Attorney General William Barr has booked a 200-person holiday party at President Trump’s D.C. hotel that will cost an estimated $30,000, The Washington Post reported Tuesday.
The outlet obtained a copy of a contract signed by Barr for a “Family Holiday Party†in the hotel’s Presidential Ballroom on Dec. 8.
Barr is paying for the venue himself.
He chose the Trump Hotel only after other hotels, including the Willard and the Mayflower, were booked, a Department of Justice (DOJ) official told the Post.
Barr reportedly holds the party annually, although this is the first time it will be at a Trump hotel.
