Tom-Posey, KKK, Koch Brothers, CSE
When you have a a big pile of millions of dollars, I expect you do a background check on who you hire to be treasurer of it. We can be pretty sure David Koch (one of the infamous "Killer Koch Brothers") knew who Tom Posey was when he hired him as treasurer for "Citizens for a Sound Economy" funded at over $5,000,000 per year.
The secretive Koch Brothers don't like people seeing into their criminal activities, and CSE was tight about public revelations about who all contributed and some of the seamier officers they hired.

... "The mid-1980's was a real hotbed of civilian paramilitary activity. In addition to the Mercenary School, there was also Tom Posey from Decatur, Alabama, that formed a group named Civilian Military Assistance (CMA). Under pressure, Posey changed the name to Civilian Materiel Assistance. After 1979, the Sandinistas might have been in control of what passed as a government for Nicaragua, but people were coming from everywhere to fight against them. The Mercenary Association, CMA, and other entities which I shall not identify, worked together to get people on the ground to screw up Daniel Ortega's hold on power in Nicaragua. The National Security Council began to take notice and offer some assistance."

One attendee identified in the October 1992 teletype, was Tom Posey, a leader of the CMA who had been deeply implicated in the Iran-Contra scandal. The PATCON agent was shown five sets of night-vision goggles in the back of Posey's vehicle, according to the document. The agent bought the goggles for $7,500, the document states, and they "appeared to be part of the Fort Hood theft." Curiously, the FBI field office in San Antonio was instructed to check the serial numbers of the goggles "without revealing to Army authorities" that they had been recovered. ...

... I went along with my investigator, Father William J. Davis, to meet him. We had a meeting out in a public park where he wanted to meet. He said, "Look, while you were gone, Tom Posey came to Washington. He met me and brought me to a public park and introduced me to a man by the name of Rob Owens. This man, Rob Owens, began to explain to me that he was going to be the private liaison with the National Security Council, working for a man by the name of Lieut. Oliver North, and that he, Rob Owens, was going to be the man who met with the contra leaders and took their orders for weapons, made sure they got their weapons, and maintained liaison with the White House in direct defiance of the Congressional ban against White House support for contras." ...
