http://www.wtae.com/politics/ny-attorney-general-has-inquired-into-trump-foundation-practices/41652374New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman's office is investigating Donald Trump's charitable foundation "to make sure it's complying with the laws governing charities in New York," he said Tuesday.
"We've inquired into it," Schneiderman told CNN's Jake Tapper on "The Lead." "We've had correspondence with them. I didn't make a big deal out of it or hold a press conference. But we have been looking into the Trump Foundation to make sure it's complying with the laws governing charities in New York."
The inquiry comes amid a series of reports by The Washington Post that Trump spent money from his charity, The Donald J. Trump Foundation, on himself, used it to recycle others' contributions to make them appear to have come from him and hasn't given to the foundation since 2008....
A source familiar with Schneiderman's actions said the New York attorney general's office is conducting "an inquiry into the Trump Foundation about troubling transactions that we've seen."
