Congressional investigations reveal shocking allegations against ActBlue, the Democratic Party’s main fundraising platform. Reports claim billions in potentially illegal foreign donations, straw donors, zombie donors, and prepaid cards flooded the system — with ActBlue’s own law firm warning of serious violations.
House committees (Jordan, Comer, Steil), Texas AG Ken Paxton, and a Trump presidential memo are all investigating. Internal Covington & Burling memos, mass resignations, and whistleblowers raise questions about whether ActBlue knowingly facilitated illegal campaign contributions.
Is this systemic fraud or politically motivated attacks? Watch the full breakdown.
Written and hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.
