Gallego Spokesperson Says Trump Is ‘Targeting’ the Democratic Senator with DOJ Investigation
The probe stems from a whistleblower complaint alleging PAC money paid for family trips, after the Senate Ethics Committee cleared him of separate misconduct claims.
- On Monday, the Department of Justice opened a campaign finance investigation into Senator Ruben Gallego, casting a shadow over the Arizona Democrat's potential 2028 presidential bid.
- Earlier Monday, the Senate Ethics Committee publicized a letter dated June 26 dismissing a complaint filed by Representative Anna Paulina Luna, stating it found no evidence Gallego violated Federal law or Senate Rules.
- Axios reported the probe stems from a "whistleblower complaint" out of Southern California alleging Gallego used a Political Action Committee to fund family excursions to Miami, Chicago, Disneyland, and Disney World.
- Reacting to the inquiry, a Gallego spokesperson accused the Justice Department of being "weaponized" to silence critics, while the senator defended campaign expenditures as one of the "least wealthy" members of Congress.
- Gallego's team claims the investigation follows the Senate Ethics Committee's dismissal of "right-wing conspiracies" pushed by political allies, while President Donald Trump is "targeting" the Arizona senator.
