SHE GOT $3.5MM OF THAT $26MM PAYOFF?

Where are all of the receipts for that $26MM? It is breaking now that even the Trumps were not aware that Melanie's.... err... Millie's... err.. Melinda's... SHIT! whatever that gal's name is, was paid $26MM for that mess of a Trump inaugural.

Trump inaugural committee paid $26 million to friend of first lady Melania Trump. Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a New York party planner and friend of first lady Melania Trump, was paid $26 million by the Trump inaugural committee. The payment was disclosed in an IRS form that revealed the committee spent more than $90 million on events surrounding the 2017 inauguration of Donald Trump. The committee gave $5 million to charity, out of a total $106 million raised.

The company was just set up ONE MONTH before the inauguration!

Bullshit.....The Trumps set that payment off so they get it back themselves.....the narrative they are spinning is only because it became public and people are questioning why.

Prior to beginning his event and interior design career, Monn worked in the jewelry business for 12 years. In 2003, Gayfryd Steinberg hired Monn as the event planner and designer for the Library Lions Gala at the New York Public Library's main campus.

What “charity”?

I really should figure out how to cash in on this “charity” racket. Who even benefits from all those foundations, huh?

Yeah. Exactly.

Yeah the girlfriend got $27 million for pretty much nothing. Who really got that money? The girlfriend, Melanie or Trump and why will no one investigate.

My god! The swamp Trump is creating! The grifting and graft, no one has ever seen the like. Why does no one put an end to it?

The filings only came out a week or so ago. In fact Rachel Maddow and others hounded them for months. They stalled and stalled and put out this craptastic filing.

[quote]The committee had raised nearly $107 million for the lavish event, an unprecedented inaugural price tag nearly twice that of President Barack Obama’s inauguration in 2009. But some of those involved in or aware of the committee’s work told the AP last September that the orchestration of the event was marred by last-minute decisions, staffing turnover and little financial oversight.

I bet there WAS "little financial oversight"!

There have been MANY scandals about graft in his cabinet and all around him, and repercussions. Its just that the Republicans won't talk about it, nor will Fox. Meuller is focusing on graft. They are going to get Trump and Trump family sooner or later for money laundering. Thats what Trump is all about, the basis of his rebuilt "fortune".

I had always thought that the inaugurations were paid for by the taxpayers since the new (or re-elected) President is a public employee. I guess not.
