Elon Musk, owner of the social media platform X, has had it. According to the New York Post, in a recent appearance on the leftist “I’ve Had It” podcast with insufferable host Jennifer Welch, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California insisted that Musk “needs to answer” for the “4.5 million children around the world who he possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID” while Musk ran President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE, in early 2025. “Time to sue this liar,” Musk wrote Tuesday on X. But Musk, who recently became the world’s first trillionaire, did not...

DogeDesigner @cb_doge BREAKING: Elon Musk calls for the arrest of Ro 'the Robber' Khanna. The U.S. Department of Justice announced that a USAID official and several executives pleaded guilty in a bribery scheme involving more than $550 million in contracts. Yet Ro Khanna is claiming Elon should be investigated over DOGE spending cuts. The standard applied by DOGE was very simple: if taxpayer money is being sent as aid, there should be a way to verify who received it and make sure the money isn’t being stolen or misused. The DOJ is uncovering corruption connected to USAID contracts, Ro Khanna...

WASHINGTON — The leaders of three Republican House committees threatened Monday to hold Democratic fundraising powerhouse ActBlue in contempt of Congress after the firm refused to turn over more than 400 documents, citing attorney-client privilege. A letter from House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil (R-Wis.), Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), and Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) gave ActBlue until Friday to provide the messages, including statements by two members of its legal team indicating the fundraiser was not being forthcoming about overseas donations that were illegally funneled to Democratic campaigns. “These documents reportedly contain evidence that ActBlue accepted...

As an Oregon man is set to be arraigned on domestic terrorism charges, KATU has learned more about the alleged motive behind the fires. Ethan Noble Burlingame emailed a "declaration of war" against the U.S. and expressed an intent to "cause suffering, destruction and terror" and "burn down the empire," according to prosecutors. According to the arrest warrant filed by Wheeler County District Attorney Gretchen Ladd, Burlingame emailed his intent to a Florida resident under the username Rottenheart in the early morning hours of June 1. Later that morning, a fire destroyed an unoccupied building in Fossil, near Burlingame's home...

Just when the Democrats seem to be finished, Gavin swoops in with truckloads of diapers. he Democrat party is facing such a host of seemingly intractable problems -- structural, financial, legal, and ideological -- that it will be close to a miracle if it survives after this year’s midterms. The below-deck shuffles -- encouraging illegal alien votes, manipulating the census, making crooked voting almost impossible to check, and stuffing their pockets with illegal contributions through ACT Blue and pay-to-play schemes of USAID and NGOs -- are all suddenly being exposed and blocked. Empty PocketsJeff Childers has done a thorough job...

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton fired back at the ActBlue Democratic donation organization after it filed a lawsuit Friday accusing him of violating the Constitution. Paxton filed a lawsuit last month accusing ActBlue of illegally accepting donations forbidden by campaign laws. The portal has faced similar allegations from Republicans for years. The ActBlue lawsuit accused Paxton of violating the organization's First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of the Constitution. "ActBlue is trying to take me down," Paxton responded on social media. "I sued the fundraising platform for deceiving Americans by lying about its donation processes that allow fraudulent and foreign donations....

Raymond Eugene Chandler III has been charged with Influencing, Impeding or Retaliating against a Federal Official by Threatening a Family Member and Influencing, Impeding or Retaliating against a Federal Official by Threat, according to an unsealed affidavit from May 1. One voicemail message Chandler allegedly sent to the unnamed member of Congress graphically depicts a scenario Chandler hoped the congressman would imagine where wealth protestors have surrounded his home before "they slit your throat and they slit your daughter’s throat and they slit everyone’s throat." Authorities say that Chandler left a second message to the congressman, saying: "You've probably getting...

A man taken into custody after gunfire rang out at the White House Correspondents’ Assn. dinner on Saturday was identified by law enforcement sources as 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen, of Torrance. Allen was first identified by the Associated Press, which cited unnamed law enforcement sources. Another official not authorized to speak publicly about the ongoing investigation told The Times that Allen was the suspect and that authorities were in the process of obtaining warrants to search addresses associated with him in Torrance. U.S. Atty. for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro says the suspect is being charged with two counts...

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced that his office has filed a lawsuit against ActBlue in Tarrant County, Texas, following a multi-year investigation into the fundraising platform’s compliance with election laws. The lawsuit, filed in Fort Worth, alleges that ActBlue misled both Congress and the public while failing to follow federal and state requirements designed to prevent improper or illegal political donations. During an exchange with commentator Benny Johnson, Paxton confirmed the legal action and outlined the basis for the case. “ I assume you've heard of ActBlue. We just filed a lawsuit this morning in Tarrant County, which is...

Democrats send swat teams when evidence of illegal behavior surfaces. Republicans, well, they issue reports. The summary is: the Democrats ActBlue fundraising apparatus is a scheme to launder foreign funds and hide large donor activity through a process of straw (fake) small amount donors. The House Judiciary Committee investigated as media reports of the fraud began to surface. The House sent subpoenas to five key ActBlue witnesses. The witnesses showed up and plead the fifth WASHINGTON — ActBlue employees invoked their Fifth Amendment right at least 146 times in depositions with congressional committees investigating alleged donor fraud on the fundraising...

The Dems’ mega fundraising platform’s key staffers took the Fifth scores of times in depositions, according to the report ‘Fraud on ActBlue, Part II.’ he leftists at ActBlue got some ’splainin’ to do. Of course, that’s hard to do when you’re taking the Fifth. The Democrats’ favorite — and allegedly crooked — fundraising platform is under greater scrutiny in the latest joint interim staff report from the House’s Administration, Judiciary, and Oversight and Government Committees. The report, “Fraud on ActBlue, Part II: Illicit Foreign Donations and a Cover-Up Spur Mass Resignations and Firings on ActBlue’s Legal and Compliance Team,” sheds...

BREAKING: I just filed a landmark lawsuit against ActBlue for deceiving Americans by lying about its donation processes that allow fraudulent and foreign donations.

House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan, House Oversight Chair James Comer and House Administration Chair Bryan Steil vowed Monday to continue their probe into how ActBlue vets foreign donations after a report indicated it may have lied to Congress. A New York Times report last week found that a law firm for ActBlue warned the company last year that it may have misled Congress in a 2023 letter that claimed it used "multilayered” screenings of contributions to help “root out” donations from overseas, but the law firm found that some steps were not always followed. The lawmakers said the report...

This article is based on internal legal memos, emails, resignation letters, Slack messages and interviews with current and former ActBlue employees. In early 2025, a law firm working for ActBlue, the Democratic fund-raising behemoth, delivered the organization a startling warning. The firm concluded that ActBlue’s chief executive had given a potentially misleading response to congressional Republican investigators in a 2023 letter explaining how the organization vetted donations to ensure that they were not illegally coming from foreign citizens. The letter from the chief executive, Regina Wallace-Jones, said ActBlue carried out “multilayered” screenings of contributions that helped “root out” those from...

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche suggested that the Department of Justice is investigating ActBlue after a New York Times report said that ActBlue might have lied to Congress about vetting foreign donations. Blanche told TV show host Jesse Waters: "That's a priority of this administration and this DOJ. It's something that a lot of people have been worried about it for a very long time. You can rest assured that it includes the Department of Justice and it includes me."🚨 BREAKING: Todd Blanche indicates the DOJ is ACTIVELY INVESTIGATING ActBlue getting foreign donations and lying about it"That's a priority of...

The New York Times just confirmed what we've long suspected: ActBlue knowingly let in fraudulent foreign donations to help Democrats win. Yet another example of the left's embrace of fraud. Everyone involved must face the full weight of the law.

mean, this is unsurprising, but sort of hilarious that the network tried to cast this as some ordinary citizen town hall event. CNN held one with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and others, during which they took audience questions about the city's situation regarding the Trump administration’s deportation agenda. Two people, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, have been killed as they recklessly interfered in police actions. Good rammed into an ICE agent and got shot on January 7. Pretti tussled with Border Patrol agents on January 24. Both were left-wing activists and agitators whose own actions got them killed. Did they...

Massive left-wing funding from ACTBLUE goes into this. It is happening RIGHT NOW against ICE. "She is a professional protester. I found her at almost 100 different protests. Let's look at her portfolio, shall we? Here's her outside Trump Tower saying TikTok time's up.""Here's her saying ban guns, not drag. Amazing. This is her telling us that lies have consequences."

We're about to find out.If proven true, it will be the largest taxpayer-funded money laundering operation in history.Here's how it could work:NGOs take federal money.Those NGOs spin up LLCs they fully own.Those LLCs then donate directly into political campaigns.A 501(c)(3) can’t donate to campaigns, everyone knows that, but a 501(c)(3) can own unlimited LLCs. Those LLCs are “disregarded entities”, tax-exempt, 'mission-aligned', and free to donate.Now scale it.What if you have ten thousand LLCs, EACH donating $2,000?That’s $20 million per candidate without tripping a single alarm.We’ve already identified multiple daycare-linked...

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation agents raided the Millersville Police Department on Wednesday, executing a search warrant as the criminal investigation into the troubled agency enters a dramatic new phase. A team of agents was also seen executing a separate search warrant at the White House residence of the department's conspiracy-minded assistant police chief, Shawn Taylor. "I can confirm that a search warrant execution is underway at the Millersville Police Department as part of an ongoing investigation," TBI spokesperson Susan Niland said in an email. She later confirmed the search at the address where Taylor resides
