The Daily Beast’s Sam Stein is on another fishing exhibition, and this time he’s looking for anyone who might have worked in housekeeping at the Ritz Moscow in 2013 and had to clean up some sheets that, perhaps, might have been peed on.
If you worked as a housekeeper at the Ritz Moscow in 2013 and had to clean up sheets after guests stayed in the presidential suite, DM me.

If you followed Twitter like we follow Twitter, you’d know there are way too many people out there with hopes invested in the “pee pee tape” being released. You know, the one that shows Donald Trump paying prostitutes to urinate on the bed where the Obamas once slept. It’s in the Steele dossier, so it must be true, right?
Stein seems to have been inspired by a new story claiming that despite what he has said, Donald Trump did stay overnight in Moscow after the Miss Universe pageant.
Flight records obtained by Bloomberg detail the 45 hours and 43 minutes that Trump spent in Moscow in 2013, though the president told Comey he didn't spend the night there. https://t.co/UqYtGwcktj

NEW: Bloomberg has flight records for Trump's Miss Universe trip to Russia in 2013.
Doesn't match up with his claim that he never stayed overnight.https://t.co/JmuGAmFw45

Check out this amazing research from Bloomberg:
At this point, the flight records support a narrow slice of what Trump told Comey: On the night of the pageant itself, the plane Trump was said to be using didn’t fully overnight in Russia. Ruffin’s Bombardier took off from Vnukovo airport at 3:58 a.m. Moscow time, the records show.
When the jet touched down at Newark Liberty International Airport, just outside New York City, it was still Sunday morning — 4:11 a.m. local time. That evening, Trump tweeted about his return, “I just got back from Russia-learned lots & lots. Moscow is a very interesting and amazing place!”
Judd Legum of ThinkProgress is pretty excited by the news:
Flight logs put more pressure on Trump to come clean about what happened at the Moscow Ritz https://t.co/wI2W8UarUz

University of New Hampshire law professor Seth Abramson was pretty jazzed about the flight records being released:
(THREAD) A U.S. media outlet has FINALLY published in-depth reporting on the story I began researching 15 months ago: the Steele dossier's "kompromat" allegation. I break down the news and add significant context to the story in this thread—hope you'll RT. https://t.co/Gd1wgSEa1D

Abramson actually posted a 30-part thread, which we’re not going to get into here, except for the juiciest bits.
16/ So as of Bloomberg's story today, every piece of circumstantial evidence held by investigators is inculpatory, and indeed suggests that Putin—who is widely known to videotape important figures in hotels as a blackmail and/or recruitment technique—did *exactly* that to Trump.
— Seth Abramson (@SethAbramson) April 23, 2018
17/ I spent a year compiling all this information from various sources—both US and international—as well as by making connections between previously published reports that had been missed by the authors of those reports. Now, thankfully, Bloomberg has officially entered the fray.
— Seth Abramson (@SethAbramson) April 23, 2018
30/ So now you know why Trump is *terrified* of the Comey Memos; why he's lied repeatedly about what happened in Moscow in 2013; and why this new reporting by Bloomberg *could* help form the foundation for another impeachable-offense referral by Mueller to Rosenstein at DOJ. /end

So, what happened in Moscow in 2013? Won’t someone on the housekeeping staff come forward and blow this thing wide open?
Trump never said he didn't spend the night in Moscow during the 2013 Ms. Universe visit. Trump said he never spent the "night in a hotel room" in Moscow, as claimed by the nonsense in the Clinton-Steele Dossier. A substantive difference. https://t.co/DnZmMA6IJV

You are incorrect. He told him that he flew in and out on the same day. Stop with the lies.

?TDS is strong with this guy. Read the article knucklehead. After the Ms. Universe Pagent there was an after-party at 1:00am. Plane departed airport 3:58am (a few hours later.) https://t.co/zJU2262OoQ pic.twitter.com/V96sWHSCRd
