NEW: The Secret Service just signed a $179,000 contract to rent golf carts in Bedminster -- a sign they're preparing for @realdonaldtrump to visit this summer. Trump hasn't visited any of his properties since 3/8 -- the longest streak of his presidency. https://t.co/EsY3HVvRkX — PolitiTweet.org

David Fahrenthold @Fahrenthold

These payments are so interesting b/c they offered @realdonaldtrump and his biz such a clear moral question. They could set any price, knowing the govt *had* to pay. The only limit was their own sense of what was right — given that this was taxpayers’ money. — PolitiTweet.org

David Fahrenthold @Fahrenthold

Also, look at this charge from @realdonaldtrump’s DC hotel to the Secret Service in June 2017: $33,638 — exactly enough to rent 149 rooms at the Trump hotel rate of $242/night. Why did they need 139 rooms? The hotel only has 263. https://t.co/dbGCYVJkah — PolitiTweet.org

David Fahrenthold @Fahrenthold

And then there’s Bedminster. @realdonaldtrump’s company rents a cottage to the Secret Service there for $17,000/month (a very high rate for that area). Where did *that* rate come from? And do they rent it year-round, or just in the summer? https://t.co/iHPQ3wOFCD — PolitiTweet.org

David Fahrenthold @Fahrenthold

Like: for years, Mar a Lago has charged the Secret Service $396.15 per room, calling that “at cost.” That’s far higher than a luxury hotel’s usual cost. It’s *8X* higher than the rate Eric Trump claimed he was charging (“like 50 bucks”). So where did they get that number? https://t.co/cBEISUnkn6 — PolitiTweet.org
