.@RepBryanSteil, who's helping investigate @actblue for its campaign fundraising, said it's "telling" that in a hearing Wednesday, Democrats didn't address accusations that the platform weakened fraud standards leading up to the 2024 election. @reportsbychar

"Democrats tried to distract and make it about the Republicans."

The CEO of Democratic fundraising powerhouse ActBlue appearing before Congress today as Republicans investigate the organization for donor fraud... and @Connor_R_Hansen joined us with all the details.

[The National Desk @TND]

⬇️The CEO of the largest Democratic fundraising platform pleaded the Fifth nearly two dozen times Wednesday rather than answer questions from lawmakers. Her appearance came amid allegations that ActBlue misled Congress about alleged donor fraud.

@RepBryanSteil, Chairman of the Committee on House Administration, told @GeoffHarrisTV, Regina Wallace-Jones initially volunteered to appear before his committee in May, but on Monday, her attorneys requested a subpoena for her testimony, which he sent 24 hours later.

.@actblue failed to take fraud seriously on their platform.

A memo for new associates that we acquired stated "if an otherwise legitimate donor uses a fake name, we would want to accept their donations"

Q: "In November 2023, when you wrote that letter, did every ActBlue donation that provided an address outside the United States require passport information?"

A: "I respectfully decline to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution."

@RepBryanSteil pressed ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones on whether the digital platform consistently required foreign passport documentation to verify the identities of donors listing addresses outside the United States. @AmandaHead @jsolomonReports

CONGRESS TURNS UP THE HEAT ON ACTBLUE

“We know and have evidence that ActBlue misled Congress…and looked the other way when the evidence was clear that they needed to be forthcoming, and they needed to make sure that fraud was not existing outside their platform.” - @RepBryanSteil

[Tom Emmer @GOPMajorityWhip]

ActBlue had the chance to answer honestly about potentially accepting illegal foreign donations which may have benefited Democrat candidates.

Instead, their CEO pleaded the fifth on EVERY question.

Not a good look.
