TPM: The McCain campaign is now returning $50,000 in donations that were bundled through Harry Sargeant, following reports that the money was solicited by Sargeant's business partner, a dual citizen of Jordan and the Dominican Republic.
It's illegal for foreign national to donate to American campaigns, though the law is unclear on how this would apply to bundling. Either way, it's not a question the McCain campaign would want to have to deal with.
