Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has some explaining to do. According to a new report, the Democrat covered up a $61,930 trip that was paid for by Qatar. Worse, Bowser allegedly lied about it, claiming that the D.C. Chamber of Commerce and U.S. Conference of Mayors footed the bill.
Scott Taylor of WJLA 7 (a local ABC affiliate) broke the story, claiming that the mayor is now scrambling to collect the receipts so she can try to file them with the District and avoid legal penalities.
