Rightwing legal activist accused of misusing $73m from non-profit groups

#Leonard #Leo, a rightwing legal activist, has raked in more than $73m over six years from non-profit groups that may be #diverting #money #illegally to his businesses, according to a watchdog complaint seen by the Guardian.

Leo is a hugely influential figure said to have been the chief curator of supreme court nominees when Donald Trump was US president. The devout Catholic is a staunch opponent of abortion rights.

The #Campaign for #Accountability, a non-profit watchdog organisation based in Washington, has called for an investigation into #seven #non-#profit groups linked to Leo that it said may be #misusing millions of dollars for the personal benefit of insiders – a violation of their #tax-#exempt status.
