The reported $30,000 payment American Media Inc. made for a rumored story about President Donald Trump fathering an illegitimate child in the 1980s was an illegal campaign contribution, a government watchdog said in complaints filed to the
Federal Election Commission
and the
Justice Department
on Thursday.

Grassroots organization Common Cause claimed the hefty sum the publisher of the
National Enquirer
gave to former Trump World Tower doorman Dino Sajudin for the rumor violated contribution limits and contribution reporting requirements.

“We have laws to ensure disclose of who is funding presidential campaigns to protect the integrity of our democratic process,” Common Cause president Karen Hobert Flynn said in a press release. “The president and his team seem to have repeatedly chosen to ignore campaign finance laws in an attempt to bury scandals related to the then-candidate’s extramarital affairs. We are encouraged that the DOJ is vigorously investigating the allegations outlined in Common Cause’s complaints related to earlier reports of hush money payments on behalf of Donald Trump and his campaign.”

Common Cause asserted the payment to Sajudin was intended to influence the 2016 presidential election and that Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, coordinated the effort. The deal with Sajudin was agreed to in November 2015 when Trump was campaigning for president.
