U.S. House Democrats, led by Representative Robert Garcia, opened an investigation into Russian boxing official Umar Kremlev's possible role and spending related to Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding celebration. Separately, ProPublica reported that a Kremlin-linked businessman helped pay for aspects of the event, raising questions about foreign financial ties to the Trump family. Asked by reporters at the White House whether he would investigate Kremlev's reported financing of the wedding festivities, U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche said he had no plans to do so, responding 'What is there to investigate?' His dismissive response contrasts with the ongoing congressional inquiry into the matter.
