Carson's daily schedule from 2017, obtained through a lawsuit and provided to NBC News, also shows that the Trump-appointed secretary only held senior staff meetings once a week.
Ben Carson, the secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development , often took Fridays off or shortened his workday, sometimes leaving early to travel to his multimillion-dollar home in Florida, according to newly obtained documents.
Of the 31 weeks between April 7 and November 1, 2017, NBC reported, Carson made a dozen weekend trips to his Florida home. He flew commercial and on his own dime, according to the documents. In a statement to Newsweek, HUD defended Carson's work schedule, saying the secretary arrived almost each day by 7:30 a.m. to"read over briefing material and prepare for meetings and travel."
"While the role of a Cabinet Secretary is to advise the president and run their agency, the role of NBC seems to be spinning incomplete information and misinforming the public," Carson said. "Looks like we are both doing our jobs."
