‘Shocking Pattern of Illegality’
The Trump family has just agreed to shut down its Trump Foundation amid charges of “willful self dealing” and coordinating with the Trump presidential campaign, according to the New York Attorney General.
MSNBC’s Ari Melber on air compared the Trump Foundation to “an illegal slush fund.”
The New York Attorney General states the Trump Foundation “has signed a stipulation agreeing to dissolve under judicial supervision, with review and approval by the attorney general of proposed recipient charities of the foundation’s remaining assets,” NBC News reports.
“Our petition detailed a shocking pattern of illegality involving the Trump Foundation – including unlawful coordination with the Trump presidential campaign, repeated and willful self-dealing, and much more,” the AG added.
