Republican senator calls for probe into Trump family’s financial dealings
‘Republicans nearly wore out the subpoena machine investigating Hunter Biden’s foreign relationships. We should not unplug it now,’ Sen. John Curtis wrote on X
Republican Senator John Curtis has urged for a probe into allegations that President Donald Trump's family is profiting from his role as president. The senator wrote a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee, calling for investigations into businesses owned by Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., and payments made by a Russian oligarch for Trump Jr.'s wedding celebrations in the Bahamas.
This request comes after congressional Democrats launched their own investigation into the wedding payments. Curtis expressed concern that any perception of family members exploiting their position could undermine trust in the government. While a decision on the investigation is not expected until after the November 3 midterm elections, Curtis' letter marks the latest effort by prominent Republicans to distance themselves from the unpopular president as they prepare for the midterms.
