Democrats Ask Trump If He Illegally Took $10 Million

“Democratic leaders on the House Oversight Committee released a letter Tuesday asking former president Donald Trump if he ever illegally received money from the government of Egypt, and whether money from Cairo played a role in a $10 million infusion into his 2016 run for president,” the Washington Post reports.

“Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the ranking Democrat on the committee, and Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), the top Democrat on its subcommittee for national security, the border and foreign affairs, wrote to Trump that they were making the request as a result of a Washington Post article published last month. The article revealed details of a secret Justice Department investigation during Trump’s presidency into whether he took an illegal campaign contribution from Egypt.”
