President Donald Trump has directed an investigation into the Democratic campaign contribution platform ActBlue following congressional findings of potential misuse and fraud.
• Trump signed a memorandum for U. S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to investigate ActBlue.
• Evidence suggests that foreign nationals have attempted to misuse online fundraising platforms to influence U. S. elections.
• A House investigation found ActBlue had identified 22 significant fraud campaigns, with almost half linked to foreign activity.
• Reports included illegal foreign donations and "dummy" accounts making numerous contributions.
• A recent report indicated that ActBlue executives were aware of fraudulent activities but did not address them effectively.
• Trump emphasized that these actions threaten the integrity of elections and directed the Attorney General to investigate these allegations.
The investigation aims to uncover unlawful practices in online fundraising and enforce campaign finance laws.
