The New York Attorney General has launched an
investigation into the Trump Foundation.
The investigation reveals that Trump has
falsely claimed that he is the source of money he has received for his
foundation, noting he has not donated any money to his charity since 2008. Among other egregious activities - $20,000 of
the foundation money was used to buy ‘the love of his life’ - a six-foot-tall
painting of himself! To make matters
worse, the foundation has made political contributions, including a campaign
group for Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, who had threatened to investigate
Trump University.
This comes on the heels of another
investigation by Newsweek which raises
questions about the Trump Organization’s potential serious conflicts of
interests if Trump would became president. The investigation reveals the Trump
Organization consists of a vast financial network that stretches from New York
City to India, Ukraine, China, Brazil, Argentina, Turkey and Russia, where the
organization has strong financial interests to Russian mining, banking and to
real estate billionaire Vladimir Potanin. Potanin has close ties to the Russian
government. This may explain Trump’s adulation for Russian President Vladimir
Putin. Newsweek warns that if Trump is elected president and his vast overseas
network is not shut down or severed from the Trump family, the foreign policy
of the United States of America could well be for sale." Trump’s ‘latest
fan’ – Colin Powell whose hacked email said Trump is a "national
disgrace" and an "international pariah."
