Terry McAuliffe, campaigning to recapture his old seat, took $100,000 from a billionaire who defended disgraced media mogul Harvey Weinstein. McAuliffe took the six-figure donation in April from Paul Tudor Jones, a billionaire hedge fund manager who was a close ally of Weinstein's and a board member of the Hollywood convicted rapist’s production company, The Weinstein Company. "Paul Tudor Jones knowingly turned his head the other way and even went as far as to comfort Weinstein by telling him it would all be forgotten. Let's put our frustration into action and demand that The Everglades Foundation cut ties with Paul Tudor Jones immediately." Following the reports on Weinstein, McAuliffe donated $57,000 worth of campaign contributions from Weinstein and his company to the Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Action Alliance.
