    It's funny that the article finally explains that the curtains were ordered by the Obama administration, not Nikki Haley.

    WASHINGTON — The State Department spent $52,701 last year buying customized and mechanized curtains for the picture windows in Nikki R. Haley’s official residence as ambassador to the United Nations, just as the department was undergoing deep budget cuts and had frozen hiring.
    The residence, in a new building on First Avenue, has spectacular views, and Ms. Haley is the first ambassador to live in it. For decades, her predecessors lived in the Waldorf Astoria hotel. But after the hotel was purchased by a Chinese insurance company with a murky ownership structure, the State Department decided in 2016 to find a new home for its top New York diplomat because of security concerns.
    The government leased the apartment, just blocks from the delegation’s offices, with an option to buy, according to Patrick Kennedy, the top management official at the State Department during the Obama administration. The full-floor penthouse, with handsome hardwood floors covering large open spaces stretching nearly 6,000 square feet, was listedat $58,000 a month.
    A spokesman for Ms. Haley said plans to buy the curtains were made in 2016, during the Obama administration. Ms. Haley had no say in the purchase, he said.

    I don't know why the Obama administration ordered the curtains. Maybe the NY times should fully investigate the story before doing a hit job.

    They make no mentions of that spokesman claims.

    I'm going to go ahead and call that bull . What's next? Ben Carson didn't spend 38 thousand dolllars on furniture, it was the Obamas?

    Furthermore, the article goes on to say this:

    The curtains themselves cost $29,900, while the motors and hardware needed to open and close them automatically cost $22,801, according to the contracts. Installation took place from March to August of last year, during Ms. Haley’s tenure as ambassador.
    Yeah this was all her unlike what the spokesman is saying that she had no say.

    I think we should buy the place unless we can take the power curtains in the next move.

    The justification memo for the expense was in 2016, so the expense approval pre-dated the receipt. Obama's administration changed the housing location in 2016 and I'm sure they started ordering what was needed to furnish a location that is ultimately managed by the State Department. But this is all news flash nonsense. You could pick any administration and find this type of spending and make a big deal of nothing.

    It's no different than people totaling the cost for Obama and his family to take vacations to Hawaii and comparing it to the people in poverty.

    I see this is very important to you so I'll let it go.

    She still made the purchase and its responsible for everything that occured post Obama years, however.

    It isn't. I just read the whole article. I'm sure you may have many reasons not to like Nikki Haley that aren't based on obfuscation and I would suggest that you stay with those.

    Courtains, are very upscale curtains.

    Thus the $52,000.
