Two Trump speeches, two dozen dubious claims President Trump made a host of dubious claims during two recent public appearances, jumping from taxes to trade, from Iraqi oil to Canadian immigration laws, from promoting voter-fraud conspiracy theories to suggesting a California mayor should be charged with obstruction of justice.
We counted 24 false or misleading statements in Trump’s infrastructure speech in Ohio on March 29 and his roundtable on taxes in West Virginia on Thursday. This is not an exhaustive list, however, and some of Trump’s claims include multiple inaccuracies.
Warning of ‘repercussions,’ Trump company lawyers seek Panama president’s help PANAMA CITY - Lawyers representing President Trump’s company last month wrote directly to the president of Panama, asking him to intervene in a legal fight over the Trump International Hotel in the capital — and warning that the case could have “repercussions” for Panama’s reputation. The law firm, Panama-based Britton and Iglesias, wrote in Spanish to President Juan Carlos Varela on March 22 to “urgently request your influence in relation to a commercial dispute regarding the Trump hotel.” At the time, the majority owner of the Trump hotel — Cypriot-born investor Orestes Fintiklis — had kicked out the Trump Organization as the hotel’s manager, after a ruling from a low-level Panamanian judge.

The request was extraordinary: The U.S. president’s company was asking the leader of a U.S. ally to intercede on its behalf, disregarding Panama’s separation of powers. It is the first known instance of the Trump Organization asking directly for a foreign leader’s help with a business dispute since Trump was elected.

Sinclair commentator resigns after vulgar tweet about Parkland survivor David Hogg A conservative commentator at a Sinclair Broadcast Group television station has resigned after a statement he made threatening to sexually assault Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg drew harsh criticism and sparked the beginnings of an advertiser boycott. Jamie Allman, who hosted a nightly news show the Sinclair-owned ABC affiliate in St. Louis, wrote on Twitter that he was “hanging out getting ready” to sexually assault Hogg with “a hot poker.” “Busy working. Preparing,” read the March 26 tweet, which is too vulgar to reprint here in full. An image of it was published by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch [ http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/jamie-allman-lands-in-hot-water-with-tweet-about-hot/article_3b1fe951-d154-5d4f-a0f2-c37ea771d2af.html ] as the remark began to draw more scrutiny in recent days. Spurred on by activists who took to social media to highlight the commentator’s remarks, advertisers including Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, the St. Louis health center Palm Health and local real estate office the Gellman Team, announced they would stop advertising on Allman’s TV program. By Monday night, Allman was gone from the Sinclair station, KDNL. “We have accepted Mr. Allman’s resignation, and his show has been canceled,” Ronn Torossian, a PR executive who is acting as a Sinclair spokesman, said in response to questions sent to the media company by The Washington Post. On Tuesday morning, Allman was absent from “Allman in the Morning,” his daily show on the conservative FM news-talk radio station KFTK. “Jamie’s taking a couple of days off,” a substitute host said, without further explanation, shortly after 6 a.m. [...] https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2018/04/09/sinclair-commentator-resigns-after-threatening-to-sexually-assault-parkland-survivor-david-hogg/
