The Democratic fundraising machine under GOP investigation is fighting back
The report says ActBlue supervisors told fraud analysts to give donors the benefit of the doubt despite red flags in transactions.
- House Judiciary, Administration, and Oversight and Government Reform committees released an interim report Wednesday accusing ActBlue of maintaining inadequate safeguards against illegal foreign donations, citing internal logs and staff communications.
- Investigators contend ActBlue adopted a 'more lenient approach' to fraud prevention in 2024, weakening safeguards despite internal warnings that such changes would increase fraudulent contributions.
- Internal logs reveal supervisors instructed analysts to give donors 'the benefit of the doubt,' even when transactions displayed potential foreign activity, with one case involving Vice President Kamala Harris donations labeled 'good to accept' despite unusual patterns.
- ActBlue dismissed the findings as 'another political stunt,' citing a forensic analysis they say undermines the GOP allegations, while a spokesperson stated, 'There's nothing to see here.'
- A law firm representing ActBlue met congressional investigators Friday to present evidence that the platform properly verified contributions, while Rep. Jim Jordan emphasized on Thursday that foreign donations to elections remain illegal.
