Democrats Called Out For 'Mockery' Of Ethics Rules After $60,000 Trip To See Beyoncé Revealed Democrats Called Out For ‘Mockery’ Of Ethics Rules After $60,000 Trip To See Beyoncé Revealed https://www.westernjournal.com/ct/democrats-called-mockery-ethics-rules-60000-trip-see-beyonce-revealed/?jwsource=twi Five Democratic representatives in the Congressional Black Caucus are being called out for their mockery of House ethics rules after it was revealed they went on a $60,000 completely paid-for vacation to South Africa, which included exclusive performances by music artists Beyoncé and Jay-Z. The nonprofit group, Global Citizen, paid for the representatives’ 3-day trip in December to attend the “Global Citizen Mandela 100” concert, which featured popular artists like Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Ed Sheeran, Pharrell Williams and Coldplay’s Chris Martin, the Washington Examiner reported, citing congressional disclosure records. The Democrats, who all had VIP passes to the concert, were U.S. Reps. Gregory Meeks of New York, Barbara Lee of California, Bobby Rush of Illinois, Terri Sewell of Alabama and Hank Johnson of Georgia. And it wasn’t just Democratic politicians who went on the paid-for vacation. Far-left media personalities like “Daily Show” host Trevor Noah and MSNBC host Joy Reid also came along. The politicians even chummed around with Oprah Winfrey and activist Al Sharpton. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DtbLzHaWkAQEnq1.jpg Reverend Al Sharpton  ‏ @TheRevAl @TheRevAl I’m in South Africa headed to the Global Citizen Festival with Congressional Black Caucus members Greg Meeks, Barbara Lee, Bobby Rush & Hank Johnson & my @MSNBC colleague Joy Reid. #GlobalCitizenFestivalSA The stated purpose of the event was to raise awareness for global poverty.
