Next Obama appointee to stumble is Vivek Kundra
Kundra is yet another shady appointee of Barack Obama's, and now, he's had to take leave because of what an FBI raid has turned up (via Hot Air):
An aide to President Barack Obama is on leave from his White House job after the FBI raided his old District of Columbia government office Thursday, arresting a city employee and a technology consultant on corruption charges, a White House official said.The Washington Post has more on this. "Ghostworkers" and kickbacks were abound in this latest eyebrow-raising discovery.
The charges were lodged against the two men at a federal court hearing as the FBI finished searching the city’s technology office, which was led until recently by Obama’s new computer chief, Vivek Kundra.
Kundra is on leave from his White House job until further details of the case become known, according to a White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the official did not want to publicly discuss personnel matters.
