Finally, we are taking out their illegal fundraising schemes one by one, from money laundered through "nonprofit NGOs" to Act Blue, which falsely files illegal foreign donations as coming from Americans (who then report, "I never donated to a Democrat in my life!")
Three House committees are banding together to subpoena Democratic fundraising giant ActBlue on Tuesday, accusing the platform of having accepted "fraudulent or illegal" donations for left-wing candidates.
"In light of allegations that online fundraising platforms that serve as conduits for political donations have accepted fraudulent donations from domestic and foreign sources, the Committees are conducting oversight to inform potential legislative reforms," House investigators' letter to ActBlue read.
"To further our oversight and legislative reform efforts, on April 2, 2025, the Committees requested documents and communications related to internal misconduct and whistleblower retaliation at ActBlue. Although ActBlue initially provided documents voluntarily, it has since suspended its cooperation with the Committees. Therefore, the Committee on House Administration must resort to compulsory process to obtain the requested materials."

Their letter said ActBlue had initially appeared to work with the House committees in April and May before having "abruptly changed course" in June.
"ActBlue did not provide a legitimate legal basis for refusing future cooperation with the Committees, and instead made baseless and untrue allegations about the Committees' motives," the lawmakers said.
...
At the time, Steil accused ActBlue of failing to properly account for private citizens' security by not requiring a CVV number for credit card donations. That has since changed, however, and ActBlue does currently require that information.
...
The subpoena gives ActBlue a deadline of Aug. 12 to turn over documents lawmakers are seeking.
They're subpoenaeing ActBlue's CEO.
Three House committees on Tuesday subpoenaed ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones for documents in the panels' probe of the online fundraising platform used for Democratic campaigns.

"In light of allegations that online fundraising platforms that serve as conduits for political donations have accepted fraudulent donations from domestic and foreign sources, the Committees are conducting oversight to inform potential legislative reforms," the chairmen wrote.
...
After initially handing over documents to the committees, ActBlue informed the panels last month "that it would not make further voluntary productions until the Committees provided 'more information' about our oversight," according to the chairmen.
In other words: Tell us what crimes you suspect before we answer your questions.
That is, obviously, not how this works.
"ActBlue did not provide a legitimate legal basis for refusing future cooperation with the Committees, and instead made baseless and untrue allegations about the Committees' motives."
