Yesterday The Houston Chronicle<\/a> reported that the Justice Department charged eight people \u2014 including a prominent political donor to both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump and a Lebanese-American businessman who was a witness in Robert Mueller\u2019s investigation \u2014 with conspiring to conceal the source of more than $3.5 million in donations to Clinton.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The 53-count indictment unsealed in federal court in Washington detailed efforts by Ahmad \u201cAndy\u201d Khawaja and George Nader to conceal the true source of the millions of dollars in campaign contributions, which prosecutors allege were made to gain influence with high-level political figures, including Clinton.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Khawaja, who lives in Los Angeles and is the owner of the online processing company Allied Wallet, is accused of making the donations in his name, his wife\u2019s name and his company\u2019s name, even though they were actually funded by another businessman, Nader.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As they arranged the payments, Nader was in touch with an official from a foreign government about his efforts to gain influence with the prominent politicians, prosecutors charge. The government is not identified in court documents.<\/strong><\/p>\n
