General services administration and -- the GSA already a big trouble for spending nearly a million dollars.

At an event in Las Vegas back in 2010 and Republican congressman Jeff Denham and a California.

So hot about this -- -- morning if you walk into.

America's Newsroom you say this government's use of taxpayer dollars -- Explain that.

It is a slush fund it and it's an outrage I mean people -- across the nation should be outraged at this it's over a million dollars that they've had this lavish party.

They've given out gifts to employees and now recently we just found out that the director of the region.

Got a bonus he wasn't supposed to get a bonus they had denied him the bonus and then.

The director.

Came in and said yeah you can get it.

10% plus bonus this year so.

Is this -- Americans have such a hard time trusting government because what did -- Bags and it begs the question as to whether -- how much more this is being spent that that we don't know just yet.

So they knew that this happened they knew that these people could have been fired two years ago and yet they've they've let it go on so I want to see greater transparency.
