Woody Johnson, Trump’s ambassador to the UK and an owner of the New York Jets, was investigated by the State Department inspector general after allegations he made racist and sexist comments and sought to use his position to benefit Trump’s business.

Robert Wood "Woody" Johnson, the top envoy since August 2017 to one of the United States' most important allies, made racist generalizations about Black men and questioned why the Black community celebrates Black History Month, according to exclusive new information shared with CNN by three sources and a diplomat familiar with the complaints to the State Department inspector general.

Those sources said that it was a struggle to get Johnson on board with an event for International Women's Day, which is also widely commemorated at embassies worldwide. One source said he asked why he had to do"a feminist event." However, that event did end up taking place.
