Trump's Inauguration Paid Trump's Company -- With Ivanka in the Middle
Here are some snippets, with the link at the bottom to the story.
It seems that Ivanka Trump will definitely be needing a good lawyer in the very near future, if not already. I cannot state how happy I am that the light is seemingly being shown on the dark corners of this Crime Family. I say that in the way a narcissistic person would think that about themselves being elected as the leader of the free world and combining it with his criminal family enterprise. Trump has long skirted the law, shady casino dealings, racist home lending practices, and instead of honoring the absolute honor it should be to lead this country he has treated the office as nothing more but a pad to his Criminal Family. It saddens me, as someone who has had the absolute honor leading men and women in life or death situations, see somebody sully the office and what leadership actually is supposed to mean.
During the planning, Ivanka Trump, the president-elect’s eldest daughter and a senior executive with the Trump Organization, was involved in negotiating the price the hotel charged the 58th Presidential Inaugural Committee for venue rentals. A top inaugural planner emailed Ivanka and others at the company to “express my concern” that the hotel was overcharging for its event spaces, worrying of what would happen “when this is audited.”
If the Trump hotel charged more than the going rate for the venues, it could violate tax law. The inaugural committee’s payments to the Trump Organization and Ivanka Trump’s role have not been previously reported or disclosed in public filings.
“The fact that the inaugural committee did business with the Trump Organization raises huge ethical questions about the potential for undue enrichment,” said Marcus Owens, the former head of the division of the Internal Revenue Service that oversees nonprofits.
