Scaramucci is returning to aid President Donald Trump by setting up an external communications shop with the sole purpose of helping the White House…Such an effort by Scaramucci would potentially violate the Anti-Deficiency Act.

It would only violate the Anti-Deficiency Act if they actually use Federal money for this (and run a budget deficit). If they use private money, or if Congress appropriates money and they don’t exceed their budget, it would not violate that act.
