Trump hotel overcharged Secret Service, report by House Democrats finds
By Jacqueline Alemany
October 18, 2024 at 10:42 a.m. EDT
During Donald Trump’s presidency, his D.C. hotel charged the U.S. Secret Service 300 percent or more above standard government rates on multiple occasions, and at times charged the government agency more than it did other patrons — including a Chinese business and members of a foreign royal family, according to a new report released Friday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee.
The authors of the report, which is based on Trump International Hotel room records from September 2017 and August 2018, argue that Trump violated the Constitution’s foreign and domestic emoluments clauses, which were designed to prevent the president and other federal officials from enriching themselves at taxpayer expense.
The House Democrats’ report cites several previously undisclosed instances in which Trump International Hotel charged the Secret Service rates that were not only above the normal government per diem rate but above rates it charged other patrons. The report is based on records Democrats obtained from Trump’s former accounting firm, Mazars USA, along with corresponding special waivers authorizing the Secret Service to make payments above normal government rates.
When Eric Trump visited the hotel on Feb. 22, 2018, two of the rooms the Secret Service rented were charged at $895 each, 450 percent more than the government rate, according to the report. The same evening, more than 100 rooms at the 263-room hotel were rented out at rates lower than $895, “including at least one room rented out for just $150,” the Democrats found.
That night, four rooms for a “Sheikh Al Thani Family Extended Stay” were charged at rates far less than what the Secret Service was charged, according to the report. The Al Thanis, who are a Qatari royal family, were charged $280 for three rooms and $490 for one room.
The Democratic report did not reveal the total number of rooms rented by the Secret Service, which is considered sensitive law enforcement information. Spokespeople for the Secret Service, the Trump campaign and the Trump Organization did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
During another visit by Eric Trump to the D.C. hotel at the end of the month, on Feb. 27, 2018, the agency paid for a $595 room, according to the report. That rate is far above the government-approved nightly rate for a hotel in D.C., which is usually $195 to $240, and varies from month to month based on average lodging rates in the city. That same evening, two rooms were charged to the Al Thani family at rates of less than $595.
The Washington Post has extensively reported on expenses the Secret Service incurred at Trump properties while agents were protecting him and his family during his time in the White House.
In 2022, The Post reported that U.S. taxpayers paid Trump’s business at least $1.4 million for Secret Service agents’ stays at Trump properties for his and his family’s protection. Receipts and invoices previously obtained by The Post have highlighted not just high charges for rooms at the luxury properties but additional fees, including a $1,300 “furniture removal charge” to the Secret Service in 2018 at Trump’s Turnberry resort in Scotland.
Eric Trump, the Trump Organization’s executive vice president, has repeatedly disputed claims that the family business profited from Secret Service stays at Trump properties and said that the company often gave the Secret Service agents the hotel rooms free of charge or at steeply discounted rates.
However, piecemeal expense records congressional investigators have obtained over the past four years have contradicted Eric Trump’s claims.
Before Republicans took control of Congress in early 2023, Mazars had begun producing documents in response to a congressional subpoena, turning over a subset of records to Oversight Committee Democrats, led by Rep. Jamie Raskin (Md.). But when Republicans assumed control of the House, the new Oversight Committee chairman, James Comer (R-Ky.), ended the congressional investigation into Trump’s alleged violations of the emoluments clause, declining to enforce a court-ordered agreement that Mazars produce evidence related to Trump’s business dealings.
Despite Republican control of the House, Democrats have sought to train public attention on the emoluments issue as Trump has sought to regain the presidency. The money that Trump and his family businesses took in from government sources while he was in the White House — despite his promises to “drain the swamp” — create “the appearance of corruption and pay-to-play,” Democrats argue in the report.
The latest findings are a follow-up of a staff report released by the Democratic staff on the Oversight Committee earlier this year that documented $7.8 million Trump received from at least 20 foreign governments, including China, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, through just four of his businesses over a two-year period while he was president. House Democrats’ new report is based on a single set of records provided to the committee for a single Trump property over an 11-month period, representing what Democrats estimate is only a fraction of the money his company brought in from the Secret Service over four years in office.
The report homes in on room charges footed by the Secret Service, “which Donald Trump treated as his own personal government ATM, extracting from it exorbitant rates his hotel imposed while Secret Service agents protected him, his children, and even foreign leaders,” the Democratic investigators allege.
In one such instance, during a Nov. 28, 2017, stay by Eric Trump and his wife Lara Trump, room records show the Secret Service rented several rooms at a $600 rate — 300 percent more than the $201 normal government rate that month — while a dozen rooms rented to a Chinese company, Inner Mongolia Yitai Coal Co., Ltd., rented for $338.85 each. According to the report, the records also show that more than 80 rooms were rented out that evening at rates less than $600 per room.
Earlier that month, on Nov. 8, 2017, two of the rooms rented by Secret Service to accommodate a visit by Donald Trump Jr. were charged at the rate of $1,185 — five times the per diem rate of $201. That same evening, however, more than 100 rooms were rented out at $125 each. An additional 100 rooms were charged to the “LOC Software R2CON” conference for $170 each, committee investigators found.
Investigators also identified 16 examples of individuals who “made some or all of their expenditures at the hotel while they were federal or state officials,” including eight ambassadors, three individuals appointed by Trump to be federal judges, two governors, one delegation from a state legislature, and two executive branch officials. The payments from the 16 individuals totaled $163,095.23 over that period.
The records produced by Mazars to the committee do not specify the sources of payment for the rooms, but investigators argue that any payments federal or state officials made to Trump’s businesses using state or federal taxpayer funds would represent violations of the domestic emoluments clause.
House Republicans dismissed the report as misleading and outdated, criticizing Democrats for what they characterized as their lack of oversight of the Biden administration.
“Ranking Member Raskin and Democrats continue to expose their hypocrisy as they suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Comer said in a statement. “Today’s report is more recycled garbage from the Democrats’ fruitless and close to a decade-long investigation of President Trump.”
The Trump Organization sold the D.C. hotel to a Miami-based investment fund in 2022. Trump’s remaining portfolio of hotels and golf courses could continue to attract controversy over spending by foreign governments and corporate entities during a second Trump presidency. But some of his new, post presidency business ventures — such as his cryptocurrency enterprise — may give rise to new and unprecedented conflicts of interest for Trump in a second term.
“While we still do not know the full extent of the unconstitutional payments Trump pocketed while fleecing American taxpayers, one thing is certain: we must put legal barriers in place now to prevent the kind of rip-off corruption our Founding Fathers so strongly opposed,” Raskin said in a statement.

Trump – running for president at 78 – says ‘only stupid people put old’ people in top federal roles
Trump is currently the oldest nominee for president in US history and, if elected in November, will be 82 years old when he completes his term
Donald Trump has said “only stupid people put old” people in positions on the Supreme Court – seemingly forgetting that he’s a 78-year-old man running for the top position in the executive branch.
Trump made the remarks during an interview with Bloomberg while in Chicago on Tuesday.
“It’s amazing, because I got three in four years,” Trump said of his appointments to the Supreme Court. “Most people get none. Because, you know, you put them in, they’re young. You tend to put them in young.”
“Only stupid people put old,” he continued. “You know, you don’t put old in, because they’re there for two years or three years, right?”
Trump is running for another four-year term in the White House and is currently the oldest nominee for president in US history. If elected in November, Trump would be 82 years old when he completes his term in 2029.
His age has frequently been a target for the Democrats who have questioned his mental fitness and his ability to serve.
Trump spoke in Chicago on Tuesday where he said ‘only stupid people put old’ in when filling Supreme Court seats

In modern appointments to the Supreme Court, presidents typically look for younger candidates to put on the US’s top court. Justices are lifetime appointments and picking a younger nominee allows presidents to add someone who matches their ideology to the court for decades.
During his term, Trump appointed three members to the court. Neil Gorsuch was 49 years old when he started, Brett Kavanaugh was 53 years old and Amy Coney Barrett was 48.
Those three members now help make up the conservative majority of the court, which has made major changes to federal precedent in recent years including the overturning of Roe v Wade – the landmark ruling that had guaranteed the right to abortion care.
When Trump was questioned about his comments on someone being “old,” it was pointed out to him that he is running for the White House at 78.
But Trump brushed off the comment and ignored the question about his own age.
“So, I got three,” Trump instead responded. “A lot of presidents get none, I got three. And, uh, I think they’ve been three great choices too, by the way.”
Questions about Trump’s mental fitness and age have ramped up on the campaign trail as he has frequently gone on long rants at rallies, ignored or missed questions and, at a Monday town hall, spent the majority of time dancing to music instead of answering questions.
Trump’s own age has been a question on the campaign trail. The issue was highlighted after an odd town hall on Monday that featured more dancing than questions and answers

Several experts previously told The Independent they had concerns similar to the ones they had about President Joe Biden, before the Democrat dropped out paving the way for Kamala Harris.
Dr Ben Michaelis, a clinical psychologist who has previously carried out cognitive assessments for the New York Supreme Court, told The Independent that Trump is “really not in a strong cognitive place.”
Michaelis stressed that he had not personally examined Trump so he could offer no official diagnosis, but watched the former president debate against Harris.
“There’s a term when you’re talking about people with dementia called sundowning, it’s a lot harder for them as the day goes on,” he said,
“It’s very difficult for them to maintain focus on a topic. The idea of being able to maintain that level of focus for that amount of time, that late in the day…you wouldn’t think twice about it if that was your grandfather. It’s just he happens to be running for president.”
Obviously, tRump is speaking about himself.
No one hates Trump more than me. But that is a stupid fake news garbage disinformation story to post.
Trump is obviously talking about appointing federal judges who have life tenure. So of course you want to appoint youngsters. Since their life tenures would have more years. What Trump says has nothing to do at all with other kinds of posts. Or the competence or abilities of the person being appointed.
We get enough garbage on here from the MAGAs. Please don’t add more from the left side. Be better.
Boycott stupid. Country over party.
Re: Orange Duce

Re: Orange Duce
The clear import from the article is that tRump is putting himself in that same category. After all, he repeatedly projects himself through his hate filled rants and made a pitiful example of himself through that declaration. Assuming you actually read the article, this is what the writer is implying as did the commentators which followed the article.

“Arnold Palmer was all man and I say that in all due respect to women, and I love women, but this is a guy that was all man,” Trump said. “This man was strong and tough, and I refuse to say it, but when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there and they said, ‘Oh, my God, that’s unbelievable.’”
By the way, Trump also referred to Kamala Harris as a “sh*t vice president.”

Palmer died before Trump was elected president in 2016, but Palmer’s daughter Peg said that while her father appreciated Trump’s support of golf, Palmer was not a Trump supporter — not by a long shot.
“My dad didn’t like people who act like they’re better than other people,” she said. “He had no patience for people who are dishonest and cheat.

“My dad was disciplined. He wanted to be a good role model. He was appalled by Trump’s lack of civility and what he began to see as Trump’s lack of character. ... What would my dad think of Donald Trump today? I think he’d cringe.

He really is deranged and deteriorating as if it was not obvious. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/10/16/ ... publicans/
from your link:
“There’s reasonable evidence suggestive of forms of dementia,” clinical psychologist Ben Michaelis told STAT. “The reduction in complexity of sentences and vocabulary does lead you to a certain picture of cognitive diminishment.”
No question what so ever that tRump is cognitively impaired. This makes him a bigger threat to the USA and the world.
It has been proven a hundred times that the surest way to the heart of any man, black or white, honest or dishonest, is through justice and fairness.

Define landslide. Maybe tgere is a wager here
Re: Orange Duce
All of us are just STOKED for a fresh round of TrumpTaxCuts for the rich and the multinational Corporations we own, Petey! All my wife's liberal friends are jazzed to enjoy more homes, and more vacations, while TrumpNation gets stuck with the full tab.
Works for me. When can we start, Pete?

^^^ panic is setting in.
Re: Orange Duce
Trump made me more wealthy than I've ever been, Pete. What's more, you know it. The funny part is, you still think Trump will get rid of the gays for you, and that's what this election is about.
This election is about making the rich richer and an even FASTER rate than ever befre.
Anyone who didn't go to a half-*ssed Government College like you know this, Pete. You see, even though you didn't pay any attention in school, many of us did.
You want four more years of Trump? Works for me, Petey.

^^^ have you tried crying about it?
Re: Orange Duce
No matter what, the overeducated libs win. And there's NOTHING you and your fellow TrumpFans can do about it.
It's hilarious watching you try and come to terms with this fact.
Oh no! Not more tax cuts, Pete!! Not that!
Maybe next time you get the chance, work harder in school, Pete.

That's all you got, Pete?
Poor Pete. Ask your corporate life coach about getting you some more education. This time, try a private college.
