Wisconsin Ethics Commission Calls for Prosecution of Trump Fundraising Group

Wisconsin's ethics commission has recommended felony charges against Donald Trump's Save America Joint Fundraising Committee for allegedly bypassing campaign finance limits in a scheme to target the Republican state assembly speaker during a 2022 primary challenge. The commission alleges coordination between the primary challenger, state Republican party chapters, and Trump's fundraising group to evade donation limits, implicating key figures including the assembly speaker and a vocal proponent of Trump's election lies. Despite surviving the primary challenge, the assembly speaker faces ongoing scrutiny and a recall campaign backed by election-denying activists.
