Once again, Tom Barrett gets caught funneling campaign cash to his own pockets. First, paying himself through his wife as a “consultant”, and now to be a world traveler, even though Barrett is not to be seen virtually anywhere. We are sick and tired of this kind of slimy inside dealing and these payments raise serious questions about whether Barrett was fudging the reimbursement rate, funding personal travel on his campaign’s dime, or using his campaign as a personal piggy bank.
Anyone see waste, fraud, and abuse here?
If U.S. Rep. Tom Barrett’s mileage reimbursements are accurate, the Michigan Republican drove enough campaign-related miles to circle the Earth once with about 7,000 miles left to spare.
