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.

This would be one hell of a coincidence.

She's just following the Democrat business model. Probably went to the Clinton School of Business and Grifting

Someone should get @clairecmc on the record on this…???
— Pradheep J. Shanker, M.D., M.S. (@Neoavatara) July 24, 2018
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

Eagerly awaiting to see this get as much attention as that flight the treasury secretary’s hot wife took once https://t.co/7EpnP8nITK
