Mar-A-Lago Is Looking To Hire 91 Foreign Workers This Year M ar-a-Lago, former president Donald Trump’s private club-cum-legal residence at the center of an investigation into his handling of classified government documents, has relied on temporary foreign workers to keep the sprawling estate humming. Last year, the Trump Organization sought 87 foreign workers for the Palm Beach property, up from 78 a few years earlier. It’s not clear how many were hired, but no doubt at least some likely had backstage access to political theater (maybe even scraps of presidential records floating in toilets ).

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin People betting that the U.S. dollar’s slide will continue might want to pay more attention to what’s afoot in Asia. Or, perhaps more to the point, what’s not afoot here. Take China, where officials have been hinting all year about a pivot away from giant growth-killing “ zero Covid ” lockdowns. Myriad times, chatter about a more “dynamic” approach prioritizing vaccinations and testing over shutting down major metropolises excited investors. Then, new lockdowns ended the party. This pattern played out again this week in Hainan , an island province dependent on tourism. And for investors, it was a reminder that the forces behind the near-zero growth China produced in the April-June quarter—just 0.4% year-on-year—might not be an aberration.
