I'll start with the ACT Blue one first. I read the piece in the Carolina Journal, which was an opinion piece (doesn't men he's incorrect) and from August 2, 2024 but nothing recent that proves that ActBlue was laundering money. If anything, this guy who the article was focused on was running for Attorney General in NC (he lost), sounds like it's "lawfare" you on the right are always railing against. I mean Charlie Kirk, who's quoted in the article, is highly partisan and clearly not an unbiased journalist, nor is Ken Paxton from Texas.
Here's what amounts to the "evidence" of this article of a conspiracy to launder money: "
Could there be a simple, innocent explanation for why people who gave small amounts a few times are listed as giving large amounts many times?
Maybe. Maybe in these cases, ActBlue accidentally duplicated the same name over and over again in their reports instead of recording the legal and legitimate donor. Or, maybe ActBlue recorded the correct names and donation amounts, but the FEC got their wires crossed somehow and jumbled the data.
There could even be other non-nefarious explanations that are not as simple. But there is also the
possibility that the Democratic Party has tapped into large funding sources that can’t be legally accepted.
"It almost seems too stupid to believe they’d try to pull something like that off. Maybe they assumed that if anybody ever asked these real Democrat donors....If they were stupid enough to pull off campaign-finance fraud of this magnitude, they will have undoubtedly left a papertrail, considering how poorly hidden this conspiracy was. I would not be surprised to see congressional hearings investigating the issue in addition to the attorneys general of a few states demanding these records."
Lot's of "could ifs, maybe, possibility" but no proof.
The partisan Republican House investigated it and released it's findings December 14th, 2024 (nothing that says Dem's were proven to be laundering money), which you can read here -

So what am I missing?
