CONFLICT OF INTEREST/ETHICS/STATE/TRUMP FAMILY/IVANKA: “An official State Department Twitter account retweeted a tweet promoting Ivanka Trump’s new book, ‘Women Who Work,’ raising ethics questions. It has since been deleted.
‘Thank you to my beautiful sisters for the support of my #WomenWhoWorkBook!’ Ivanka Trump wrote in the initial tweet from her personal account, alongside photos of Tiffany and Lara Trump posing with the book.
It was retweeted by the @GenderAtState account, which is run by the Office of Global Women’s Issues, a policy office within the State Department focused on women’s rights and empowerment through foreign policy.
CNN reached out to the State Department and a spokesperson declined to comment.”
