When President Donald Trump named his relatives his top advisors, many Americans were angry at what some believe to be illegal nepotism. Son-in-law, Jared Kushner, became Senior Advisor to the President and Director of the Office of American Innovation. First daughter Ivanka Trump became an adviser to the president and director of the Bureau of Economic Initiatives and Entrepreneurship. And the couple and their three children moved into fancy DC digs, a six-bedroom, six-and-a-half bathroom house.
Now that they are leaving the White House, the Trump and Kushner families have forced American taxpayers to pay the bill for a separate bathroom from their Washington home for the intelligence agents that will protect the couple and their children over their lives.
“The intelligence agency assigned to President Trump’s daughter and son-in-law has been ordered not to use any of the half-dozen bathrooms in the couple’s home. He spent months looking for a reliable toilet that he could use at work according to neighbors and law enforcement officers. After resorting to a Porta potty and bathrooms in the nearby home of former President Barack Obama and the not-so-nearby residence of Vice President Pence, they finally found a toilet to call themselves. “
This toilet is in the $ 3,000 basement studio apartment that the Secret Service had to rent and that happens to belong to a friend of Trump and the Kushners.
Total so far cost to US taxpayers: more than $ 100,000.
The agents were also forced to ask local companies if they could use their toilets because the family would not allow them to use theirs.
“It’s the first time I’ve heard of an intelligence detail that has to go to these extremes to find a bathroom,” said a police officer familiar with the situation.
