It's not surprising that key figures in the Mar-a-Lago scandal are represented by legal counsel. What is surprising is who's paying for it. (via MaddowBlog)

As the Jan. 6 committee’s work unfolded over the course of the year, investigators spoke to many witnesses who were represented by legal counsel. This wasn’t at all surprising.surprising, however, was the entity paying those lawyers’ fees: More than a few Jan. 6 witnesses worked with attorneys whose bills were paid by Donald Trump’s Save America political action committee.

Six months later, as the investigation into the Republican’s Mar-a-Lago scandal advances, we’re confronting eerily similar circumstances. The Washington PostFormer president Donald Trump’s political action committee is paying legal bills for some key witnesses involved in the Justice Department investigation into whether Trump mishandled classified documents, obstructed the investigation or destroyed government records, according to people familiar with the matter.

But some outside legal experts say they could pose a conflict. PAC = Payments About Crime Ha that’s like him paying small contractors after they built the Taj in Atlantic City.
