President Trump may have tweeted about his bond with electricians today because Biden was speaking to the IBEW. Worth remembering that for all his pro-worker rhetoric, he doesn’t have much sympathy for workers whose wallets have been drained. My column: bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
"When I was reporting on Trump’s political and business dealings in New York and Atlantic City in the early 1990s, vendors routinely complained to me about how casually and frequently he refused to pay his bills. That’s never really changed much." bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
"Electricians (and contractors, architects, lawyers, you name it) who have actually worked for Trump and the Trump Organization know that the president has a well-worn reputation for stiffing people who work for him once they submit their bills."

Is Julian Assange a journalist? A publisher? A hacker? A criminal? All of those? bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
It’s complicated. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
Assange may be “a conscientious objector, engaging in a long, honorable tradition of civil disobedience. He may even have acted at times as only a publisher. If he became a hacker and broke the law, though, he was no longer a journalist or just a messenger. He was a criminal.”

To clarify: Barr has no evidence of improprieties in the FBI investigation, including “spying,” but wants to examine the matter anyway because he has "concerns" and because, as he said, he believes spying did occur (even if he hasn’t seen evidence of it) bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
"Barr is wading into a political and legal quagmire here and of course he knows that. He’s also, in his own soft-spoken and resolute way, dropping depth charges into the national conversation about the Trump presidency and the Trump-Russia investigation, and he knows that, too."
"Roy Cohn was a ruthless and sleazy attack dog who taught Trump how to weaponize the legal system to get his own way as a young developer in New York. Barr certainly isn’t anything like Cohn. But he’s trying." bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

There’s a ritual for ex-West Wingers; let’s call it the “it-was-sometimes-really-horrible-working-in-the-Trump-White-House-but-I-decided-to-continue-debasing-myself-anyway-because-there-were-things-I-wanted-that-made-it-worth-selling-my-soul” sacrament. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
“Lest it’s lost on anyone by now, Donald Trump is not some Peter Drucker-style organisational guru. He doesn’t have a management “theory” at all...and anyone using consultantspeak to parse Trumpian chaos, staff turnover and bumbling is kidding themselves.” bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
In a dysfunctional White House overseen by a president who cares more about talking points than policy, Stephen Miller outlasted competitors and will steer President Trump’s already ruthless immigration policy even more directly than he has in the past. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

New #QAnon 1318.

Think LOGICALLY.
Mass exodus in DC?
Mass exodus- corporate CEOs?
Why?
Who has the POWER?
Who has the CONTROL?
If POTUS was NOT IN CONTROL would they be retreating?

#Q #MAGA #GreatAwakening #Trump #POTUS #WeThePeople #WWG1WGA #MondayMotivation @realDonaldTrump
When #Q asks, "Mass exodus in DC?" he is referring to the unprecedented number of representatives who will not be seeking reelection. As of 4/27/18 that number is up to 53, based on this report.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

President and Mrs. Trump are dining at the Trump Hotel DC right now.
It’s a 7:41 drive from the White House to the Trump Hotel DC (with a motorcade; slower for you).
