ActBlue Under Fire: James O’Keefe’s Latest Investigation Reveals Suspicious Donations
American Spectator ^ | March 31, 2023 | Scott McKay

Posted on 04/02/2023 8:11:51 AM PDT by Twotone

associate went around the country catching employees at ACORN offices on video helping out with what turned out to be a hypothetical scam involving a pimp who was setting up a brothel full of underaged girls and the products of those exploits were tumbling onto the pages of Andrew Breitbart’s then-new site BigGovernment, O’Keefe got very famous very fast.

Since then, he’s been one of the most active conservative media figures in America, pumping out investigative journalism in a fire-hose stream. Not everything has worked out, as one might imagine — when O’Keefe and his team tried a more satirical video chiding then-Sen. Mary Landrieu’s office staff for their refusal to answer their phones following Landrieu’s Obamacare vote, the senator’s allies went after him and ultimately got him enmeshed in a federal criminal prosecution for supposedly “wiretapping” her office, something he didn’t do.

And just recently, O’Keefe got into a snit with the board of Project Veritas, his investigative media organization, which resulted in his getting bounced from the company.

Nobody really thought that would end his career, and it hasn’t. He’s back with a new outfit, O’Keefe Media Group (OMG, which is a hilarious name for certain), and he’s got a bit more understated, but potentially every bit as effective investigation:

WinRed is run by idiots. Seems impossible to donate to candidates without your info going into a data base for stalkers who abuse your phone number and email address.

The number of texts I get from not WinRed but Win-Re(followed by a variety of numbers and letters) is nauseating.

“...Truck drivers report driving loads of ballots from place to place. ...”

has there been more then one report- different drivers?
There was one almost immediately after the election by a post office driver (I think a contract driver.) but it was soon retracted. Maybe retracted under duress but I read that it was retracted.

As we all know if the MAINSTREAM MEDIA has not reported on an issue, nothing has happened.

I just checked duckduckgo and there are ZERO reports by any MAINSTREAM MEDIA regarding ActBlue and mega-donations uncovered by O’Keefe.

Folks this is what were are up against. MAINSTREAM MEDIA has become full PRAVDA.

GOP needs to sue ActBlue to see how this moneys being routed in, because it’s clearly illegal.

Our FBI is too busy kissing the butts of white liberal elites and running errands for them.

The DOJ's "Lady Justice" is a whore who services democrats... so if this is illegal it won't matter. Democrat filthy lowlifes get a pass... the part of criminal by criminals and for criminals.

My outlook has grown dark. This was a coup. Any and all comers who could prove it have had to be eliminated. People love their families and will protect them. Ergo, get to the families.

The answer to your question is to look at 2nd and 3rd level happenings

They didn’t seem too distressed to find that their personal information was being used to deceive the federal government regarding illegal campaign contributions.

But then, considering the two-tiered justice system in effect in our government, why should they be?

If some guy handed you $10,000 and gave you a list of 400 donations to make...you’d have to deposit the cash/check into your checking, and eventually, the IRS would ask where the money came from.

Or would this have been strictly gift cards?

Seems like you’d have to make ten of these a day (minimum) to reach their ‘goal’. In some cases, it might have been a hundred a day.

“””Or would this have been strictly gift cards?”””


I would think the ACT BLUE criminals used prepaid credit cards to do this scheme.

And I would think the ACT BLUE criminals used CASH to buy those prepaid credit cards.

Thus making it difficult if not impossible to track down the culprits.

I would say this, after watching it. These are all retirees and it would seem like they were aware of some ‘donations’ but I think their data was stolen and someone made tens of thousands of political donations without this group aware of the situation.

Its hard to imagine that ActBlue was not aware of the situation.

My working theory is that ActBlue was set up (initially or at a later time) to launder huge contributions disguised as small contributions but did not have enough small contributors to hide the amounts they needed to move through.

The road map for the election fraud was built by Rodney Ellis and Shelia Jackson-Lee in Houston/Harris County. They stuff ballot boxes, bus in voters, canvas old folks homes, etc. This has been going on for many years.

I recall that when you donated to BLM, the page went to ActBlue. Saw that with my own eyes. Something not right about that.

and the suitcases of ballots being wheeled out from under the table during counting


Including this in your list discredits the rest. The suitcases put under the table were the same ones as were packed up a few minutes before (you can match up most of the irregular sticker patterns on the lids) that were sitting on the table. The misfeasance there is that they contrived a reason to push observers out, then started recounting without either observers or supervisors present, and rerunning batches without resetting - but people want to wail against a portion which is easily disproven and which provides cover for the actual issues.

James O'keefe is looking at these abnormalities in donations, why isn't our Congress? I type in my zip code and find 15% off all donations come from a single person (thousands of dollars a day in $100 increments).. something isn't right.

Interesting link. I now live in a small rural county in North Carolina, population 15,000. The principle little town is about 5200. Typed in my zip code, picked a name donating to ActBlue, did a filter and he has donated small amounts 135 times in 3 years of election cycles.
