Public records reveal Trump’s $157k holiday cash gifts to four White House aides

Public records show Donald Trump gave $157,000 in holiday cash gifts to four White House staffers, including $45,000 to Natalie Harp and $22,000 to longtime aide Walt Nauta, with two others also receiving gifts. The White House says the gifts were personal and not tied to official duties, and they’re described as permissible by law. Ethics experts warn such gifts could raise concerns about conflicts of interest, and the administration did not explain why the remaining listed staff did not receive gifts.
