from WND:
Suspicions include money-laundering, fraud, foreign cash influencing elections
There already have been a lot of suspicions expressed that the fundraising giant ActBlue, which has delivered billions of dollars to leftists in the Democrat party, has been stepping outside the law.
In fact, Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., the chief of the House Oversight Committee, already has confirmed that, “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.
Now it looks like some answered could be coming.
A report at the Washington Examiner confirms President Donald Trump is signing a memorandum calling for a crackdown on “straw donors” and foreign money in American campaigns.
The publication said it obtained a fact sheet that instructs Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate and “take appropriate action” on allegations about the organization, which even has been accused of taking contributions from terrorists.
Specifically the review is to cover illegal “straw” or “dummy” contributions, the report said.
It cites congressional investigations that documented “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 payment processor is used by Democrats at multiple ranks and is credited with having processed more than $16 billion in donations to leftists.
It fell into disarray, however, this year, the report said, when 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.”
Republicans have charged that it accepted donations on credit cards without verification, raising the risk of fraud. And it allows contributions through PayPal, Google Pay, or Venmo, and other payments forms that cannot be traced.
