When The New York Times reported Sunday that ex-President Donald Trump’s team was creating a legal-defense fund expected to be called the Patriot Legal Defense Fund Inc., its reporters missed the fact that the fund was actually set up and named two weeks earlier.

They also missed an intriguing Florida angle: The Patriot Legal Defense Fund is being run by the Venice-based accounting firm Robinson Gruters & Roberts. That’s Gruters, as in State Sen. Joe Gruters, R-Sarasota – the Trump-allied, Gov. Ron DeSantis-shunning chairman of the Republican Party of Florida.
