The group, which did not return a request seeking comment through its website, is continuing to push the idea the 2020 election was stolen from Trump, a sentiment now informally dubbed the “Big Lie.” The site includes links to lawsuits filed by the group and a section where people can submit what they think is evidence of voter fraud.

The group now has 21 days to respond to the administrative complaint filed by Fried’s office, which is the state’s top charity regulator. If it does not, the office will push for default judgment and a fine that could be up to $15,000. If the group does not pay, Fried said her office could take the matter to court.

“I have an obligation to defend the people of our state, regardless of the political organization, regardless of their mission,” Fried said.

Sidney really thinks charity begins at home

Nah. That's not using your political office to settle political scores.

'Fried is currently running for governor in Florida.' That sums it up.

I didn't realize that any Agriculture Dept had law enforcement powers outside of, you know, agriculture.

Should be a layup. I think Propublica already provided analysis of the fake charity.

how about they all just go to Florida and that little peninsula is gobbled up by the next tsunami...

Powell's legal competence, like the Kraken, is largely mythological.
