The Democratic fundraising machine under GOP investigation is fighting back

  • House Republicans allege that ActBlue weakened fraud-prevention policies twice in 2024, resulting in increased fraudulent political donations, including from foreign sources, which ActBlue denies.
  • The GOP claims that ActBlue used lax verification methods, such as checking only the format of passport numbers without validating their authenticity, and concealed evidence of illegal foreign donations.
  • Internal communications suggest that ActBlue staff were instructed to "give the benefit of the doubt" to suspicious donations and accept contributions despite red flags indicating foreign origin.
  • Several ActBlue officials, including the CEO Regina Wallace-Jones, have invoked the Fifth Amendment during congressional questioning, while ActBlue describes the probe as a politically motivated attack on their fundraising efforts.
