This certainly would explain the actions of a lot of America-Last politicians.
“Unwitting straw donors may have funneled donations from China, Russia and Iran to Democrats: House panel,” by Josh Christenson and Miranda Devine, New York Post, October 28, 2024:
The Republican-led House Administration Committee has found evidence that illegal donations from China, Russia, Iran and Venezuela may have been laundered to Democratic campaigns through the party’s online fundraising juggernaut ActBlue.
Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil (R-Wis.) wrote to ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones on Monday “to demand information on ActBlue’s donor verification policies,” which are allegedly letting US adversaries use unwitting straw donors to make political contributions.
“Our investigation has indicated that these [foreign] actors may be exploiting existing U.S. [sic] donors by making straw donations without the individuals’ or your platform’s knowledge,” Steil wrote.
“This failure to verify donor identity may have allowed foreign actors to fraudulently participate in the political process.”
ActBlue has already admitted to the committee that until recently it did not require donors to provide the card verification code (“CVV”) associated with credit or debit cards when making an online contribution — making it easy to contribute without having to confirm one’s identity.
When entering a new credit card number, donors on ActBlue must now submit their CVV.
Steil said his committee has petitioned the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to “initiate an emergency rulemaking process” to redress this.
Classified briefings are also expected with the Treasury Department, Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and FBI to help the committee further probe foreign illegal donations….

These need to be career rnding felony convicrions with massive asset seizure.

Some months ago this was reported. Hundreds of donors had made small donations, but their names kept coming up and more donations made in each name for the exact same amounts.
Just recently, TX AG, Paxton began investigating the fraud using actblue in his state.
VA is trying to take non-citizens off the voting rolls, and bo/biden/harris is suing that state.
It’s all for the fix to make sure the hyena gets in….whatever it takes, legal and illegal.

Since Russia is there in that list, can Robert S Mueller III be reinstated to look into Russian interference in this election, this time in favor of Kamala? Give him the same sweeping powers to bankrupt Dems in the way he had done in 2017-18 against Trump and his associates
somehistory says
mueller would be less than gung-ho to find any evidence against the hyena, I’m thinking.

Just wish I could be shocked by this.
SKA says
All of the enemies of the United States know that a Kamala Harris administration will spell the end of our nation.
James Lincoln says
Yes, SKA.
OLD GUY says
Our enemies have been sending funds to our Education system for decades, so why wouldn’t they be funneling millions of dollars into our elections to get favors from our political leaders down the road. We allow foreigners to purchase our farm land, high-rise office buildings in our cities, foreign corporations to own and operate factories and businesses with in our borders. This ownership of American property and business allows for easy access to passing funds to political candidates.
