Democrats could be in major trouble. The FBI is about to expose them big time.
And the Democrat Party has been threatened with an FBI investigation that could cause all hell to break loose.
Congressman Biggs Urges FBI to Probe ActBlue Over Election Integrity Concerns
In a bold move, Representative Andy Biggs from Arizona has fired off a letter to the FBI, pressing for a deep dive into ActBlue, the Democratic Party’s go-to fundraising platform. Biggs is sounding the alarm, alleging that ActBlue might be a weak link in the chain of federal campaign finance laws, potentially compromising the fairness of American elections.
In his Thursday missive to FBI Director Kash Patel, Biggs highlighted a troubling discovery: “In 2024, President Biden’s Treasury Department found hundreds of suspicious transactions with ActBlue reported by banks.” This revelation fuels his call for action, spotlighting what he sees as a pressing threat.
The issue isn’t new to Capitol Hill. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, alongside the Committee on House Administration, have been digging into these claims for some time. However, Biggs notes that their efforts hit a wall under the previous administration, which he says dragged its feet on handing over key documents. This week, Oversight Chairman James Comer and Administration Chairman Bryan Steil turned up the heat, renewing their push for answers with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
Biggs’ letter zeroes in on a specific worry shared by many Republicans: ActBlue’s lax verification processes might be an open door for foreign players—think China, Venezuela, or Russia—to meddle in U.S. elections through so-called straw donations.
Adding weight to his case, he points out that nineteen state attorneys general have raised their own red flags about ActBlue, citing everything from fraud and money laundering to shady credit card use and odd donation patterns.
“It must be emphasized that these allegations, were they to prove true, would indicate a serious threat to the integrity of our elections, besides the victimization of American citizens,” Briggs said in his letter to Patel. He’s not mincing words, urging the FBI to launch a full-scale investigation into ActBlue’s operations.
Fox News Digital reached out to ActBlue for a statement but came up empty-handed. Meanwhile, Biggs didn’t hold back in his comments to the outlet: “The allegations against ActBlue are alarming and, if true, threaten the integrity of our Republic. I’m thankful for the work Director Patel is doing to restore our justice system, and I look forward to working with him to uncover the truth about ActBlue.”
This isn’t a solo crusade. For months, GOP members of the House Administration Committee and other Republican figures have been hammering ActBlue over what they call flimsy donor vetting.
Last year, GOP Representative Bryan Steil from Wisconsin argued, “Following widespread allegations of fraudulent donations being reported to the FEC by ActBlue, one of the largest fundraising platforms in the country, this emergency rulemaking is necessary to reassure the American people that ActBlue is taking the necessary steps to protect its donors.”
The heat turned up last October when House Republicans slapped ActBlue with a subpoena, aiming to tighten up campaign finance rules and plug gaps they say leave the system vulnerable. ActBlue fired back at Newsweek, dismissing the probes as “nothing more than a partisan political attack and scare tactic to undermine the power of Democratic and progressive small-dollar donors. We welcome the opportunity to respond to these frivolous claims.”
Earlier this week, the House Oversight Committee accused the Biden administration of deliberately stalling its ActBlue investigation. In a joint statement, Steil, Comer, and Representative Nick Langworthy of New York wrote, “The Committees remain concerned with recent reports suggesting fraud and evasion of campaign finance law by individuals exploiting online contribution platforms, especially ActBlue.”
They pointed out that ActBlue only recently started requiring basic safeguards like Card Verification Values (CVV) for online transactions—a step they say was long overdue.
The plot thickened with a letter from California Representative Darrell Issa to the Treasury Department, first flagged by the Free Press. Issa is pushing the Trump administration to investigate “credible allegations” that ActBlue might be breaking federal law by letting terror-linked groups tap into its platform.
“Despite the detailed reporting and the reasonable suspicion that our nation’s laws had been violated, the Biden-Harris Treasury Department refused to substantively address these explosive revelations,” Issa charged. He went further, suggesting that ActBlue’s ties to certain groups could hint at “a wider commitment to financing and facilitating attacks on Israel and Jewish people in America and around the globe.”
Even tech titan Elon Musk has jumped into the fray. In a Sunday X post, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO blamed ActBlue-funded groups for recent protests at Tesla dealerships, linking them to his work with the Trump administration. “An investigation has found 5 ActBlue-funded groups responsible for Tesla ‘protests’: Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise & Resist, Indivisible Project and Democratic Socialists of America,” Musk wrote, naming liberal heavyweight George Soros among the alleged funders.
As the accusations pile up, Biggs and his allies are clear: they want answers, and they want them now. Whether the FBI takes up the charge could shape the next chapter in this unfolding saga.
