I once pulled a file pro-trump donations from the FEC and it was filled with names of people who donated well over the legal limit.

+1 It’s always projection with this cretin.

Good. Maybe I’ll stop getting spammed by them.

You know what, I'm happy to drive a check or a wad of cash to the DNC headquarters if needed. If he thinks this will stop Democratic donors, he's wrong about that. He's also impeding our freedom of speech.

ActBlue is an abusive, fraudulent organization as Democratic donors have discussed on DCUM at length, but law enforcement should not be weaponized exclusively against opponents of the President.

I'm happy for laws to be enforced. I just want the same laws to apply to everyone.

Democrats should come out in favor of this saying we have longed advocated for campaign finance reform and these investigations will go a long way to helping understand the fraud and abuse going on in the system currently and what needs to be put in place to combat. Also, we’d like to add the following as named entities:

Winter
Paula White ministries
AFP Action

Additionally given that President Trump issued this, we know he will be very supportive in having his own campaign systems to be the first to undergo investigation.

There is a ton of evidence indicating that ActBlue has been accepting questionable donations.

When there are 2000 small dollar donations from people who said they donated once or twice, it is time to investigate.
I remember seeing interviews of people a couple years ago who said they had never donated to ActBlue, yet their names were listed as having made multiple donations.

It's about time.

If only democrats had taken this stance the last four years, this wouldn’t be happening. They were warned repeatedly that lawfare against Trump would bring backlash.

Oh well.

Elon paid people to vote a certain way. Obviously, anything goes in this country.

This makes zero sense. Should we Venmo candidates? Then there’s no record keeping.

All my donations are on open secrets. Though I donate more than $10.

It’s so ridiculous when people compare a DOJ special counsel trying to retrieve classified docs from an ex-president with the president directing DOJ to prosecute his political adversaries for made up offenses.

Exactly. This is all deflection. Let’s return our focus to signalgate, and the 100 different scandals worthy of attention right now!

Understand what is happening, ActBlue is collecting illegal donations. either from foreign donors, or people giving over the max.
Then these donations are listed as small donations by other people. Perhaps someone like the grandfather described above, or someone who hasn't donated at all.
Take a $100,000 donation or million dollar donation and list it as a bunch of $2 donations from thousands of people, some of them on a weekly or monthly basis.

That is the allegation of its adversary. Nothing has proven that true. And the focus should be on all campaign and fundraising platforms.
