The Washington Post filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit on Friday against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Department of State, seeking records regarding U.S. Secret Service spending at Trump family-owned properties.

“The requested records will let the public see ‘what their government [has been] up to,’ with respect to how much businesses owned by the President or his family, including the Trump Organization, have charged the [DHS and State Department] – and thus, American taxpayers – to house the officials and agents who accompany and protect the President when he travels,” the lawsuit notes.

Between September 11, 2018 and March 6, 2020, the Post submitted 19 separate FOIA requests to DHS and the State Department regarding payments “made to the Trump Organization or related entities” by the Secret Service.

“To date, DHS has not produced a single record responsive to any of the DHS Requests,” the lawsuit notes. “To date, the State Department has not produced a single record responsive to any of the State Department Requests.”...............
