[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - Duncan Hunter finally pleaded guilty to abuse of $250,000 in campaign funds in a plea deal with federal prosecutors in San Diego
- Republican had fought allegations for more than a year and called it a 'witch hunt' claiming he was being targeted like Donald Trump
- But after his wife Margaret took a plea deal which would have seen her testify, he changed his tune and admitted to corruption
- Campaign cash was illegally spent on entertaining string of mistresses, family trips abroad, and even a first class ticket for Eggburt the Hunters' pet rabbit
- Hunter, 42, is yet to say when he will stand down; he is scion of political dynasty and his father Duncan Hunter Sr. held the 50th CA District before him
- Outside the court crowd jeered 'lock him up' and held up signs saying 'Trump next'; Hunter was one of first two GOP congressmen to endorse then candidate
- Other one was Chris Collins, who quit the House in September after pleading guilty to insider trading
