The Trump Organization is eyeing a possible reclamation of the Old Post Office building that is leased as a Waldorf Astoria hotel in Washington, D.C.

According to the New York Post, citing three sources familiar with the matter, the Trump Organization is exploring various possibilities, including a licensing arrangement or a purchase of the lease for the historic Old Post Office building.

The building is 125 years old and government-owned.

“Our family has saved the hotel once. If asked, we would save it again,” Eric Trump told the outlet.

According to the outlet, sources said President-elect Trump is considering hospitality investments in the D.C. region, though there has been no formal communication with Waldorf Astoria regarding a potential deal.

According to sources, the final decision about whether the incoming president’s organization will seek to reclaim the property or pursue a licensing agreement remains pending.

Trump sold the Washington, D.C., hotel’s lease in May 2022 to a Miami-based investor fund.

The Trump Organization won rights to fix the building and run it as a hotel in exchange for paying the annual rent and a cut of profit upon a sale.

The incoming president’s organization transformed the historic building into a 275-room luxury hotel.

Fox News Digital has reached out to a Hilton Group for comment.

A Washington, D.C.-area restaurant server has been fired after she spoke out about possibly refusing service to incoming Trump administration officials.

“I personally would refuse to serve any person in office who I know of as being a sex trafficker or trying to deport millions of people,” Suzannah Van Rooy, a server at Beuchert’s Saloon on Capitol Hill, told the Washingtonian this week. “It’s not, ‘Oh, we hate Republicans.’ It’s that this person has moral convictions that are strongly opposed to mine, and I don’t feel comfortable serving them.”

Her remarks were part of a report about whether there would be local “resistance” to certain Trump figures when they were in public settings again after several high-profile incidents during his first term. They included then-aide Sarah Huckabee Sanders being ejected from a restaurant in Lexington, Va., and protesters swarming then-Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen at a D.C. Mexican establishment.

“People were a lot more motivated the first time around to do those kinds of shows of passion. This time around, there is kind of a sense of defeat and acceptance,” Van Rooy said, according to the Washingtonian. “But I hope that people still do stand up to this administration and tell them their thoughts on their misbehavior.”

According to a review of her LinkedIn page on Friday, which has since been taken down, Van Rooy listed her duties as doing daily operations, messaging strategies for the restaurant, developing relationships with influencers, and managing in-house events for political figures and VIPs. 

Her page also said she worked as an organizer for Texas Democrat Beto O’Rourke’s failed run for governor in 2022.

Beuchert’s Saloon told Fox News Digital that Van Rooy’s remarks were “reprehensible” and she had been fired for violating their “zero-tolerance policy on discrimination.”

Beuchert’s said the former employee was a part-time server and not a manager. It put out statements on social media condemning her remarks after being made aware of them on Thursday.

“Recent comments made by a member of staff who had no authority to speak on behalf of our entire restaurant have been, quite rightly, flagged as inappropriate, hostile, intolerant, and unacceptable. This staff member does NOT speak for us as a restaurant,” Beuchert’s initial statement on Thursday said.

“After the inauguration in January, we will begin serving our fourth administration as a neighborhood restaurant on Capitol Hill open to all and welcoming to all. We have always been a safe space for all. Everyone, especially anyone who feels prejudged or misunderstood, will always find friendly service and a sympathetic ear at Beuchert’s Saloon. Again, we deeply apologize for the comments made by a member of staff. They are NOT representative of our restaurant and do not reflect how we operate as a business, and how proud we are to be a gathering place on Capitol Hill.”

By Friday, the restaurant said it had decided to dismiss the server because of this incident, calling her comments and subsequent behavior, “unforgivable.” It also said she had signed on to the restaurant’s social media accounts to speak on behalf of the restaurant without authorization.

“Not only do Ms. Van Rooy’s comments clearly violate our zero-tolerance policy on discrimination, but her decision to sign into our social media accounts in the middle of the night to post her own rhetoric in wildly offensive responses to comments is a further breach of conduct and protocol. She has no authority to speak on our behalf, and her comments do not reflect the positions of over twenty other people who make up our staff,” the Friday statement read.

“For these reasons as well as the sheer dismay and disgust we feel at her unforgivable behavior, Ms. Van Rooy has been dismissed immediately. Our staff and families (many of whom are personally offended by Ms. Van Rooy’s comments about them) are still reeling from what Ms. Van Rooy said and did, and we as a restaurant are simply horrified to be associated with base prejudice.”

The comment went on to urge the entire restaurant not to be blamed for her rogue actions.

“We are still the same restaurant known for its warm service and friendly staff, and hope you will all visit us soon. We look forward to serving you. All of you,” it wrote.

Every so often during the offseason, a familiar name emerges at the top of the headlines, evoking memories for fans. For those who have followed the Cleveland Guardians for the last few seasons, that recently happened.

Konnor Pilkington, who used to pitch in the organization, signed a minor league deal with the Washington Nationals for the 2024 season.

Pilkington, or the “Pilk-Man” as he became known, was acquired from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for INF Cesar Hernandez at the 2021 trade deadline.

He made his major league debut on April 4 of the next season and spent the next year alternating between the minor league and big league rosters.

Pilkington appeared in 16 games, starting 11 of those, for the Guardians during his tenure with the team. In those games, he posted a 3.75 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, and an ERA+ of 102.

Cleveland typically called on Pilkington to make spot starts here and there and come into the game as a long reliever in a blowout. Pilkington knew exactly what his job was and executed it to perfection.

However, the Guardians designated him for assignment on April 26, 2023, and traded him to the Arizona Diamondbacks a few days later.

The Nationals are still trying to establish their rotation for the 2025 season. If Pilkington impresses during spring training and the minors, he could become an option for the Nats.

He’s still only 27 years old and has shown some promise at the big-league level, even if that is in just an innings-eating role. Perhaps Pilkington will get another major league opportunity with Washington.
