#tbt Before twitter exposed his lies, Marc's father Al Levin produced a documentary exposing the crooked developments of NYC's most infamous real estate heir. Trump successfully suppressed the film for 25 years, until 2015 when it was finally released online. Get to know the mob connections, endless lawsuits, backroom deals, schemes, and tricks, that set the course for what we see from the White House today in "Trump: What's the Deal?"

Episode 5 “Honeymoon’s Over” - For the faculty, the realities of dealing with students suffering from trauma hits hard. The new episode is up now on @quibi!
From producer Jackson Devereux, who filmed this difficult moment: That afternoon, Dae was very unsettled and combative. I was sitting with Mrs. Tozzi and a small circle of her students, filming the escalating situation alone. I was lucky to pan the camera right as Dae locked herself in the locker. This was the first incident that helped us understand what teachers and students are dealing with emotionally. While it’s difficult to film vulnerable moments while respecting the kids’ personal space, I reassured myself it was important to communicate the level of trauma these kids are bringing to school. After this day, we decided to follow her journey over the school year, and got to know her and her beautiful family. Watch episode 4 to meet her yourself and see her story unfold on @quibi.
