Republicans are coming for democratic fundraising platform ActBlue! The platform faces a crisis after law firm Covington & Burling warned CEO Regina Wallace-Jones may have misled Congress in 2023 about foreign donor vetting, raising the risk of criminal investigation. While her letter claimed “multilayered” screenings, some steps weren’t consistently followed, violating federal election law banning foreign contributions. The memos triggered mass resignations at the top, and ActBlue now disputes its former lawyers—amid a DOJ investigation ordered by Trump. Democrats fear destabilization of their critical fund-raising engine ahead of midterms.
