FEC Data Shows Democrat’s ActBlue Using Money Mules To Funnel Millions [VIDEO]
RVM ^ | July 25, 2024 | RVM News Staff

During a recent segment on Newsmax, Carl Higbie exposed a troubling pattern of suspicious donations to Democratic campaigns, suggesting a potential large-scale operation funneling untraceable money. Higbie’s investigation, fueled by data from Election Watch and the Federal Election Commission (FEC), uncovered thousands of small donations that raise serious questions about their legitimacy.

“The measure in politics, unfortunately, is how much money you have raised,” Higbie began. “Ironically, it’s also the easiest thing to track. So we did, and holy rusted metal Batman, did a bunch of people find a bunch of stuff that appears to not add up on where and how that money is getting into Democrat coffers.”

According to Higbie, over $200 million in political donations have been funneled through ActBlue, the Democrats’ fundraising platform, from a small group of individuals, predominantly over the age of 65, retired, and of lower to middle income. “From our research, it appears that these people, most of them, don’t even know these donations are being made in their name. It’s not their money,” he said.

It appears that some retired folks have plenty of time and money to donate to the Dims. For instance, seventy one donations in a single day is impressive. /s

Just another example of the “Ends justify the Means!” Group at work destroying the Law to achieve their goal.

The Trump campaign filed a complaint on Tuesday with the FEC accusing Biden and Harris of violating campaign finance laws by rolling over Biden’s campaign funds to Harris. The complaint came after Biden’s team had illegally amended the name of its campaign committee Sunday to “Harris for President.”

What happens to the $240M Biden raised for reelection,
when he was selected in the primary by 14 million voters?
<><>It’s a complicated FEC issue.
<><>Biden’s reelection efforts raised a total of $240 million at the end of June 2024.
<><>Those funds are split across the DNC, allied committees and Biden’s campaign committee, itself.
<><>The Biden campaign committee, alone, holds $95.9 million as of the end of last month.
<><>Biden has now transferred $91 million to Kamala
<><>The FEC chair intimated that Harris might not actually be eligible to access the funds.
<><>He pointed to this regulation: 11 C.F.R. § 110.1(b)(3): “If the candidate is not a candidate in the general election, all contributions made for the general election shall be either returned or refunded to the contributors or redesignated ..., or reattributed ..., as appropriate.”


Dems Seem Nervous About Kamala Maybe Losing Her $100M War Chest
Biden/Harris illegally altered an official document submitted to a federal agency

By Katie Pavlich, July 24, 2024, townhall.com

Within hours of President Joe Biden announcing he was suspending his 2024 campaign for the White House, which he did through a letter posted on X, his campaign quickly moved to change from the “Biden for President” to the “Harris for President” on official Federal Election Commission forms. They did this so Harris can access nearly $100 million in already raised campaign funds.

But according to FEC Commissioner Sean Cooksey, a transfer of funds to Harris isn’t that simple. Election law attorney Charlie Spies agrees. The Trump campaign filed a complaint with the FEC Monday over the move, which could force the commission to at least consider whether the change is in compliance with the law and make a ruling.

“Kamala Harris is in the process of committing the largest campaign finance violation in American history and she is using the Commission’s own forms to do it,” the complaint states. “The Commission must not and cannot sit idly by while one candidate takes nearly one hundred million dollars from the authorized committee of another, in violation of the Act and the will of the donors who gave the money in the first place.”

“If Kamala Harris were a candidate for something in 2024, federal law requires her to have filed a Statement of Candidacy and for her name to have appeared in the name of her authorized committee. But Kamala Harris’s name does not appear in the name of her purported authorized committee, ‘Biden for President,’ and, until Sunday, no Statement of Candidacy existed for her. Then Sunday, rather than filing her own Statement of Candidacy, she merely altered Joe Biden’s to replace his name with hers. There is no mechanism under the Act for one individual to end another’s federal candidacy by simply amending the other’s Form 2.

Moreover, in that purported amended Form 2 Harris designated ‘Biden for President’ as her principal campaign committee and then renamed it. Altering a document submitted to a federal agency is a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1519.3,” it continues, arguing the transfer is, “a brazen money grab that would constitute the single largest excessive contribution and biggest violation in the history of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended.”

In the meantime, Democrats seem very nervous about Cooksey’s skepticism and are doing their best to intimidate the FEC into silence.

Is there a way for the GOP to engage in lawfare to get some kind of injunction?

I’m so old I remember when the leftists assured us that McCain-Feingold was taking money out of politics. Looks like it just hid political donations better.

So the question I have is if we know the funds are illegitimate, then why aren’t they being seized until we can figure out who is making these donations and get to the bottom of it?

If the FEC is polluted with Dems, they’ll just rubber stamp her documents and away they go. The Democratic Party is the most powerful mob in the world.

To the Clintons. Remember all the questions that were never answered about how Buddhist monks who had taken vows of poverty were able to donate millions (always in small, untraceable amounts) to the Clinton-Gore campaign?

If you turn a blind eye to money laundering, you encourage more of it.

Very good article.

I think it might be the Iranians paying back Obama and SloJo, thanking them for all the cash, and hoping Camela continues the largess.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Just more money laundering by the Dims.
