving a current WH Communications Director than one involving a spouse of a former candidate.

The citizens of Vermont have a legitimate interest in this issue. |
