NEW SCANDAL FOR FLORIDA DEM? – Florida Democrat Andrew Gillum, the Tallahassee mayor who’s running for governor, may have broken state law by using city funds for a private round-trip flight on a developer's plane to meet campaign donors, contradicting his previous account of the flight, emails released earlier this week as part of a state ethics probe show ... The controversy marks the latest headache for Gillum, coming days after it was revealed that he had accepted pricey tickets to the Broadway musical "Hamilton" from an undercover FBI agent in the summer of 2016. Gillum has maintained he got the tickets from his brother, Marcus, and assumed his brother had paid for them.
The document releases from GOP-connected lawyer Chris Kise, who represents Gillum backer and former campaign treasurer Adam Corey, followed a subpoena by the Florida Commission on Ethics, which along with the FBI has investigated potential corruption at the highest levels of the Tallahassee city government. Gillum has not been formally identified as a target of either probe, and he has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing. - Reported by Gregg Re (@gregg_re on Twitter)
