The Attorneys General of Florida, Texas, West Virginia, Louisiana, Missouri, and Georgia are investigating GoFundMe over their actions in taking down donations to trucker protesters. GoFundMe should have been investigated a long time ago.
About seven hours after Governor DeSantis posted his intention to investigate, the far-left operation GoFundMe advised people they would return donations back to people automatically without making them fill out a form.
It didn’t hurt that Tim Pool tweeted: If you donated to the freedom convoy file a charge back immediately. They will likely get charged 10 to $15 for every charge back.
Nor did it hurt that Elon Musk humiliated them by bringing up their full-on support for CHAZ/CHOP.
The update we issued earlier enabled all donors to get a refund and outlined a plan to distribute remaining funds to verified charities selected by the Freedom Convoy organizers. However, due to donor feedback, we are simplifying the process and automatically refunding donations.

It is a fraud for @gofundme to commandeer $9M in donations sent to support truckers and give it to causes of their own choosing.
I will work with @AGAshleyMoody to investigate these deceptive practices — these donors should be given a refund.

Patriotic Texans donated to Canadian truckers’ worthy cause using GoFundMe. This BLM-backing company went woke, froze the funds, & failed to deliver Texans’ money. Today I assembled a team to investigate their potential fraud & deception. Texas donors will get Justice! #GoFundMe

More farmers join the protest as the Police Chief, mayor, and others threaten to throw them in prison:

I’ve always been benign on Elon Musk but over the past several months he has come out against government tyranny and big tech censorship. So even if my opinion of Musk was negative I see him now in light of an ancient proverb; “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
@GoFundMe.com read our comments here on IndependentSentinel.com and feared our wrath! LOL!
Their mind changing will do no good in reversing my sentiments. Any group that would even think of diverting donated money to a cause other than what the donors intended is a sleazy, fraudulent group.
To Hell with GoFundMe!
NEVER donate through GoFundMe!
