‘Evidence is overwhelming’: House committee says Dem ActBlue funding scheme ‘overlooks bad actors’
A U.S. House committee has written a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi explaining that its investigation shows that the security measures used by ActBlue, a massive Democrat cash collecting scheme, are weak, and the organization “overlooks bad actors.”
WorldNetDaily recently reported the investigation was begun into fundraising giant ActBlue, which reportedly has directed some $16 billion to Democrat politicians in recent years.
Earlier, Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., the chief of the House Oversight Committee, said, “We’re investigating ActBlue the same way we investigated the Bidens. … We’re starting with the suspicious activity reports — bank violations that flag financial crimes. And let me tell you, the evidence is overwhelming.”
There have been claims of money-laundering, massive piles of cash being funneled from overseas into Democrat campaigns, and more.
It was President Donald Trump who signed a memo calling for a crackdown on “straw donors” and foreign money in American campaigns. That instructed Bondi to take appropriate action on the issues, and offenders.
A report at Center Square said the memo cited documentation of “significant fraud schemes” involving ActBlue and donations made through the organization just ahead of the 2024 election that came “from foreign internet protocol addresses using prepaid cards” that could involve illegal behavior.
The new letter is from the House Committee on House Administration, and its chief, Rep. Bryan Steil, R-Wis.
“The oversight has uncovered that ActBlue has weak fraud-prevention practices and overlooks bad actors, including foreign actors, who take advantage of the platform to make illicit political donations,” the letter said. “ActBlue’s concerning activities may have a direct effect on U.S. political campaigns and elections.”
Actually, various Republican groups have been investigating ActBlue since 2023, when Steil launched a probe into the way the group verified donors, or didn’t.
Documentation already has shown that some donors have made thousands of donations, amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars, even though the donors are retirees on fixed incomes.
The organization abruptly fell into disarray this year, after the New York Times “reported on March 5 that at least seven senior staffers resigned in late February, including its top legal officer. The reason for the exodus is not yet known.”

ACTBLUE BUSTED: DONATIONS MADE IN MY NAME—TO KANSAS?!
This is criminal identity theft, plain and simple.
How did ActBlue get my name, attach it to donations I never made, and funnel cash to candidates in Kansas—a place I’ve never even been?
