He is also a significant supporter of #Health Secy #RFKJr, who also ran for president last year. Mellon donated millions to Kennedy’s presidential campaign & has also given money to his #AntiVax group, Children’s *Health* Defense.

The #Pentagon said it accepted the donation under the “general gift acceptance authority.”
“The donation was made on the condition that it be used to offset the cost of service members’ salaries & benefits,” Sean Parnell, the Pentagon’s chief propagandist, said in a stmnt.
Still, the donation appears to be a potential violation of the #AntideficiencyAct, which prohibits federal agencies from spending money in excess of congressional appropriations or from accepting voluntary services.
