Speaker of the House Mike Johnson Wednesday shared a website where citizens can check whether their name has been used for any political donations without their permission amid scrutiny of the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue.
House Republicans recently widened their probe into the ActBlue platform investigating whether four foreign adversaries--Iran, Russia, Venezuela, and China--have funneled money into Democratic Party campaigns in 2024, Just the News reported. The lawmakers specifically demanded any Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) related to monies passing through Act Blue that were filed by U.S. financial institutions as part of their money-laundering monitoring activities.
"It has long been suspected that leading online Democratic Party fundraising platforms may be used in a fraudulent manner," Johnson wrote in a post to X.
"Examples are now being brought forward to show that small dollar donations have been made in the name of U.S. citizens who did NOT authorize or have any knowledge of the transactions," he continued. "That is a crime."
