Margaret Hunter admits guilt in campaign-finance scandal

Prosecutors say Rep. Duncan Hunter used campaign funds to pay for affairs with lobbyists and aides

Any bets on whether Margaret will testify against Duncan?

SDNY has decided not to prosecute the Trump Organization for their part in this crime. But isn't disguising the reimbursement as a legal fee an accounting irregularity at the very least? Especially if they deducted it as a business expense.

Now that the Cohen case is closed, the judge has unsealed the search warrants. I hope that Bob has time in between bridge events to examine the 269 pages and tell me if I'm right.
