Save America, the political action committee founded by former President Donald Trump, has spent more than $40 million on legal fees for Trump and his allies on multiple legal cases in the first six months of 2023, a source familiar with the PAC's upcoming public filing confirmed to CBS News.
The more than $40 million figure in half a year represents a sharp increase in the PAC's legal service spending, which came in at over $16 million across all of 2021 and 2022 combined, according to a previous FEC filing. Before Trump announced he was running for reelection in November 2022, the Republican National Committee paid many of the former president's legal bills. But in November, RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel told CNN the committee could not pay the former president's legal bills if he announced a 2024 presidential bid, which he shortly thereafter did.
