Well, it looks like Donald Trump is under fire yet again. This time its from the House Oversight Committee, which released documents about the high rates the Trump Organization charged the Secret Service at the hotels the family owns.

This isnt the first time there have been complaints about the former president creating a taxpayer-funded windfall for himself. He reportedly charged the Secret Service upwards of $1,185 per night even though his company claimed early on in his presidency that federal employees would stay for free or at cost, according to the report. New York Democratic Rep. Carolyn Maloney, the panels chairwoman, noted, The exorbitant rates charged to the Secret Service and agents frequent stays at Trump-owned properties raise significant concerns about the former Presidents self-dealing and may have resulted in a taxpayer-funded windfall for former President Trumps struggling businesses.

The committee believes that the Secret Service agency may have spent over $1.4 million of taxpayer money to stay at Trump properties. This is of grave concern to legislators because they want to curb this practice now, so it doesnt become a habit, and future presidents are prevented from exercising undue influence on Secret Service spending.

This issue of charging the Secret Service top dollar to stay at his hotels never bothered Donald Trump and his five children, who all had protection up until July 2021. The former president has continued the practice since he has Secret Service detail for life and hes raking in the dough because the Trump Organization still isnt cutting the federal organization a deal.
