Former first lady Melania Trump blasted dream killers in the media following reporting on an investigation launched by Florida officials into a fundraiser of hers.
Tickets for a charitable high tea event, set to take place in April, are being sold by Trump, and the profits are supposedly going toward the Fostering the Future initiative of her "Be Best" endeavor, The New York Times reported Saturday.
But neither Fostering the Future or "Be Best" are registered charities in Florida, the newspaper noted. Florida officials told the Times that the Consumer Services Division was conducting a probe into the fundraiser.
Despite my actions, the press continues to publish inaccurate, misleading, and outright incorrect articles about my work. The media has created a narrative whereby I am trying to act in an illegal or unethical manner, Trump said in a statement on Friday.

(10,252 posts)this scandal has been in the news for a while now. Doesn't she have any rich lady girl friends, who could clue her into how these charities are done? I doubt that she has any true friends, rich or otherwise.
