Trump's properties made $238,000 on Secret Service bills from Ivanka, Eric, and Donald Jr.'s visits

As of The Washington Post's most recent count, the U.S. government has spent $1.2 million at Trump's properties around the world throughout his presidency. At least $238,000 of that stemmed from Trump's adult children's visits as they requested Secret Service protection, the Post reports via Secret Service records.
