House GOP vows to refer ActBlue fundraising probe to incoming Trump Justice Department

House Administration Committee Chairman Brian Steil said he will refer findings from his ongoing probe into the progressive fundraising platform ActBlue to the incoming Trump Justice Department.
Steil believes the new Attorney General Pam Bondi, if confirmed, will be more than willing to probe the Democratic fundraising powerhouse over allegations it failed to implement sufficient security measures on its platform to prevent illegal foreign monies from flowing into U.S. political campaigns.
“Once Pam Bondi comes in as attorney general under the Trump administration, we then have a partner at the United States Department of Justice to look at this, to do the investigation into bad actors, and to hold anyone who is engaged in this activity accountable,” Steil told the Just the News, No Noise TV show on Thursday.
“The good news is President [Donald} Trump's coming to office in just a few short weeks. We're going to have an opportunity to move forward on the prosecutorial side, and then we in Congress have to continue this work, moving legislation forward."

This organization is huge. Could be one of the largest money laundering outfits in the world.

Read this guy’s press release from a week ago and not seeing any articulable basis that a crime has been committed. What’s the crime here?

You should take it as it was intended. But I know that is asking a lot.

Are you contending this would not constitute a crime?
quote:
“We write to you to raise an urgent concern regarding potential illicit election funding by foreign actors,” the lawmakers wrote Yellen in a letter dated Thursday. “CHA has been investigating claims that foreign actors, primarily from Iran, Russia, Venezuela, and China, may be using ActBlue to launder illicit money into U.S. political campaigns.”
They also said: “Our investigation has indicated that these actors may be exploiting existing U.S. donors by making straw donations without their knowledge.”

I’m saying there is nothing in his press release from last week that indicates ActBlue committed a crime.

Maybe you can point out the crime to me.

Are you suggesting the inquiry here begins and ends with Act Blue's subpoena response, and is long as they didn't respond with actual evidence of a crime, that should shut everything down?
Is that how such criminal inquiries typically go?

If it is his ilk, yes.
If if is his enemies, the accusation is all that matters.

I’m suggesting that without an articulable basis that ActBlue has committed a crime this is nothing more than a partisan fishing expedition.
What crime are we even looking at here?
From OP:
Is the bold part a crime?

Luckily, it's not you that needs to understand what the crime is, the new DOJ will handle that!
You can rest easy now.
