Trump demands brevity in briefings, refusing to engage with long-winded briefers like McMaster.

"He used complete sentences!” says a source.

Trump got so exasperated with McMaster he’d look at other papers while McMaster spoke—his view of an alpha move. https://www.axios.com/newsletters/axios-am-d70e081e-9e3b-434c-8f4f-4f1199b4e266.html?chunk=0#story0 …

Trump on NBA champion visiting the White House (LeBron and Curry both said their teams wouldn't visit): "I didn't invite LeBron James, and I didn't invite Steph Curry. We're not gonna invite either team. But we have other teams that are coming."

Scott Pruitt has quietly announced the EPA will not consider the health risks and impacts of asbestos already in the environment when evaluating the dangers associated with it, according to Newsweek.

Trump has called asbestos "100% safe, once applied." http://www.newsweek.com/pruitt-trump-asbestos-chemicals-trump-962703?amp=1&__twitter_impression=true …

Pennsylvania steelworkers who voted for Trump fear his trade war will cost them their jobs, NPR reports.

How ironic it will be if the journalistic cliche of reporting on Trump voters in the Rust Belt turns on him, featuring tales of job losses.

Sens. Warren, Wyden, and Bennet are calling for an investigation into Trump’s comments on the jobs report to identify if anyone obtained or used "nonpublic market-moving information for private gain.”

Letters were sent to the BLS, SEC, CFTC, and WH Council of Economic Advisers.
