The first page in the printed packet disclosed the sequence of meetings for Aug 15, including the specific names of the rooms inside the base in Anchorage where they would take place. It also revealed #Trump intended to give #Putin a ceremonial present.
"POTUS to President Putin," the document states, "American Bald Eagle Desk Statue."
Pages 2 through 5 listed the names & phone numbers of 3 #US staff members as well as the names of 13 US & #Russia state leaders.

"POTUS to President Putin," the document states, "American Bald Eagle Desk Statue."
Pages 2 through 5 listed the names & phone numbers of 3 #US staff members as well as the names of 13 US & #Russia state leaders.
The list provided phonetic pronouncers for all the Russian men expected at the summit, including "Mr. President POO-tihn."
Pages 6 & 7 in the packet described how lunch at the summit would be served, and for whom. A menu included in the documents indicated that the luncheon was to be held "in honor of his excellency Vladimir Putin."
A seating chart shows that #Putin & #Trump were supposed to sit across from each other during the luncheon. Trump would be flanked by: Secy of State #MarcoRubio, Secy of #Defense#PeteHegseth & WH Chief of Staff #SusieWiles to his right, & Secy of #Treasury#ScottBessent, Secy of #Commerce#HowardLutnick & Special Envoy for Peace Missions #SteveWitkoff to his left. Putin would be seated next to his Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sergey #Lavrov, & his Aide for Foreign Policy, Yuri #Ushakov.
Jon Michaels, a professor of #law at UCLA who lectures about #NationalSecurity, said that the documents found in the printer of the Alaskan hotel reveal a lapse in professional judgement in preparation for a high-stakes meeting.
"It strikes me as further evidence of the sloppiness & the incompetence of the administration," said Michaels. "You just don't leave things in printers. It's that simple." [And you don’t use the hotel’s public business center FFS!]
