All three of the authors of the story Trump is referencing already have Pulitzer Prizes (for their reporting on Trump and Russian meddling)
This is one of those moments we see with particular clarity the fraud of Trump's frequent claims of bias and fake news. These are reporters who've been doing amazing reporting for years, which he has been denouncing, but now he suggests they should be Pulitzer candidates
Michael Schmidt, for example, was the same reporter who broke both the Hillary Clinton email server story and one of the first major Trump-Russia bombshells
CORRECTION: Schmidt broke the news of the private 𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘪𝘭 account. It was @jackgillum and @tbridis who broke the private server story. Sorry for confusing the two! thestate.com/latest-news/ar…

“I can tell you, knowing the president for a good 25 or 30 years, that he would love to have the situation that Viktor Orbán has, but he doesn’t.”- Trump's ambassador to Hungary
The source of the quote:
Trump will host Orbán at the White House today politico.com/story/2019/05/…

The New York Times has received previously unreleased tax documents for Trump, and they paint a devastating picture:

"In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer" nyti.ms/2Vp3Wjx
"Mr. Trump lost so much money [in the same decade when he published The Art of the Deal] that he was able to avoid paying income taxes for eight of the 10 years" covered by the documents
If only there were some way for Trump to clear this up once and for all 🤔

It's hard to explain how insane this episode of Trump Inc is, in just the first five minutes
wnycstudios.org/story/trump-in…
First, during one of Trump's visits to Mar-a-Lago, a group of people, including Steve Bannon and other White House aides, commandeered one of the resort's bars and proceeded to rack up hundreds of dollars in charges for premium liquor, which the State Dept was billed for.
Over the objections of the State Department, Mar-a-Lago was ultimately paid by the White House -- whose chief occupant, Donald Trump, owns and still profits from the luxury resort.

So #Trump is holding a news conference in about five minutes. I’ll be watching (and probably tweeting). Follow/mute at will!
Okay, #Trump has started speaking. He's already slurring. He's already made a joke about "a lot of......MEDIA.".

This does not bode well.
#Trump is now saying that China wants to "see me lose an election because they've never been challenged before."

It's not just China, pal.

4 years ago tomorrow (July 17, 2014), Malaysia Airlines Flight #MH17 was shot down by the Russian 53rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade, killing all 298 men, women and children aboard. #TreasonSummit #HelsinkiSummit
Not an auspicious beginning.
• Kremlin describes very different agenda than Trump
• Trump makes no mention of election interference in his opening remarks
• congratulates Russia on the World Cup – but not the winner, France

No puppet. #TreasonSummit interc.pt/2uoi9xI
Russia seconds #Trump’s tweet blaming U.S. for bad relations theintercept.com/2018/07/16/liv…

How #Trump became a #Soviet/#Russian Agent
1. #Trump's first known visit to #Soviet and #Moscow in 1987 looks to be part of a pattern. The #SteeleDossier says that the #Kremlin had been cultivating# Trump for “at least five years” before 2016 elections, meaning it asserts a beginning in 2011 or 2012.
2.The #SovietUnion was interested in #Trump three decades earlier. The top level of the #Soviet diplomatic service arranged his 1987 #Moscow visit.

#BREAKING:#Trump says Russian meddling began in 2014, "WAY BEFORE HE PLANNED TO RUN." Well turns out he trademarked his #MAGA slogan WAY BACK IN 2012--a few months before HIS #MissUniverse Pageant IN MOSCOW. Hmmm
#TheResistance #TrumpRussia #CNN #MSNBC #FoxNews #bbcnews
#BREAKING:As.@just_susie3 correctly points out, #Trump didn't just go to Moscow for his #MissUniverse pageant, he later bragged to.@hughhewitt in 2015 how he met "THE TOP PEOPLE" in Russia. Hmmm
#TheResistance #TrumpRussia #CNN #MSNBC #FoxNews #bbcnews
#BREAKING:Also check this out from.@kmoc01--A Russian Govt official and #Trump acquaintance tweeted in Jan 2014 that #Trump "WILL BE GREAT PRESIDENT!" and they'd SUPPORT HIM FROM RUSSIA. HOW DID SHE KNOW?--SMOKING GUN!!

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

National politics correspondent for Newsweek, Nina Burleigh, with a fun find on a TV above the bar at the Trump Hotel DC bit.ly/2E37QRR
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
