Vivek Ramaswamy Promised to Release 'the Full Epstein Client List.' The Super PAC Behind Him Kept $100,000 From a Man an Epstein Accuser Named Under Oath — and Sent Its Leftover Cash to His Governor's PAC.

Billionaire Glenn Dubin, whom an Epstein accuser named under oath, gave $6,600 to Vivek Ramaswamy's presidential campaign and $100,000 to the super PAC backing it.

The super PAC kept the $100,000 — and when it shut down, it sent its last $116,816 to the committee that is now V-PAC, the super PAC backing Ramaswamy for Ohio governor.
