What Is A Non-Disclosure Agreement?
In an effort to keep the goings-on at the White House hush-hush, it’s alleged that President Donald Trump insisted all staff sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). These documents are meant to keep former and current staff members from sharing details of anything and everything that happens during their tenure, but NDAs can’t always keep someone from spilling secrets, especially if such secrets relate to matters benefitting from whistleblower protection.
Caught On Tape: 5 Memorable Hot Mic Moments
President Trump recently admitted that there were “no tapes” of his meeting with former FBI director James Comey. But the president has memorably been “caught on tape” before.
Few will forget the lewd comments he made that day back in 2005 that surfaced during the Presidential campaign. It was a private conversation that became arguably one of the most public hot mic moments ever.
Here are some more memorable “caught on tape " incidents, along with the consequences that accompanied them.
Inside The Most Famous Trump Properties
President Trump has been making frequent visits to his favorite properties outside the White House and Trump Tower, including his ocean-side mansion, Mar-a-Lago in Florida and the Trump Bedminster golf club in New Jersey. For members this can mean excitement but also a brighter spotlight than this wealthy clique might be used to, as when Trump and his cabinet began conducting an emergency foreign policy meeting during a recent dinner at one of the clubs dining areas.
Trump: How Many Properties And How Many Owners?
Donald Trump’s name can be seen in golden letters on buildings around the world. But the President-elect’s real estate empire doesn’t all belong to him. In fact, he owns just a handful of these properties.
Many of the properties that bear the Trump name were developed as part of a licensing agreement; some are owned by Trump in partnership, and others Trump owns some square footage of (such as Trump Tower in NYC).
Truth, Lies and The Internet
It’s finally over!
And as much as many of us would like to forget it ever happened, this election season requires some analysis. One disturbing trend has been that over the course of the election, there have been floods of fake news articles on the Internet. Conspiracy theories, lies, hoaxes and the relentless efforts to check the facts have been everywhere on social media. Some have called out Facebook’s job of moderating bogus news stories as “terrible.” And the endless supply of media to choose from hasn’t broadened our perspectives as much as it’s closed us off into “like-minded social networks.”
5 Famous Trump Supporters
A lot of prominent Trump supporters have renounced their support for the candidate in recent weeks, including “more than a third of female Republican lawmakers.” But here’s a list of five supporters you may not know about.
1. Tom Brady, NFL quarterback
Though the Patriots quarterback and husband to Victoria’s Secret model, Gisele Bündchen hasn’t formally endorsed Trump, the hints suggest he may support him.
In September 2015, a reporter snapped a photo which revealed Trump’s signature “Make America Great Again” hat clearly sitting in Brady’s locker.
How to Make a Genuine Apology
From a never-ending email controversy to “locker room talk”, both of the current presidential candidates (like many politicians before them) have had to apologize for wrongful actions.
What determines how the public will forgive them is how effective the apology is. Some political apologies fail or even exacerbate the original misdeed through insincerity, while others manage to strike a note of sincerity and help voters move on from the controversy.
That’s what political apologies really all come down to: As anthropologist John Silk of UCLA said, “an apology is a way of returning a relationship to where it was before it was damaged.” Political figures put in the hot seat from making mistakes have an immense amount of pressure to admit fault and repair their relationship with voters.
Love & Prenups: Trump's Marital History
There never seemed to be that one special woman in Donald Trump’s life for many years. Trump had focused on building his business empire, but along the way he met his first love. Since then, Trump has navigated three marriages, each with a prenuptial agreement, and two divorces, one of which referred to as “the divorce of the century.” Now that the Republican nominee is in the spotlight to a greater degree than ever before, more attention is coming back on to his marital history.
