A defense fund meant to aid employees and associates of former President Donald Trump who have been caught up in the legal cases against him has raised more than $1.6 million in its nearly five months of existence — but none of that money has been spent on legal fees.
In fact, the largest expenditure by the Patriot Legal Defense Fund appears to have been a large bash at the 77-year-old’s Mar-a-Lago resort late last month, according to IRS filings obtained by The Post Wednesday.
In total, the fund has shelled out just $28,578 after raising $1,624,360 since its formation July 18.
The Daily Beast first reported on the filings.
Apart from the mysterious $18,136 spend on Mar-a-Lago’s “banquet venue” Nov. 27, the remaining expenditures include bank, consulting, accounting, and credit card fees, as well as a $542 “travel expense” paid to a New Jersey-based consulting firm.
