LIVE NOW: We just released a comprehensive new tool that allows the public, journalists and lawmakers to track the unprecedented conflicts of interest that President Trump has created by not divesting his businesses. citizensforethics.org/trump-conflict…
2/Since Trump took office, CREW has been tracking the blurred lines between the company he profits from and the administration he sits atop.

We put out two annual reports, and in August we put out a report showing Trump had blown past 2,300 conflicts. citizensforethics.org/2000-trump-con…
3/ In the roughly two months since we put out that report, our count of total conflicts has grown by more than two hundred, so we decided annual or biannual reports just won't cut it anymore.

With the tally growing every day, we need to give people more timely information.
4/ Now, on any given day, users can come to the tracker to see what we've cataloged, and dive a little deeper into the tallies that make up the overall numbers.
5/ Journalists can also give context to a particular conflict they're reporting on, by explaining that they do not occur in a vacuum. Each new conflict is a part of a massive and growing number of problematic interactions between Trump's businesses and his duties as President.
