Mostly I just wanted to confirm what a few of us suspected but could not confirm until the above tweet made it perfectly clear.

Also, this is why I love DU. We do good sleuthing.

10. They received $169,680 from Bolton in 2016 and $410,333 from Bolton in 2014

In 2014 they spent $23,277 on Bolton's PAC.

Something doesn't add up. They seem to be taking in a lot from Bolton, but only spent $23,000 on him.
