Contractors for the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue have been summoned to appear before Congress amid a sweeping probe into potentially fraudulent — and even foreign-sourced — donations during the 2024 election, according to a pair of letters exclusively obtained by The Post.
The House Oversight, Judiciary and Administration Committees fired off letters to two employees of the AI-powered fraud prevention software firm Sift who worked with ActBlue — and reportedly know “critical” information about how the lead Dem funding portal adopted a “more lenient” standard for suspicious donations.

At least seven senior officials at ActBlue, including top legal staff, resigned in the weeks following the 2024 presidential election, amid reports of impending investigations into the organization’s fundraising practices. This was first noted in early March 2025, with sources pointing to internal chaos and GOP-led probes as factors. The exact timing of each resignation relative to the investigation news is unclear, but the departures were clustered within a short period post-election.
They are theatrical productions to entertain the followers.
Let's see indictments and prosecutions. That means something.

They should be summoned to a Grand Jury. Spare me the Jim Jordan et al kabuki.
All that illegal foreign money laundered by the SOROS banking system in Yerp.
I’ll help you with how the interview will go:
10 say “I don’t know”
20 say “I don’t remember”
30 say “I plead the 5th”
40 goto 10
