Weekly recap: Nigerian pols, T-Mobile execs, Indoneisan checks

Welcome to 1100 Pennsylvania, a newsletter devoted to President Donald Trump’s Trump International Hotel Washington, D.C. (and his other companies). President Trump, of course, still owns his businesses and can profit from them.

Correction

Yesterday’s 1100 Pennsylvania inaccurately reported that Atiku Abubakar, who was staying at the Trump Hotel D.C., was one of just two candidates to be the president of Nigeria. There are actually many candidates; Abubakar and the incumbent, President Muhammadu Buhari, however, are the only two that appear to have a realistic chance of winning. We regret the error.
