The O’Keefe Media Group has published a video revealing the shock of Texas donors upon discovering unauthorized donations made in their name to ActBlue, a major Democrat fundraising organization.
Numerous donors in Texas were surprised to learn that multiple donations totaling thousands of dollars had been made to ActBlue without their consent.
Previously, James O’Keefe had drawn attention to the ActBlue donation mules in a report.
In the past year, Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) sent a letter to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) requesting an investigation into the hundreds of thousands of small donations amounting to millions of dollars that were given to ActBlue in the last two elections.
The Texas Attorney General’s Office, led by First Assistant Brent Webster, is actively probing ActBlue’s practices. Webster stated, “Any allegation that I have undermined our investigation into Act Blue is absurd, particularly considering that I advocated for initiating the investigation. We have devoted significant resources and talented lawyers to this productive ongoing investigation… We do not comment on pending investigations but we are committed to upholding Texas law when it is violated.”
Additionally, Attorneys General from Virginia and Missouri, as well as the Secretary of State of Wyoming, have announced investigations into ActBlue following allegations of a money laundering scheme.

“I’m not rich. I don’t give that kind of money,” says Janice Bosco of Horseshoe Bay, TX, after discovering that ActBlue recorded 648 donations totaling around $16,000 in her name. Despite her disbelief, she hesitates to dispute the donations, not wanting to aid Republicans, stating “I don’t want to dispute ActBlue… If we’ve gotten by with that much money, I say hell yes,” further fueling concerns over the legitimacy of ActBlue’s fundraising practices.
Karen Roberton’s husband from Killeen, TX, was equally stunned when he learned of over $12,000 in donations to ActBlue attributed to his wife, spread across 600 transactions. “She’s given them some, but that’s it. Not $12,000,” he says, baffled by the discrepancy, only recalling small monthly contributions.
In Marble Falls, TX, Margaret Caylor’s husband was shocked to learn that over 5,000 donations, totaling around $136,000, were made in his wife’s name to ActBlue. When asked if she made the donations, he states, “Not that much money,” noting that while she has donated in the past, the figures documented are far beyond what they recall. “Laundering money maybe?” questions Caylor’s husband, referring to the integrity of ActBlue’s fundraising practices.
