    Anyone care about Ivanka violating ethic rules????

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/15/polit...ics/index.html

    But his daughter and West Wing adviser could have violated a federal ethics rule with her message. The United States Office of Government Ethics, which is aimed at "preventing conflicts of interest in the executive branch," has guidelines on endorsements.
    "Executive branch employees may not use their Government positions to suggest that the agency or any part of the executive branch endorses an organization (including a nonprofit organization), product, service, or person," the office's guideline says.
    And anyone here believes she even eats Goya?

    Have the government watchdog yell at her and tell her not to do it again, issue a warning... (a warning can’t be overturned in court, at least in the traffic world) then let it go..

    Just my opinion, I could be wrong..

    Oh.. and she must do an endorsement for Goya competition if asked..

    I happened to see a bit of the statement by the head of Goya---seldom do grown men publicly preform such acts

    I think Monica has found a kindred soul

    No it's just that everyone does not find him to be the devil incarnate and center their world around finding things supposedly bad about him and whopping it up.

    Do I care about her? NO she is just another unqualified hack given a government job from daddy. Nepotism at its finest. None of that family gives a rats ass for the rule of law.

    Sorry, it is not “against the law” to salute a booster on your private website no matter what Obama’s ex-ethics booster flushes out. That Fred’s only website gets bent because of it is merely a bonus.

    Not talking legal.. talking ethics...

    On edit: I deliberately avoided the huge opportunity provided to make bad taste jokes about certain professions lack of familiarity with ethics...

    The only complaint I have about Goya is that their beverage cans are all steel, no aluminum...They stay where I find them...I've never bought any of their food products......Ben
