by Mitch Perry, Florida Phoenix July 25, 2023 (Updated with a response from SOS America). A campaign finance watchdog group has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) alleging that unknown persons used an “obscure entity” to funnel half-a-million dollars to a super PAC supporting the presidential campaign of Miami Mayor Francis Suarez. The Campaign Legal Center – which has already filed two complaints regarding Ron DeSantis’ political campaign – is alleging that unknown persons used a company called PassionForest in October 2022 to send a $500,000 contribution to SOS America PAC, a super PAC working to help get Suarez elected president. PassionForest, LLC was described in the complaint as “an obscure, eleven-month-old company whose only known activity involved selling artificial flowers online.” The GOP Miami mayor is not named in the complaint. In their complaint, the Campaign Legal Center alleges that PassionForest was not the true source of the $500,000 contribution, but was instead used as a “straw donor” by unknown people to send that half-a-million dollars to SOS America “while concealing their identities as the true contributors.”read more
