Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

Exactly this. Dana and I discuss this concept on tomorrow’s @dailybeanspod.com. He won’t get these tapes, but that’s not the only purpose of the request.
As @gregsargent.bsky.social said about a different (@wyden.senate.gov) letter last week: “such trolling by lawmakers can be constructive if it communicates new information to the public or highlights the failure of others in power to exercise oversight and impose accountability.”

Trump's Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick just relaxed export restrictions on AI chip manufacturers AMD and Nvidia.
Lutnick's family business empire holds a combined $1.1B stake in both companies.
"Conflict of interest" is an understatement.
