President Donald Trump pardoned a Republican megadonor linked to a massive fraud scandal after he contributed to a high-stakes swing state campaign, according to a new report.<\/p>\n

Adam Kidan \u2014 who pleaded guilty in the lobbyist Jack Abramoff conspiracy case \u2014received a pardon from Trump just days after making a $2,600 to Rep. Ryan MacKenzie’s (R-PA) leadership PAC on June 30, NOTUS reported Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“Trump traveled to Mackenzie\u2019s eastern Pennsylvania district<\/u> on June 23 to campaign<\/u> with him,” the report stated. “The president pardoned Kidan on July 3.”<\/p>\n

Mackenzie\u2019s office denied communication with Trump regarding the pardon but did not respond to question about whether the campaign would keep the cash, NOTUS reported. Neither the White House nor Kidan replied to requests for comment.<\/p>\n

But his Democratic challenger Bob Brooks<\/u>‘s campaign told NOTUS they are livid as it fights to win a \u201ctoss-up\u201d race, according to the report.<\/p>\n

\u201cThree days after a convicted fraudster cut Ryan Mackenzie a massive campaign check, that same fraudster walked away with a presidential pardon,” Brooks campaign manager Jenna Kaufman told NOTUS. “That is corruption in plain sight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kidan donated about $270,000 to Trump-affiliated committees during the 2024 election cycle and hosted fundraisers at Mar-a-Lago, according to the report.<\/p>\n

He pleaded guilty to federal charges of conspiracy and mail fraud in 2005.<\/p>\n

“As part of his sentencing, Kidan and Abramoff were ordered to pay a total of $217 million in restitution,” the report stated. “It\u2019s unclear whether Kidan paid the full amount, and Trump\u2019s pardon is likely to erase any remaining financial obligations.”<\/p>\n
