Between May and August, a hedge fund (Electron Capital Partners) managed by Mitch McConnell’s brother in law, James O. “Jos” Shaver purchased $26,841,000 worth of (USPS contractor) XPO Logistics stock—the fund’s first puchase in its six-year history.

Last year, American Oversight filed a lawsuit to obtain communications between Mitch McConnell’s wife, Secretary Elaine Chao, and Senate Leadership Fund’s leadership. Deputy Attorney General Rosen, Chao’s deputy at the time, was also named in the suit.

More on Robert “Mike” Duncan and Mitch McConnell. There’s a little more history here.
@CongressmanRaja Mitch McConnell’s brother in law’s hedge fund’s stake in XPO Logistics is just a few million dollars shy of that reported for Postmaster General DeJoy’s.

Anyway, I guess we’ll never know why Mitch McConnell won’t bring the House USPS bill to the Senate floor.
@CongressmanRaja The hedge fund purchased its XPO Logistics stock at $77.25 per share. With XPO now at $89.44, McConnell’s brother in law’s hedge fund’s XPO earnings—over three months or less—is $4,236,000.
@CongressmanRaja Senator McConnell’s wife reported divesting $500,001-$1,000,000 from the hedge fund’s offshore fund, Electron Global Fund, prior to completing her initial financial disclosure for her nomination as Secretary of Transportation.

The hedge fund manager’s wife—Secretary Chao’s sister, Christine—maxed out her contributions to Mitch McConnell’s authorized campaign committee for the current cycle, as did two of her children.
@CongressmanRaja In 2014, Christine Chao contributed $400,000 to Kentuckians for Strong Leadership, a Super PAC from which all expenditures were made in opposition to McConnell’s opponent. Coincidentally, the treasurer of that Super PAC is now treasurer of Senate Leadership Fund.
