Sen. McCaskill's Husband Reportedly Used Her Access To Close Big-Money Deals
We're sure that's never happened in the Senate before
Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill's husband used the U.S. Senate Dining Room to cut business deals selling tax credits tied to stimulus money, a whistle-blowing executive inside his company alleged on an audio recording exclusively obtained by The Daily Caller.
"The thing that irritated me about this was he [McCaskill's husband Joseph Shepard] entertained these outside investors in the Senate Dining Room," the whistle-blower said. "That's where he closed the deal."
