Open Secrets: Trump Paid Jan. 6 Rally Staff $12.6 Million
Trump’s campaign and joint fundraising committee routed more than $771 million through a shell company formed by Trump aides, hiding details of those payments.
“Former President Donald Trump’s political operation and Republican Party committees have paid over $12.6 million to individuals and firms that organized the Jan. 6, 2021, rally that preceded the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol since the start of the 2020 election,” OpenSecrets reports.
“The full extent of the payments from the Trump campaign political operations to rally organizers during the 2020 election and around the rally in early 2021 remains a mystery because the campaign’s top vendor was American Made Media Consultants LLC, a firm created by Trump campaign aides to act as a clearinghouse for its spending.”
“Trump’s campaign and joint fundraising committee routed more than $771 million through the firm, hiding details of those payments.”
The Trump campaign laundered about $770 million in expenses to an unknown number of vendors through a single shell company. According to news reports, that company—American Made Media Consultants—was designed by members of Trump's inner circle. https://t.co/9MV4nk1A4K

Clicking through to the Forbes article:
“$771 million. That’s how much the Trump Make America Great Again Committee spent through a shell company called American Made Media Consultants LLC, OpenSecrets found.”
THREE QUARTERS OF A BILLION DOLLARS. Was that money laundered?
