Trump says Don Jr. repaid Putin-connected oligarch who bankrolled his wedding

President Trump claimed his son Donald Trump Jr. paid back Umar Kremlev, a Putin-connected Russian oligarch who allegedly bankrolled Don Jr.’s Bahamas wedding, after a ProPublica report detailed lavish expenses such as a private island rental and a $70,000 fireworks display. Democrats, including Rep. Robert Garcia, pressed for details on any ties between the Trump family and Kremlev, while Trump Jr. and his wife defended the oligarch as a personal friend and described the gift as non-political, with Trump arguing that wedding parties and repayments are common.
