BIG: @publicintegrity last night obtained a WH Office of Management and Budget memo indicating the Trump administration moved to stop aid to Ukraine hours after @POTUS’ call in July with Ukraine President Zelensky.

Story: publicintegrity.org/national-secur… #UkraineDocs #FOIA
Here’s an at-a-glance look from @publicintegrity’s @ZachFB at what the documents we obtained last night — the product of our newsroom suing the Trump administration in federal court — revealed about an issue at the heart of Trump’s impeachment. publicintegrity.org/national-secur…
.@publicintegrity continues to fight in federal court to obtain unredacted versions of other #UkraineDocs we received last week publicintegrity.org/national-secur…
Also, if you’re just hearing about our newsroom for the first time, we’re a nonprofit investigative news org celebrating our 30th anniversary this year. More about us and how we do what we do: publicintegrity.org/about/

From the Editorial Board:

It is our view that more than enough proof exists for the House to impeach President Trump for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

Here is a summary of the evidence: wapo.st/38sbXa4
Trump’s actions were an abuse of his presidential powers.

He used his official authority — offering an Oval Office meeting to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky — to obtain a personal benefit: mud he could sling at a likely opponent in 2020. wapo.st/38sbXa4
The Office of Management and Budget placed a hold on $391 million in military aid to Ukraine on July 12 on Trump’s orders.

It remained in place until Sept. 11, long after an interagency review unanimously concluded it should be released. wapo.st/38sbXa4

🔥@RudyGiuliani’s henchman Lev Parnas says *in May* he gave #Ukraine an ultimatum: publicly announce a probe of Biden, or else @VP Pence wouldn’t attend Zelensky’s swearing-in and aid would be frozen.

Rudy: “I never told him to say that.”🙄

🚨Lev Parnas’ #extortion meeting in #Ukraine in May occurred AFTER Rudy (with Parnas’s help) had planned a trip there to urge Zelensky to pursue investigations to help @realDonaldTrump.🤬

#RICO #corruption #TrumpBribed @HouseDemocrats @RepAdamSchiff

nytimes.com/2019/05/09/us/…
After reports of Rudy’s #extortion trip to #Ukraine surfaced in May, Rudy suddenly cancelled his trip, claiming he was “set up” by Ukrainians, and blamed Democrats for trying to “spin” his trip.

“They say I was meddling in the election.”🙄

Week 152 ...we have covered that the potency of his tweets have had decreased, both in impact and visibility, as his time in office wears on. Also, notably, the media coverage of Trump’s frenzied tweeting has dropped off theweeklylist.org/weekly-list/we… via @Amy_Siskind
@Amy_Siskind On Saturday, Politico reported U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson ordered the White House to preserve records of all of Trump’s dealings with foreign leaders, including his interactions with Ukraine.
@Amy_Siskind On Saturday, Trump called for Sen. Mitt Romney’s impeachment, tweeting, without evidence, Utahns consider their vote for him “a big mistake,” and calling him “a fool” who plays into the hands of Democrats.

THREAD

Today, the Ohio Democratic Party released an updated timeline of @senrobportman 's intense involvement in the Ukraine crisis that is now the center of the impeachment inquiry.
@senrobportman 2/30

The bottom line is that as chair of the Ukraine Caucus, Portman didn’t only have a front row seat to the entire ordeal — it appears that he was directly engaged with all sides of what was a deeply problematic conversation as that conversation occurred.
@senrobportman 3/30

Portman owes Ohioans and all Americans a full and transparent account of what he knew, when he knew it and what steps he took once it became clear what Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani were up to.

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
