An online media network that promotes election and coronavirus-related conspiracy theories is soliciting donations and telling donors their contributions will be tax-deductible -- even though its foundation's tax-exempt status has been revoked by the IRS.
The Worldview Weekend Broadcast Network -- which has given a platform to conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell and other right-wing figures who have pushed falsehoods about the 2020 election -- collects donations through a nonprofit organization, the Worldview Weekend Foundation, which they say funds some of its operations. The IRS revoked the foundation's tax-exempt status in May after it failed to file tax returns for three consecutive years, according to the agency's records.
CNN reporter to Mike Lindell: You have 'proof of nothing' 08:35The network asks for donations in a form at the bottom of every page on its website, which states three times that contributions are"100% Tax-Deductable" . And its audio and video broadcasts and social media posts often include similar requests for donations and claims about deductibility.
MyPillow CEO's election fraud 'proof' implodes in front of a live audience 04:09"By law, organizations cannot solicit in Tennessee if they do not comply with registration requirements or make false statements to donors," the spokesperson, Julia Bruck, wrote in an email. Civil penalties for charities that don't comply with state law can reach up to $5,000 per violation, and unlawfully obtained contributions have to be forfeited to the state in some cases, she said.
