Prosecutors are looking into financial crimes committed in connection with Trump's inauguration

A former Melania Trump friend and adviser said she is working with multiple prosecutors on investigations into potential financial crimes committed in connection with President Trump’s inauguration. `

"I'm working with three different prosecutors, and it's taken over my life," Stephanie Winston Wolkoff told ABC News in an interview Monday, referring to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York and local attorneys general in New Jersey and Washington, D.C.

Winston Wolkoff said she considered Melania Trump a close friend for more than a decade. She served as a leading organizer for President Trump’s inauguration and later as an adviser to Melania Trump.

In her forthcoming book she writes she was made into “the cover girl for the inauguration shenanigans,” according to ABC News.

*This is part of a fitting biblical quote found in Matthew 7, verses 7 and 8.
full quote: "7Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.…"

Hasn't the Inauguration been under investigation since the Inauguration?

You know the $25 million "paid" to "Mybalogne" Melania's personal friend and
All of the ILLEGAL foreign contributions?

So today, August 31, 2020, somebody has sudden, the unbelievable brain fart
to start questioning the Inauguration?

Must be a "walked" republican just now discovering the early gruesome
sins of his Führer Trump. Sig Heil.
