How Democrats Plan to Investigate Trump’s Ballroom
Huffman says that if Democrats win the House the committee would seek records showing how the projects were approved, how much public money had been spent, and whether donors received or sought favorable treatment from the Administration. The private financing, he says, would receive particular scrutiny. He wants to know who donated, how much they contributed and what business they had before the federal government.
Last year, the White House released a partial list of ballroom donors, including crypto and tech billionaires and defense contractors, but has not revealed how much each donor is giving.
Huffman also questioned why money and Park Service personnel were being concentrated in Washington while the Administration was cutting staff and services elsewhere in the national park system.
“You could look at it and say, well, you know, why die on that hill? These are just little pet projects of Donald Trump,” Huffman says. “But this is real money that is being misprioritized. It’s an abuse of the public trust.”
