President Trump took to Truth Social this afternoon to distance himself from two of his top political advisers after a New York Times report that they spent time advising a pro-Russian government overseas weeks before the midterms.![]()
The Times reported that James Blair and Chris LaCivita, who lead the Trump political operation's midterm ad campaign, spent several days last week in Republika Srpska, a self-governing territory in Bosnia and Herzegovina, ahead of its Oct. 4 elections. Each was reportedly paid several hundred thousand dollars through a Washington law firm hired by the Republika Srpska government.![]()
The ruling nationalist party won decisively. Its leader, Milorad Dodik, thanked Vladimir Putin for his support during his victory speech.![]()
Blair runs MAGA Inc., the pro-Trump super PAC that reported $415 million in the bank at the end of August, and LaCivita is a senior adviser. Blair served as White House deputy chief of staff until May.![]()
The report drew sharp criticism within Republican circles. Steve Bannon called the pair "two grifters" and called for an audit of the super PAC's spending.![]()
In his post, President Trump described Blair and LaCivita as "outside consultants" who are free to take other clients, said he has no idea who else they work for, and wrote that if there is a conflict, he will "terminate them, immediately!"![]()
Neither Blair nor LaCivita responded to requests for comment, according to published reports.![]()
