he was deputy chairman of the inaugural committee. he is described as the guy who actually ran it. the vice chairman of the finance committee was republican fund raiser elliott broidy who is now reportedly under justice department investigation also on money laundering charges. so on the stand in the manafort trial, i have to tell you, rick gates testified under oath that he himself might have stolen money from the fund. maybe have to check. he literally said under oath, it s possible. you know, i have to go back through my files. i might have stolen money from there, too. i don t remember. then there s the assertion that the new guy, sam patten who today pled guilty to operating illegally as a foreign agent in this country for a pro russia ukrainian party, today prosecutors said that he illegally facilitated the payment of a $50,000 donation from a ukrainian oligarching to
