A May 4, 2017 Washington Post story said that Federal Election Commission reports reveal that Trump’s presidential campaign paid $200,000 on Dec. 5 for “data management services” to Blanton’s firm Colt Ventures, which is an investor in a social media company called VizSense, a social-media company.
That company was co-founded by Jon Iadonisi, whom the Post noted is a friend and business associate of fired Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn. Flynn’s contacts with Russians are under investigation by federal authorities. |
