NEW: ⁦@CampaignLegal⁩ files updated complaint, says Trump campaign spending 'schemes' through shell company broke federal law - Business Insider - from ⁦@davelevinthal⁩ and me businessinsider.com/donald-trump-c…
The complaint builds on our reporting last month on Jared Kushner and Trump family’s roles in creating American Made Media Consultants, the Trump campaign shell company which spent about half of the campaign’s money
"These schemes disguised which firms or individuals were working for Trump's committees, how much and when they were being paid, and the purposes of those payments," @CampaignLegal writes in its updated complaint
For more on the backstory here, our scoops from last month on American Made Media Consultants: businessinsider.com/jared-kushner-… and businessinsider.com/eric-trump-dep…

"It's a little disturbing that the RNC would be controlled by a candidate," said one Republican close to the president. "The members are stunned."
"The 168 want to be back in power," said a former RNC official, referring to the number of committee members from the states and U.S. territories who ultimately vote on who will lead them.

NEW: Inside Bill Stepien and Jason Miller's efforts to rein in Trump and save his campaign, with just 3 months left - my latest deep dive in @thisisinsider - businessinsider.com/bill-stepien-j…
Republicans close to the campaign repeatedly gave credit to Stepien and Miller for the (relatively) tighter focus from Trump of late, including shorter press briefings at WH ...
BUT, @JasonMillerinDC said it was all Trump - and he's just happy to go along with it: "I would love to pretend that I had some special influence. It was the president's idea. My job is just to say that 'I agree with you.'"

What happened at the Trump campaign?? Classic DC-style “layering” - @parscale keeps title of campaign manager and Bill Stepien takes the reins. The details here: businessinsider.com/kushner-revamp…
Talk to eight different factions in Trump World and get eight different stories — but the central nugget remains: Kushner (and Trump) moved Stepien up at the campaign following a dismal two month slide
Some folks said this was always the plan, move Parscale aside after Memorial Day — but the final straw seemed to be a Thursday meeting at the White House w the battleground state directors from AZ and FL ... all the details packed in there (subscription reqd - and worth it)
