Hmm, the links just go to the pages that have lots and lots of headlines, and could not find those. Isn’t Peter Schweizer the man who investigated Congress and the only cealn one he found was Sessions, a book about it. Odd that he would make the claim that Trump is wrong about this.

Hmm, did some quick searching. Maybe Mercer and the Koch bros hate Trump?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_Accountability_Institute

The Government Accountability Institute (GAI) is a conservative nonprofit think-tank[3] located in Tallahassee, Florida.[4][5] GAI was founded in 2012[6] by Peter Schweizer and Steve Bannon with funding from Robert Mercer and family.[7] Schweizer serves as the group’s president.[8] The group is known for its involvement with the publication of the books Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich and Bush Bucks: How Public Service and Corporations Helped Make Jeb Rich.

The stated mission of GAI is to “investigate and expose crony capitalism, misuse of taxpayer monies, and other governmental corruption or malfeasance.”[9] According to Bloomberg Businessweek, GAI creates “rigorous, fact-based indictments against major politicians, then partners with mainstream media outlets to disseminate those findings to the broadest audience.”[1] Members of GAI’s board of directors include Steve Bannon, Peter Schweizer, Hunter Lewis, Ron Robinson (president of Young America’s Foundation), and Wynton Hall.[10]

GAI’s research methods include analyzing tax filings, flight logs, and foreign government documents as well as engaging in data-mining on the deep web, which includes the 97% of information on the World Wide Web that isn’t indexed by traditional search engines.[1]

Between 2012 and 2014, GAI received donations of almost $4 million from the Mercer Family Foundation and the Koch brothers-affiliated Donors Trust.[11][12]
