Claire McCaskill, please pick up the white courtesy phone:
Businesses tied to U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill’s husband have been awarded more than $131 million in federal subsidies since the Missouri Democrat took office in 2007, an analysis by @kcstar has found https://t.co/kKwlFmO2Fd

The article’s authors note that “there’s no evidence that McCaskill played any part in directing federal funds to businesses affiliated with her husband.” But given McCaskill’s own — shall we say? — problematic history, she doesn’t exactly make us want to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Someone should get @clairecmc on the record on this…???

Someone should … but will they?
Just imagine if this were a Republican…
That said, I am sure the 'whataboutism' on this will start immediately to defend her. https://t.co/jm9tnvfgIj
