I'm Philip Rucker and the White House Bureau Chief at the Washington Post.

Every day I'm watching what President Trump does, I'm asking questions of his advisors,

I'm trying to get to the bottom of why he's doing what he's doing and what the consequences are

for our country. And our goal every day is to really unearth new facts, to bring light to things

that are hidden in our government. When I publish a big scoop, we get immediate feedback, positive,

negative, but the people who are supportive and encouraging, they want to know what they can do

to help and to propel us forward. And I say it's really simple. Just subscribe, be a reader of

the Washington Post and you can do that today at postreports.com slash subscribe.

Mike Bloomberg has more money than God.

He's opening his wallet in nationwide advertising.
