The state Ethics Commission alleges Donald Trump’s joint fundraising committee and GOP state Rep. Janel Brandtjen schemed to evade campaign finance limits as part of an effort that steered at least $40,000 to the 2022 primary challenge of Speaker Robin Vos, according to records obtained by WisPolitics.
The commission this week recommended local district attorneys investigate and charge both, as well as the campaign of Adam Steen, who lost to Vos by 260 votes, eight individuals and the three county Republican parties alleged to be involved.
The referrals accuse Steen, Brandtjen, the Save America Joint Fundraising Committee and others of committing felonies.
The Save America Joint Fundraising Committee is the primary fundraising vehicle for Trump’s 2024 campaign and his leadership PAC.

Back in 2020, Speaker Vos spent $700,000 on an investigation of the presidential election in his state. It found nothing, but Vos refused to do a double secret ninja investigation. Trump responded by endorsing his primary challenger in this race.
