A source close to past and future first lady Melania Trump told the New York Post that she refused an invitation to meet with Jill Biden in the White House for tea on Wednesday because of President Joe Biden's sanctioning of the raid on Mar-A-Lago in 2022.

“She ain’t going,” the source said. “Jill Biden’s husband authorized the FBI snooping through her underwear drawer. The Bidens are disgusting."

“Jill Biden isn’t someone Melania needs to meet,” the source added.

Melania Trump did go to the White House and meet with Michelle Obama in 2016 after her husband was elected president the first time. In 2020, the Trumps did not issue invitations to the Bidens, probably because they didn't consider the election fair and legitimate at the time.

Melania Trump said in September that the raid of her Florida home made her angry and that she considered it "an invasion of privacy."

“I saw unpleasant stuff that nobody wants to see,” Melania said of her home after the raid. “And you get angry because, you know, nobody should be putting up with that kind of stuff.”
