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:
