Just by looking at it, they seem to be probing possible violations of the Emoluments clause
 
So Crooked Hillary's Insurance Policy using Mueller's Witch Hunt has officially dropped the Russia Hoax and is now trying to see if President Trumps Washington DC Hotel made a couple of bucks through his influence? Very sad. Pathetic actually. :p That said, Mueller's crooks could easily obtain all customer credit card charges that were processed through the hotel.
 
Not sure if this is part of the Mueller investigation or not.

Keep in mind that the reason Trump’s name is on the subpoena MAY be because he’s President and records of the Executive Branch are being subpoenaed. Dunno. Good to see his name on a subpoena though. We’ll probably see a lot more of them. LOL

Would it have been good to see Obama's name on a subpoena?

He did commit a crime.
 
Where is the link?

Oh, never mind! There is so much shit wrong on that half a page that anyone with an IQ above Nancy Pelosi knows it is wrong.

How can the city of Washing DC sue in a Maryland court?
It's the District of Maryland federal court, dude.

Go back to the Bush slobber festivals and brag about how many people you've put on ignore.

"District of Columbia" as plaintiff?...By whose authority?
By who's motherfucking authority, indeed...
Yeah...Which is why it seems fake to me.
You didn't answer the question, young blood
The corporate entity known as "District of Columbia" has Donald J Trump as its CEO...His DOJ is the agent authorized to file legal actions in the name of the corporation.

It's a goddamn fake.

It's NOT Mueller, it is the State of Maryland that is suing him for breaking the emoluments clause of the constitution

How can the State of Maryland file as plaintiff under the auspices of "District of Columbia"?

Clue: They can't.....The document in the OP is likely a fake.
 
An interesting article.
Five Things You Didn’t Know About the Emoluments Clause

4. It might not even apply to the president.
Even though the DOJ letter regarding Obama’s acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize said the president “surely” holds an “office of profit or trust” under the United States, not all constitutional scholars agree.

University of Chicago Law School constitutional law professor William Baudeexplains in The Journal of Things We Like (Lots) that “office” and “officer” may not have a static meaning in the Constitution. He points to the emoluments clause as an example.

“President George Washington publicly received gifts from French officials (the key to the French Bastille and a portrait of Louis XVI) without asking Congress’s permission,” Baude wrote. “This suggests that he was not subject to the Foreign Emoluments Clause, which applies to a ‘Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under [the United States].’ ”

He also notes that “in 1792, Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton was instructed to report to the Senate ‘every’ person holding ‘office … under the United States’ and their salaries. His ninety-page list included every appointed officer, including those in the legislature, such as the Clerk of the House, but excluded elected officials such as the President, Vice President, and members of Congress.”

“This suggests that some definitions of office will turn on whether one is elected rather than which branch one is in,” Baude wrote.
