Ted Lieu
@tedlieu

Dear @CongressEthics: My good friend owns some hotels in CA. Can I write an amendment to the CR that directs all federal agency conferences to be at his hotels? There are no bedbugs & room rates are reasonable.

Just kidding. I'm not massively corrupt like @realDonaldTrump.

What has @realdonaldtrump’s biz charged taxpayers in the past?

—$546/night for hotel rooms at Mar-a-Lago
—$1,000 for liquor that White House staffers drank in one sitting

You see why we still have Q’s about the promise they’ll charge “at cost” this time.
