House Oversight Committee Report Reveals Trump Administration Failed to Report Over $300,000 in Gifts from Foreign Governments

A new report released by the House Oversight Committee has revealed that the White House under former President Donald Trump failed to report over 100 gifts given to him and his family by foreign governments between 2017 and 2020.

The report, which was compiled by Democratic staffers on the committee, states that the gifts, which were valued at over $300,000, were never disclosed to the State Department as required by law. Among the gifts were a “larger-than-life-sized” painting gifted to Trump by the president of El Salvador, and golf clubs from the prime minister of Japan valued at more than $7,200.

The report also states that some of the gifts remain unaccounted for, including the painting from El Salvador, which may currently reside at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. Other gifts from foreign officials included those from Chinese President Xi Jinping and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman.

The report comes as the Biden administration is pushing for more transparency and accountability in the White House. The report’s authors have urged the Biden administration to take steps to ensure that all gifts from foreign governments are properly reported in the future.

The report is the latest in a series of revelations about the Trump administration’s lack of transparency and accountability. The report’s authors have called for further investigation into the matter to ensure that all gifts from foreign governments are properly reported and accounted for.
