Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner are faced with new allegations.
Nevertheless, they apparently had leisure for the purchase of a million dollar property on the island "Billionaire's Bunker".
The list of allegations and charges against
Ivanka Trump
and her husband
Jared Kushner is
growing steadily.
There was particular outrage that funds from
Corona emergency aid
in the millions are said to have flowed to the “Trump Organization” and the “Kushner Company”.
Jared Kushner's
attorney
now even saw himself forced to hire a lawyer.
Washington DC -
Ivanka Trump
had to appear in court
again
.
In the past week she had to answer various questions about the allegation of financial fraud.
On
, the daughter of
US President Donald Trump * was
very outraged: On December 3, she tweeted that she had been questioned for over five hours - the questioning was a "waste of taxpayers' money".

The
Washington Post
reports that Karl Racine, Attorney General of the Washington District of Columbia, says the facts are clear.
He said
Ivanka Trump
poured public funds into the Trump family business and thereby committed a
crime
.
During her father
Donald Trump's
inauguration celebrations
in 2016, she billed $ 3.8 million for the Trump Hotel in Washington.
With these sums it is said to have far exceeded the estimates of other luxury hotels in the capital.
Always new scandals: Jared Kushner's lawyer takes himself a lawyer
Various emails document remarkably high rental costs for conference rooms in the Trump Hotel and possibly excessive minimum amounts for food and drinks.
Racine emphasized that there are various laws that explicitly forbid charitable associations such as the Presidential Inaugural Committee such lavish spending.
However, Ivanka Trump's lawyers deny all allegations.
Ivanka Trump's husband Jared Kushner has also suffered negative headlines in recent days.
Kushner's attorney, Abbe Lowell, fears being
involved
in a
bribe
scandal
in the context of possible
presidential
pardons
.
The lawyer is said to have asked the late real estate billionaire Sanford Diller to help him with a donation for a presidential pardon in the case of Hugh Baras.

Hugh Baras is serving currently because of
tax fraud
, a
prison sentence
of 30 months.
Kushner's attorney apparently found himself compelled to call on a lawyer to help.
He is now represented in court by the lawyer Reid Weingarten.
Weingarten has already addressed the public.
He stressed that there was no question of bribery - only some documents might need to be explained.
That doesn't seem to be the only problem for
Jared Kushner right now
.
Lists of the recipients of
Corona aid
through
state funds also
cause outrage.
The “Trump Organization” and the family business “Kushner Companies” have received 25 loans totaling $ 3.65 million.
The Corona emergency aid program “Paycheck Protection Program” was actually intended for small and medium-sized companies.
There were correspondingly outraged reactions in the American
media
and
social networks
.
Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner: million dollar property in the "Billionaire's Bunker"
The President's press spokeswoman, Kayleigh McEnany, is also said to have benefited from the Corona emergency aid program.
Records show that a family company received $ 2 million in emergency government aid.
So far, the Trumps and their circle have not made any statement on these allegations.
However, despite the many allegations,
Ivanka Trump
and her husband
Jared Kushner
do not seem to be upset.
As
PageSix
reports, the couple has just bought a property worth more than 30 million dollars.
The property is located on the island of “
Indian Creek
”, which belongs to Miami.
The private island is also known as the "
Billionaire's Bunker
" and is considered one of the safest places in Florida - after all, 13 police officers are responsible for only 29 houses.
Trump in Georgia: death threats against foreign ministers go uncommented
The couple has apparently decided on a property that
is said to have
previously belonged to the Spanish
pop star Julio Iglesias
.
The property reportedly cost $ 31.8 million.
With the purchase of the property on the island, the couple may shape their future after moving out of the White House.
The Trump family is apparently drawn to
Florida
.
Donald Trump wants to
spend
his retirement at the
Mar-a-Lago Club
, which is just over an hour from the island of "Indian Creek".
Jared Kushner's younger brother Joshua also lives nearby with his wife: They live in a property in
Miami
.
The current
President Donald Trump *
was most recently busy
supporting
Republican
candidates
for the upcoming
Senate elections
in January 2021
at campaign events in the state of
Georgia
.
Trump has not yet commented on the death threats against Georgia's Foreign Minister Brad Raffensperger.
These are in the context of
Joe Biden's
declaration
as the election winner of the state of Georgia.
After two recounts, Raffensperger, who is himself a Republican, declared Biden the winner.
Since then, he and his family have had to be accompanied by bodyguards at all times.
