In a seismic move aimed at safeguarding U.S. elections from foreign interference and domestic corruption, President Donald J. Trump has issued a presidential memorandum ordering the Department of Justice and Treasury Department to launch a full-scale investigation into alleged illegal money laundering operations conducted through the Democrat-affiliated fundraising platform ActBlue.
This comes more than two years after explosive reporting first uncovered what has now become known as the “Voter Mule” scandal—a covert operation involving massive quantities of straw donations funneled to Democrat campaigns.
President Trump’s Order: A National Security Directive
President Trump’s directive, issued on Thursday, reads like a national security warning:
“There is troubling evidence that online fundraising platforms have been willing participants in schemes to launder excessive and prohibited contributions… including foreign donations.”
According to the memo, platforms like ActBlue have detected at least 22 significant fraud campaigns, with nearly half showing a foreign nexus. In a 30-day snapshot of the 2024 election cycle alone, 237 foreign IP addresses were used to make donations via prepaid cards, a well-known tactic for concealing the source of illegal contributions.
Key Points from the Trump Memorandum:
-
Targets “straw donor” schemes—where real contributions are broken into fake, small-dollar ones under phony names
-
Cites potential foreign influence—including donations routed through foreign IPs and dummy accounts
-
Directs Attorney General and Treasury Secretary to take “all lawful authority” to investigate and prosecute
-
Mandates a full report to be submitted to the President within 180 days
“These activities undermine the integrity of our electoral process,” Trump declared. “This is a national disgrace, and it will not stand.”
The End of the ActBlue Gravy Train?
ActBlue, a cornerstone of Democrat digital fundraising, is now under a federal microscope. If the allegations prove true, tens of millions of dollars in DNC war chests could be tainted by fraud—and legal fallout could redefine campaign finance in America.
Even more alarming, the memo reveals direct national security concerns with evidence pointing to foreign actors actively attempting to influence U.S. elections.
Trump Takes the Gloves Off
This aggressive move is part of a larger 2025 effort by President Trump to restore integrity to American elections, following years of skepticism over fraudulent ballots, illegal donations, and digital platform manipulation.
With the 2026 midterms looming, this investigation could shake the very foundations of Democrat fundraising.
“We warned the nation in 2022,” said a Gateway Pundit spokesperson. “Now, thanks to President Trump, the deep rot is finally being exposed.”
Expect subpoenas, arrests, and political shockwaves as DOJ and Treasury begin combing through years of donation data, IP logs, and financial records.
The question is no longer whether fraud occurred—but how deep it goes, who was behind it, and how many elections it may have tilted.
America is watching. The investigation has begun.
