Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who has seen a tsunami of Democratic small-dollar donations flood the South Carolina Senate race, says the sources of the massive amounts of money flowing through ActBlue and other groups need to be reviewed by policymakers.

Graham says that Congress has little idea who’s behind the huge inflows of money that have given his opponent, Jaime Harrison, and other Democratic challengers a major fundraising advantage over GOP incumbents in the final weeks of the campaign.

“Where’s all this money coming from ActBlue coming from? How easy would it be to just have a bunch of pre-paid credit cards?” he asked The Hill.

The small dollar donations to these Democrat front groups and candidates need to be investigated and moreover, every donation, no matter how small, to these front groups and candidates should be made public.

Graham may be out of a job within a few weeks - it’d have been nice if he’d woken up and investigated ActBlue over a decade ago. Congressional Republicans are overwhelmingly complacent and living in the past.

Yeah well he should have been looking into this a long time ago. Too late for this election. Probably on purpose.

It’s long been known that a well written letter is among the best weapons a Republican can use, and Graham excels at letter writing.

[Lucy] Graham can’t even investigate coup conspirators after 4 years. She’s asking us to kick the football again...
