The U.S. attorney in charge of investigating New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s (R.) bridge controversy has a long history of donating to Democratic organizations and candidates, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records.
The records show that U.S. attorney Paul J. Fishman, appointed by President Obama in 2009, has given a total of over $12,000 between 2002 and 2008, including $2,300 to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign in 2007, and $1,200 to John Kerry’s presidential campaign in 2004.
