This method of MONEY LAUNDERING goes back at least to the Clintons’ Arkansas days. The ‘RAT corruption toolkit has many, many tools.
Typical GOP move. Make noise too little and too late.
Act Blue has been a known criminal enterprise for years. What does Ken think is going to happen now?
Trump needs come in with this sort of data, pick a decent person to head the FEC and tell them: “You have 3 months to make heads roll and make BIG changes. If you give me nothing in 3 months, you are out. I need weekly updates. I need progress. I need speed. Show me something.”
Give the principals at Act Blue the “Trump Treatment”. That is, file charges in a Texas court: fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, racketeering, RICO, money laundering, wire fraud, etc. And, to the extent any of the alleged donors were located in Texas, charge them also with identity theft & illegal impersonation. I’m sure there are also State election laws and campaign finance laws that are being violated. Nothing is preventing the Texas AG from filing STATE charges against them.
Act Blue needs to turn back on the Address Verification System (AVS) when receiving credit card transactions. It has been turned off since Obama.
There is no good reason for a merchant to ever turn AVS off.
