House Democrats probe use of taxpayer money at Trump hotels
House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Elijah Cummings, D-Md., said that his panel "does not believe that U.S. taxpayer funds should be used to personally enrich President Trump, his family, and his companies."
"We have been focused on the Mueller report and that is a very small part of the overall picture," said Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin, a member of the Judiciary panel. "We must get America focused on the ongoing violations against basic Constitutional principles."
In addition to looking at Trump’s use of his properties, two House committees are continuing to investigate his relationship with banks with which he did business. And the Judiciary panel is also expected to investigate hush money payments that Trump paid to kill potentially embarrassing stories.

Trump continues to be dogged by investigations. But, nothing seems to stick. Teflon Trump?
