White House Investigates Alleged Scheme Promising ‘Access to POTUS’ for Millions
- On Monday, President Donald Trump ordered White House Counsel Will Scharf to investigate Ric Grenell following allegations from Alina Habba that Grenell misappropriated a promised Kennedy Center donation.
- A May 3, 2025, text message allegedly shows Grenell promising Turhan Mildon VIP access and proximity to POTUS in exchange for a donation that administration officials identify as key evidence.
- Mildon allegedly wired $17.6 million to Texas Armament & Technology at Grenell's direction, with roughly $5.6 million slated for the Kennedy Center, though the institution reported receiving no funds.
- Scharf is verifying the text's digital footprint while Grenell calls the accusations "absurd," denying he directed funds or received payments from Mildon.
- Described by insiders as a "MAGA blood feud," the situation involves $17.6 million linked to the Congolese government, raising questions about whether Grenell abused the president's trust.
