Paul Waldman: Kind of incredible that ProPublica documented that a raft of key witnesses in Trump's trials have gotten huge payoffs from his company and his campaign, and the rest of the news media was like "Eh, doesn't seem like a big deal, we won't bother looking at that"

Multiple Trump Witnesses Have Received Significant Financial Benefits From His Businesses, Campaignwww.propublica.org Witnesses in the various criminal cases against the former president have gotten pay raises, new jobs and more.

guessing that in about a week the NYT will run one story on page A15 basically regurgitating what ProPublica reported and then claim they've covered the issue.
