Who Paid Cambridge Analytica?

The Trump campaign, said it paid Cambridge Analytica, a total of $6M for its services.

When you do the math, it costs a lot more than that, to purchase the data used for the campaign, from Facebook.

This is just for the data.

I assume Cambridge Analytica, is not running a charity, so who paid the balance, AND, Cambridge Analytica's fees?

Trump's Foundation could have been involved. He was using other people's donations as a slush fund to help bail out his companies, purchase paintings of himself, pay taxes, legal fees, etc. He tried to shut it down immediately after winning the election, but New York State refused to allow it until they finished an investigation that had started in October. That investigation is still ongoing.

@windinhishair I'm sure Mueller has heard about it by now :-)

@Northwest Mueller and NY AG Schneiderman have been sharing information for the better part of a year. Mueller definitely knows.
