Discover Financial Services has blocked customers from making donations on a Christian crowdfunding site that was raising money for accused Kenosha gunman Kyle Rittenhouse, a report said.

The credit card company, in emails to Forbes, said the action was taken for operating regulation violations.The violation wasn't explained.
“We regularly review merchants for operating regulations violations; turning off merchants for violations is a typical process for us, but one we don’t make public,” the company said.
GiveSendGo.com has received more than 9,000 donations for Rittenhouse's defense.
