[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This story has gotten worse. https://washingtoncitypaper.com/article/694319/the-secrecy-surrounding-bowsers-trip-to-the-masters/ 1) a developer paid for the trip and has not yet put the burden on the taxpayers. 2) she met with John Falcicchio at the event Someone on Twitter described it as "big 'it's not a misuse of tax dollars if it is bribery' vibes"[/quote] Why is this a surprise? Bowser is generally viewed as being in the pocket of big development interests. Falcicchio, once known as "Pizza Boy" and later as "Johnny Business" was Bowser's bag man consigliere to developers. DC may have settled the sexual harassment lawsuits against Falcicchio and stuck the taxpayers with the tab, but the Feds reportedly are looking into Johnny Business's business with developers on behalf of Bowser.[/quote]
