I just left this info for David Seaman under his newest video, which included lifting up a line from an email that we read when it first came out but, for some reason never flagged. Terrific that someone did AND there's even more.
FROM THE SAME EMAIL: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/26903
Here's the money line:
"fresh, handmade tortillas flown in from Mexico the previous day, "
No one needs to fly handmade tortillas in at all, let alone a day ahead of time for any party. There are a million places in DC that make authentic handmade Mexican tortillas, which would actually be fresher if purchased the day of the party.
Googled "Washington, DC handmade mexican tortillas"
872, 000 returns
Gee, with Obama's $65,000 in pizza and hotdogs being flown in from Chicago and all these handmade tortillas being flown in from Mexico there is certainly a lot of "flying around" of food, isn't there?

The only evidence for taxpayer money being spent on "pizza/hotdogs" is an email from a guy in Austin without firsthand knowledge. It's basically a claim with no supporting evidence.
Googling Six Billion Missing gives me this as the first result.

Oh well that just clears everything up. They aren't missing $6 billion. They just have no proof of where the $6 billion went.
Politifact is full of shit.

"No worries, it's totally legit, we just don't have any records that provide any evidence of that 'fact'. Nothing to see here." This was the same type of thing as Donald Rumsfeld and the Pentagon's missing $2.3 trillion. Don't worry it was spent somewhere on something. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU4GdHLUHwU

This is true. 2.3 trillion was never missing from the Pentagon either.
The only way you can believe that is if you have no concept of a trillion dollars is.
