Ex-Judges Challenge Trump Fund: Legal Panel Demands Full Disclosure of Campaign Donations and Usage
WASHINGTON, D.C. – A coalition of former federal and state judges has officially challenged the financial operations of a fund established by former President Donald Trump, prompting a formal demand for transparency. In a letter sent Monday to the Trump Organization and the fund’s trustees, the panel, known as the Jurists for Ethical Governance, cited potential violations of campaign finance laws regarding the raising and spending of millions of dollars. The group asserts that the fund, which claims to support legal defense efforts, has failed to properly disclose donor identities and expenditure allocations, raising concerns under federal election statutes. The request for a comprehensive audit comes amid ongoing legal scrutiny of Trump’s political fundraising activities, with the ex-judges warning of possible legal action if full records are not produced within 30 days.
