The Democratic National Committee is using the Russia counterintelligence investigation to appeal for new political donations, even as the party’s leaders in Congress have appealed for the probe to rise above partisanship so it can answer important national security questions about Vladimir Putin’s efforts to influence last fall’s U.S. election.
The party’s latest fundraising appeal went out late Wednesday, linking to a CNN story on the Russia controversy and seeking between $10 and $200 in contributions.
The email appeal came from an address labeled “DNC Rapid Response” and the subject line read: “BREAKING: Coordinating with Russia to hurt Hillary’s campaign?”
It included an image of a CNN story that suggested the FBI had circumstantial evidence that “indicates” associates of President Trump may have given implicit approval to Russia to release damaging information on Hillary Clinton last year.
“If you’ve saved your payment information, your donation will go through immediately,” it read.
