FBI documents released Monday include an allegation that Hillary Clinton took lamps and furniture from her State Department office for her home in Washington, D.C., echoing a similar controversy that dogged the Clintons in 2001. “Early in Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state, she and her staff were observed removing lamps and furniture from the State Department which were transported to her residence in Washington, D.C.,” the summary of the interview says. "The agent] does not know whether these items were ever returned to the government."

A similar controversy that dogged the Clintons when they left the White House in 2001 and took $190,000 worth of gifts and furniture with them. Those who gave the gifts said they were intended for the White House, including $28,000 of gifts given to the National Park Service for the White House’s personal collection, according to The Washington Post.

The flap eventually led to the Clintons returning $28,000 in gifts and paying for $86,000 of gifts and furniture themselves, according to an ABC News report at the time. A House panel would go on to investigate the presidential system and called for reforms to it in wake of the controversy.

The greed is just astounding.

What sort of a person with a net worth of 200 million would steal furniture from the public?
