Report Suggests ActBlue Misled Congress On Foreign Donation Safeguards

By Brianna Lyman | The Federalist ‘This presents a substantial risk for ActBlue.’ ActBlue told Congress in 2023 that it took “multilayered” steps to “root out” illegal donations from foreign citizens. But it turns out “some of the steps … described were not always followed,” according to a new report from The New York Times (NYT). ActBlue Chief Executive Regina Wallace-Jones claimed in a 2023 letter to Congress that ActBlue conducted “‘multilayered’ screenings of contributions that helped ‘root out’ those from overseas,” the New York Times reported.

Wallace-Jones also reportedly told Congress that ActBlue would refund don...

From party switch to $6.4 million: Examining the rise of a CD4 candidate

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice In a matter of months, Eileen Laubacher went from a newly registered Democrat with no primary voting history to the best-funded candidate in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District. That kind of political acceleration is unusual on its own. What makes it more striking is how many pieces had to move at once to get there. Her party registration, then and now In Jefferson County, Laubacher shows up as a registered Republican as far back as 1998. That didn’t change until January 2024, when she went unaffiliated, followed by a switch to Democrat two months later using her Ken Caryl address. She filed to run for Congress not long after. It would be more than four months before her voter registration was updated t...

Colorado Congresswoman Diana DeGette Named in Epstein Correspondence

By Hannah Metzger | Westword Emails between Jeffrey Epstein and Barbro Ehnbom suggest a disturbing partnership between the convicted sex offender and the Swedish businesswoman; from Ehnbom sending Epstein a photo of a “little blond girl” who she thinks would be of his “taste,” to offering up her “brainy and sensual” project manager to be Epstein’s “wife choice this year.” Amid their correspondence, a surprising name arises time and time again: Diana DeGette. The Colorado congresswoman’s name appears in over a dozen emails between Epstein and Ehnbom sent from 2009 to 2016, according to documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice. Though there is no evidence that DeGette ever communicated with Epstein directly, his emails ...

Report Claims Whitmer, Ossoff, and Booker Part of Massive Democrat Donation Laundering

By Jim Hoft, Bob Cushman | Commentary, The Gateway Pundit Guest post by Bob Cushman Once in a while, a reporter finds a story that challenges his or her ability to tell because it is so massive in terms of time and scope. He or she feels over-whelmed. This reporter feels that way, but let’s begin anyway. This story will attempt to show the reader the journey that this reporter has been on to discover what is most likely one of the largest money laundering evolutions in the history of this country. First Indications of Massive Money Laundering – 2019 Six years ago in October of 2019, I was downloading data from the FEC database, which by the way is quite easy to do. As I compiled the data I found that three Michigan Congresswomen had received about 75% of their t...

Trump’s $600M war chest breaks records, fuels GOP surge toward midterms

By Sarah Arnold | Townhall In a powerful show of momentum heading into the midterms, President Donald Trump’s political operation has amassed a substantial war chest of hundreds of millions of dollars. With grassroots enthusiasm at an all-time high and donors large and small fueling the charge, Trump’s team is positioned to reshape Congress and support candidates who will stand up for conservative values, secure borders, and economic freedom. According to reports, Trump has garnered a staggering $600 million in political donations heading into the midterm elections— an unprecedented sum in modern politics, particularly for a lame-duck president. This is the largest fundraising haul of any president at this early stage of an administration. Trump is maintaining a vigorous fundraising ...
