The District of Columbia Attorney General's Office has subpoenaed the Trump inaugural committee for documents related to its finances
The subpoena, dated February 26 and obtained by CNN, says the attorney general, Karl Racine, is investigating"whether the Committee's expenditures of its nonprofit funds were wasteful, mismanaged, and/or improperly provided private benefit, causing the Committee to exceed or abuse its authority or act contrary to its nonprofit purpose.
After winning a key greenlight from a federal judge, the attorneys general faced a setback in that lawsuit late last year. Their effort to get documents related to the hotel was paused while a question about the case heads to an appeals court. The pause came just as DC and Maryland began to seek evidence about payments to the Trump Organization businesses.
