"Trump's Leadership PAC Faces Mounting Legal Bills and Cash Crunch"

Former President Donald Trump's leadership PAC, Save America, spent $2.9 million on legal expenses in January, adding to the $1.8 million in new debts for legal fees owed to several firms. The PAC received $5 million from MAGA Inc., which helped cover the legal spending. Trump's campaign committee spent $11.4 million last month, with advertising being the largest spending category. The joint fundraising committee, which will not file new campaign finance reports until April, typically splits what it raises 90-10 between Trump’s campaign and the Save America leadership PAC after covering the costs of raising the money.

"Trump's PACs' $50 Million Legal Spending Spree in 2023"

Donald Trump's political action committees spent roughly $50 million on legal expenses and investigation-related costs in 2023, as he faces four criminal indictments and potential trials. The expenses were covered by donations to his PAC, Save America, which were initially collected after the 2020 election. Trump sought to replenish the PAC's funds by requesting a $60 million refund from a different pro-Trump super PAC.

Pro-Trump PAC's $40 Million Legal Fee Spending Raises Eyebrows

The pro-Donald Trump group, Save America, has spent over $40 million on legal fees this year to defend the former president and his allies in various cases. The spending on legal costs has more than doubled compared to the combined spending in 2021 and 2022. As Trump's legal battles intensify, the bills are expected to continue rising, with federal and state trials awaiting him. Save America, a political action committee founded by Trump, is funding legal representation for Trump and his associates involved in investigations against him. The majority of the funding comes from grassroots Trump supporters. Critics argue that the expenses are diverting funds from defeating Joe Biden and are potentially violating federal election laws.

Trump Leadership PAC's Legal Fees Exceed $40 Million Amid Indictments

Former President Donald Trump's political action committee, Save America, has spent over $40 million on legal fees since the beginning of this year, more than double the amount spent in all of 2022. The PAC, funded mostly by small-dollar donations from Trump's supporters, is expected to report this expenditure to the Federal Election Commission. Trump's team argues that the significant spending is necessary to defend the former president and his inner circle as legal troubles mount, including charges related to mishandling classified documents, business fraud, and investigations into the January 6th Capitol attack and voter fraud claims.
