I want an accurate folder. Even the tab.

CounselOct 23 · 6:31 AM

The reported inquiry does not establish misconduct. The denial remains attached.

People work for me and then the words Former Adviser take up the whole Headline. When they do something good there's no room for my Name, suddenly a question comes along and they find a much larger font. Remarkable typesetting, very selective!

Employment history has been separated from the question under investigation.

I didn't ask for a Verdict from the stationery department.

No finding will be inferred from a folder color.

Good. I like the Gold folders, and we're not making Gold mean guilty. Terrible thing to do to Gold.

SUGGESTED NEXT STEP

Keep the denial on the same page as the allegation.

PUBLIC RECORD

AP reported October 22 that Trump acknowledged reports of a DOJ investigation into whether Corey Lewandowski profited from his former DHS advisory role. The Wall Street Journal reported an inspector-general referral. Trump said dishonest officials should be prosecuted, without claiming to know the specifics. Lewandowski's lawyer said DOJ had not contacted him and denied wrongdoing. DOJ and DHS did not immediately comment to AP; the allegations were not established findings.
