Robert Wood Johnson IV, a billionaire who owns the New York Jets, is under investigation by the State Department's top watchdog.

WASHINGTON – The State Department's top watchdog is investigating President Donald Trump's ambassador to the United Kingdom over allegations he made sexist and racist comments and used his role to try to steer new business toward Trump'sa billionaire who owns the New York Jets, is being finalized now, said this official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

CNN first reported the accusations that Johnson had made racist and sexist remarks in his work as the ambassador. The network reported that he made generalizations about Black men and questioned why the Black community celebrates Black History Month. In a draft of the IG's report on the sexist and racist comments – part of which was shared with USA TODAY – Johnson told investigators that he respected"both the law and the spirit" of equal employment principles. The draft report says he reviewed a video on workplace harassment and instructed his staff to do the same.

He said some messed up things, but saying that “women were cheaper and worked harder than men” is actually an insult to men, not women! It’s saying men are overpriced and lazy.

We know he is important because he is a IV in a long line of assholes.

'The State Department official said that issue has been broken off from the review of Wood's sexist and racist comments because it involves 'serious wrongdoing.' ' Sexism: Meh. Racism: Meh. Golf: Whoa! This is serious!

He fits right into the Trump job qualification list.

that's the guy who sponsors all that PBS programming. Your turn, PBS

Another witch hunt with falsified charges - just another step in the never ending, baseless attack on Trump.

As he should be....there is a lot to unpack.

Thought sexist and racist comments plus tons of corrupt money were a requirement to become a Trump official. Confused.

SecPompeo will fix this for realDonaldTrump for a free Buffet at WhiteHouse with kayleighmcenany as dessert

Johnson is also the Johnson & Johnson heir. No joke.
