Also, as we approach 100 days of President Trump: thanks to the readers who have come with us, and the sources who have helped us reveal the workings of this White House. We continue to report without fear or favor. No one is telling us what to write. You can judge for yourself @washingtonpost.com.

We have no need for billionaires with dodgy ethics and weak walls between themselves and the media they own to succeed -- while angling for government contracts from the most corrupt administration in US history. The model needs to fail.
