We're suing the Department of Health and Human Services to shed light on the influence that anti-abortion groups have had on agency policy: americanoversight.org/new-lawsuit-se…
We're asking for communications between Trump appointees and anti-abortion groups, including Alliance Defending Freedom, the Center for Medical Progress, Americans United for Life, the Heritage Foundation, and the Family Research Council: americanoversight.org/document/foia-…
HHS resumes we've obtained from 2017 and 2018 show that many appointees hold strong anti-abortion beliefs and listed their experience working with anti-abortion rights groups: documentcloud.org/documents/4353…
HHS Secretary Azar's and Deputy Secretary Hargan's calendars both show multiple meetings with conservative and anti-abortion groups: americanoversight.org/hhs-secretary-…

In its report on Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao's family's business, @NYTimes pointed to an instance in 2017 when Chao's and Senator Mitch McConnell's offices arranged a Capitol tour for local Chinese Communist Party leaders: nytimes.com/2019/06/02/us/…
We obtained the emails in which Chao and McConnell staff arranged an "off limits" tour for "VIP Guests." documentcloud.org/documents/5700…
The emails we uncovered also show that Chao and McConnell prioritized meeting with supporters and politicians from their home state: americanoversight.org/emails-reveal-…

New: The Trump administration is appealing to the DC Circuit to prevent the public from seeing key documents detailing early efforts to undermine Obamacare: americanoversight.org/trump-administ…
In 2017, the White House sent a letter to right wing members of Congress, outlining plans to use executive actions to slash Obamacare. We FOIA'd and sued for that letter and related communications. americanoversight.org/american-overs…
They released the letter itself, but have been fighting to conceal other related communications. Earlier this year, a federal judge ruled in our favor and ordered the Trump administration to release the files. Now they're appealing. americanoversight.org/federal-judge-…

Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao has retained shares in Vulcan Materials more than a year after the date she promised to divest from them, differing from how previous DOT secretaries have handled potential conflicts of interest. From @WSJ: wsj.com/articles/trans…
We have an active FOIA at the Department of Transportation seeking all communications with Vulcan Materials: americanoversight.org/document/foia-…
Chao isn’t the only Trump cabinet member to fail to divest from stock when required to. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross made seven figures off of Invesco stock he should have divested. Story from @levinecarrie: publicintegrity.org/federal-politi…

NEW: I just spoke with the former head of US Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) – He tells me that he expects hundreds of separated children will never be reunited with their parents. They will be lost in the system. Orphaned by the US Govt'.
He says that during his time at ICE there were rare cases where children could not be reunited with their parents. Separation becomes permanent. This was *before* Trump’s policy that has so far separated 2300+ children from their parents.
He adds there are two separate legal tracks for children and adult migrants who are detained. Adults can be deported within weeks to their home countries, children may be left in the US for years in foster care or with relatives.

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
