You know it's bad when NYT is reporting on ActBlue.

Quote:

From NYT:The firm concluded that ActBlue's chief executive had given a potentially misleading response to congressional Republican investigators in a 2023 letter explaining how the organization vetted donations to ensure that they were not illegally coming from foreign citizens.

Here is link to the letter:

Back to the article. Here is the main issue is the CEO said vs what ActBlue did:

Quote:

The letter from the chief executive, Regina Wallace-Jones, said ActBlue carried out "multilayered" screenings of contributions that helped "root out" those from overseas. In fact, the law firm found, some of the steps she had described were not always followed.
"This presents a substantial risk for ActBlue," the law firm, Covington & Burling, wrote in one of two memos expressing legal concerns. One memo raised the specter of a criminal investigation if prosecutors believed that ActBlue had tried to conceal facts about its efforts to prevent foreign contributions.


Federal election law prohibits foreign citizens or people who are not permanent residents from donating directly to federal candidates or political action committees. Lying to or obstructing Congress is a crime.
The memos instigated a meltdown at the highest levels of ActBlue, one of the Democratic Party's most vital financial organs.


Here is the link to NYT article sorry it's behind a paywall: ActBlue has issues with Vetting Foreign Donations

But The Ruthless Podcast covered this story at 28:55 mark goes into the details. Enjoy!

I wish the Republicans would use this to bankrupt them, but we all know that won't happen.

ActBlue has been a money laundering operation since it's inception for team blue. It's primary goal is to funnel Chinese/European money into the Democrat party's coffers.

And not just the Neville Roy Singham/Soros types, but via small dollar donations;

The NGO schemes have been exposed over the past year, the question is will there be any ramifications? This is how they got Mamdami elected in NYC so they (CCP-dems) see it as a big win:

Data republican has tons more, for those interested in the infuriating details.

Don't worry! The democrats and libs say there's no election fraud and it's racist to need an ID to vet you as being you, a valid American, when voting.

Just trust them, they would never be dishonest!

Next you're going to tell me that 81,000,000 actual US citizens didn't vote for Joe Biden.

The hell you say?!

Democrats love the EU 'free healthcare' programs (subsidized by us, btw), but never talk about their voting requirements/standards.

And nothing will happen to them, and they'll keep right on at it.

They will sacrifice ActBlue when they have the pieces in place to carry on their work. I suspect they are ready to move forward or the article from NYT would have never seen the light of day.

Democrats stopped using Sweden as an example when they realized that in Sweden - the "poorer" you are, the higher your percentage of income taxes.

If you are "poor" you use a higher percentage of government services, so you pay a higher percentage of your income in taxes. It also ensures that you have tremendous skin in the game.

So the logic is sound. Another reason the Bernie Bros stopped using Sweden as an example.

Act blue is by definition misleading and lying about everything they do. Democrats cheat; that's how they win.

An organized criminal conspiracy to evade campaign finance law puts everyone involved at risk of charges. They should all be charged if they were conspiring to unlawfully launder foreign funds into US campaign donations.

The only way to stop it is jail time for anyone that knew about it. Not just the c-suites but their management downline.

Otherwise Actblue will quickly be reincorporated and reincarnated as a mirror entity with a different name and bank account.

Liberalism - ideas so good, that they have to lie, cheat and build walls to keep everyone on board.

"Misled" That is what crooked people do when then want to dodge the truth.
