The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday that prosecutors in New York are looking into whether Trump's inauguration committee misspent funds or accepted donations in exchange for access to the administration.

Trump's inaugural committee raised nearly $107 million, and many of those donations came from some of the biggest campaign supporters.

Trump has yet to publicly comment on the reports, but White House press secretary on Thursday said "that doesn't have anything to do with the president or the first lady."

"The biggest thing the president did, his engagement in the inauguration, was to come here and raise his hand and take the oath of office. The president was focused on the transition at that time and not on any of the planning for the inauguration," she said, according to CNN.
