If you ever get a chance to fly into or from the Burlington airport you 100% should. See also: the Itty bitty airport in Traverse city, Michigan

It’s still out there, and if you get hit by it it can still be nasty. Especially since a lot of people probably had their last vaccine over a year ago maybe two years.

"You don't actually think they spend $20,000 on a hammer, $30,000 on a toilet seat, do you?"

What? The Deep State® was charged twice for the creation and infection of Americans with Covid?

I think we have 10 whole gates. Even have a few places to eat.

We do things a little differently in the green mountain state...

A government audit, like GAO does, can include whether the expenditures were wasteful.

Always thought everyone just flew into New York and drove over.

The accountant in me is freaking out. I used to be on a payroll team out of college and did some help with corporate AP stuff. It's honestly a little baffling. There should be records that US agencies have. That when they receive a bill. They can confirm and balance out hours, then pay it out. So that when a duplicate bill, even if there is a new invoice number, should cast serious doubt against their own records. Requiring confirming with the employee, even going up thru higher checks from a manager or rep (for a example, a sales rep). That should have been caught.

Yeah I honestly don't know why people aren't on to this.

Auditor here. It’s not our job to figure out if the company is pissing money away. It’s our job to provide reasonable assurance that those transactions are recorded properly. Unless it is fraud or the company is in danger of folding, we don’t care if the company is making poor choices.

'Sources told CBS News that tens of millions of dollars could be involved. '

If it's true, we definitely should investigate, and actually we can catch some, since direct funding to WIV is only around 1 million if I understand correctly.

Vermont has an airport?

Always loved the bit in Independence Day where they explain that’s how they fund Area 51

The unnuanced take never convinces, always overstated and angry. If they ever learnt to argue like civilized adults used to, they might have a chance.

> Authorities searched the plane and its 65 passengers with bomb-sniffing dogs, one of the passengers, State Senate President Pro Tem Phil Baruth, told WCAX-TV.

> The passengers were able to deplane after sitting on the tarmac for almost two hours, Baruth said. Video from WCAX showed emergency personnel lining up the baggage on the ground in front of the aircraft before searching each piece.

So passengers were kept in the plane on the tarmac for two hours with a possible bomb threat?

We were thinking that someone in the trailer rental company were probably crying that day once they found out the offices were being sent back. 😂

You aren’t the only one.
