Arrested White House Aide Savafian's FEC Files

Recently arrested and indicted White House procurement official David Safavian has a long history of donating primarily to GOP candidates and causes, stretching back to 1997, according to his Federal Election Commission files available at the NewsMeat.com site.

Total contributions to GOP pols and PACs: $29,184.

Interestingly, he donated $1,000 this year to his wife Jennifer Safavian's former boss, Rep. Tom Davis of Virginia.

Safavian also gave a paltry $250 in 2004 to one Democrat, Rep. John Conyers of Michigan.

All of Safavian's donations come to $29,434.

Jennifer Safavian's FEC file shows she doesn't spread as much moolah around as her husband. She gave $800 in 1998 to GOP Sen. John Ensign of Nevada and in 2004 she coughed up $500 for the Bush Cheney reelection campaign.
