ActBlue’s own CEO sat before Congress in June and invoked the Fifth Amendment 22 times.
The platform – the financial backbone of every major Democrat campaign in America – just got caught with a new donor who says her name was used for more than 16,000 contributions she didn’t make.
And AOC, Bernie Sanders, and Ilhan Omar are still cashing the checks from ActBlue.
An 88-Year-Old Woman Living in a Trailer Has 16,000 Donations in Her Name
Elizabeth Waffle is 88 years old.
She lives in a trailer down a dirt road in Milan, Michigan, after her house burned down two years ago.
She has no computer.
She has spotty internet service.
Federal Election Commission records say she has made more than 16,000 political contributions totaling nearly $150,000 through ActBlue since 2020.
That’s eight donations a day, every day, for five years straight – averaging $9.18 a pop.
“One hundred and fifty thousand? Hell no, I don’t have that kind of money,” Waffle told reporter Charlie LeDuff of the Michigan Enjoyer in a now-viral video.
She acknowledged making small donations through ActBlue – she disputed the $150,000.
“I don’t see $150,000,” she said. “That’s very abnormal and I think it’s wrong. I think there’s something in there that’s off.”
ActBlue responded by saying it had “zero tolerance for fraud.”
Then it kept processing donations for AOC, Bernie Sanders, Ilhan Omar, and the Democratic National Committee.
