ActBlue has become the financial engine of the Democrat Party. Since its founding in 2004, the Massachusetts-based nonprofit has directed more than $16 billion to Democrat campaigns and left-wing organizations. 

In the first quarter of 2025 alone, it processed $400 million, its strongest non-election quarter ever. Democrats call this proof of grassroots enthusiasm. 

In reality, ActBlue is now the center of multiple federal investigations, accused of allowing straw donors, foreign contributions, and widespread fraud that undermines the integrity of American elections.

The Gateway Pundit was first to reveal that ActBlue received NEARLY HALF of its donations in 2019 from 4.7 million unemployed donors!

Democrats were also funneling donations to BLM that went directly to Democrat politicians.

In April 2025, President Trump issued a memorandum directing the Department of Justice to investigate ActBlue’s operations. 

According to federal investigators, the platform had been connected to twenty-two separate fraud campaigns, nearly half of which showed foreign ties. 

A House GOP report revealed that between September 2022 and November 2024, ActBlue processed nearly 1,900 fraudulent transactions. 

At least 237 of those transactions were traced to foreign IP addresses using prepaid cards in just two months of the 2024 campaign season. 

These findings suggest that a platform Democrats present as a small-dollar grassroots operation may in fact be a vehicle for foreign influence and systemic fraud.

The way ActBlue handled its own security makes these allegations even more troubling. Internal documents show that in 2024, the organization weakened its fraud detection systems not once, but twice. 

These changes allowed an additional 14 to 28 fraudulent contributions to slip past safeguards every month. 

At its worst point, the system failed to detect 6.4% of fraudulent attempts. ActBlue also operated for years without requiring CVV security codes on credit card donations, and it accepted prepaid gift cards that can be purchased anonymously. 

These policies created the perfect environment for foreign money and straw donors to flood the system, shielded from oversight.

The foreign influence concerns are not hypothetical. Investigators traced contributions to countries including Brazil, India, and Saudi Arabia. 

These donations were often structured in repeated small-dollar amounts designed to avoid detection, a method that artificially inflated ActBlue’s claim of millions of grassroots donors. 

While Democrats tout ActBlue as proof of popular support, the reality is that the same donor name can be listed hundreds of times, raising serious questions about the true origin of the money. 

This practice not only misleads the public but threatens the legitimacy of the campaign finance system.

The scandal has triggered turmoil inside ActBlue itself. In December 2024, 142 insiders—including consultants, campaign vendors, and donors—signed a letter warning that ActBlue’s lack of security protections was eroding confidence in Democrat fundraising. 

Just two months later, seven senior officials resigned, including the organization’s top legal officer and vice president of customer service. 

Union representatives described the resignations as an “alarming pattern” that revealed systemic instability. 

When the very staff responsible for donor protections are abandoning ship, it speaks volumes about the depth of the problems inside the organization.

Congress has now stepped in. The House Oversight, Judiciary, and Administration committees have issued subpoenas to top ActBlue officials, requiring them to provide sworn testimony. 

At the same time, the Department of Justice is pursuing its own criminal investigation into potential violations of federal election law. 

ActBlue has long been presented as the symbol of Democrat grassroots power. Yet the evidence now shows that it is a system vulnerable to abuse, designed in ways that opened the door to fraud and foreign interference. 

Instead of empowering ordinary Americans, ActBlue may have enabled schemes that compromised the very elections it claimed to strengthen. 

For years Democrats attacked Republicans over claims of “dark money,” but now the Democrat Party’s fundraising giant stands exposed as a machine riddled with corruption and scandal. 

The choice for Democrats is simple: fix it, or admit that their so-called grassroots platform was built on a lie.

Lehigh County Commissioner and Bethlehem Right-to-Know Officer Zachary Cole-Borghi has been arrested as part of an expansive, three-year, multi-state drug ring investigation.

District Attorney Gavin Holihan revealed Friday, that a sweeping narcotics operation led to the arrest of 22 individuals, including Mr. Cole‑Borghi, reportedly nabbed Thursday, at his City Hall office by the Lehigh County Drug Task Force with assistance from the Bethlehem Police Department.

According to court documents, Cole‑Borghi faces charges of possession of one pound of marijuana with intent to deliver.

He has since posted bail and was released.

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Authorities executed 26 search warrants and coordinated enforcement across Lehigh, Northampton, Montgomery counties, and even into New York, Illinois, and Wisconsin.

Daily Voice reported:

“The commissioner is one of more than 20 people charged in a case driven by Lehigh County’s 12th Investigating Grand Jury, which oversaw a probe spanning several years and involving federal, state, and local authorities.

The coordinated operation included arrests across Lehigh, Northampton, and Montgomery counties, as well as in New York, Illinois, and Wisconsin, the DA explained.

In total, investigators executed 26 search warrants, froze 283 financial and cryptocurrency accounts, and seized:

• More than 2,000 pounds of marijuana
• Large quantities of THC liquid, cocaine, and MDMA pills
• Over $100,000 in cash
• At least 25 firearms, including semi-automatic rifles and ghost guns

Two clandestine laboratories manufacturing illegal THC products were also dismantled by Pennsylvania State Police during the raids.”

**Please pray for Rudy Giuliani**

America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani, 81, was severely injured in a car accident this weekend in New Hampshire after assisting a domestic violence victim.

Michael Ragusa, head of Rudy Giuliani’s security, disclosed some details about the car accident in a statement posted to X on Sunday.

“On the evening of August 30, 2025, in New Hampshire, Mayor Giuliani was involved in a motor vehicle accident. Prior to the incident, he was flagged down by a woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident. Mayor Giuliani immediately rendered assistance and contacted 911. He remained on scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety,” Ragusa said.

Rudy suffered a broken thoracic vertebrae, lacerations, and contusions.

“Following this, while traveling on the highway, Mayor Giuliani’s vehicle was struck from behind at high speed. He was transported to a nearby trauma center, where he was diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg,” Giuliani’s head of security said.

This was not a targeted attack.

This was not a targeted attack. We ask everyone to respect Mayor Giuliani’s privacy and recovery, and refrain from spreading unfounded conspiracy theories.

Rudy is an American hero. He served as one of President Trump’s personal lawyers and served as the Mayor of New York City.

Giuliani also took down the mob as a federal prosecutor in New York in the mid- to late 1980s.

Rudy is also a great ally and friend of The Gateway Pundit. Please pray for his swift recovery.

In a world where truth is buried under layers of corporate and government agendas, a chilling revelation emerges: the LED light mandate is no innocent push for energy efficiency. It’s a calculated move to bathe Americans in artificial blue light, a silent weapon rewiring our brains, bodies, and society itself.

From plummeting birth rates to fractured families, from political extremism to media-fueled chaos, the pervasive glow of blue light is not just a health hazard—it’s a tool of control.

Neurosurgeon Dr. Jack Kruse, in an explosive interview with Rift TV host Elijah Schaffer, pulls back the curtain on this insidious plot, exposing how the government and media are complicit in a scheme to manipulate the public’s biology and behavior.

In 2007, the U.S. Congress passed the Energy Independence and Security Act, mandating a phase-out of incandescent light bulbs in favor of energy-efficient alternatives like LEDs.

Championed as a step toward “sustainability,” the transition gained momentum under the Obama administration, with the Department of Energy enforcing stricter efficiency standards.

By 2028, under Biden administration rules, incandescent bulbs will be effectively banned, replaced by LEDs that emit high levels of blue light.

The Department of Energy touts this as a triumph for reducing carbon emissions, claiming LEDs use up to 80% less energy. But what’s left unsaid is the cost to human health and societal stability.

Blue light, with wavelengths between 400 and 500 nanometers, mimics the spectrum of natural daylight but lacks the balance of sunlight’s full spectrum. Studies from institutions like Harvard Medical School have linked prolonged exposure to blue light—especially at night—to disrupted circadian rhythms, suppressed melatonin production, and increased risks of obesity, diabetes, and mood disorders.

Yet, the government’s push for LEDs ignores these findings, prioritizing corporate interests and green optics over public well-being.

Kruse, a board-certified neurosurgeon, warns this is no accident but a deliberate strategy to keep Americans sick, infertile, and divided.

He points to the rise of the “incel,” involuntary celibate, movement, particularly among young men with far-right political leanings, as a symptom of blue light toxicity.

“What if I was to tell you that sexual identity, gender, and sexual choice is also on a spectrum?” Kruse said, explaining that blue light disrupts non-visual photoreceptors, particularly vitamin A (retinol), which affects sleep and hormonal pathways. “It moves your epigenetics back and forth. It’s mostly methylation and histone modification on DNA.”

WATCH:

This epigenetic shift, Kruse claims, suppresses testosterone and oxytocin, hormones critical for bonding, reproduction, and social engagement. The result? A generation of men disinterested in relationships or procreation, proudly embracing asexuality under purple and black flags—colors Kruse notes ironically align with ultraviolet light and semiconductor properties tied to light toxicity.

“I don’t think the people in that community are smart enough to know that purple and black was really wise to pick,” he remarked, hinting at a deeper, almost orchestrated influence.

This hormonal disruption, Kruse argues, dampens activism by sapping the drive for collective action.

“When you’re in a committed relationship with a woman, she has a duty to tell you if you’re performing or not performing,” he said, linking sexual dysfunction to broader societal apathy.

By weakening family units and reducing birth rates, blue light exposure aligns with what Kruse sees as a technocratic agenda to control population growth and suppress resistance.

“The government right now wants you sick, wants you infertile, because what does that do? It actually gives them more power over us,” he warned.

Kruse’s most explosive claim is that the media and entertainment industries, saturated with blue-light-emitting screens, are complicit in this manipulation.

From smartphones to TVs to LED-lit studios, the constant exposure keeps viewers in a state of heightened stress and reduced cognitive clarity.

“What does blue light do to blood glucose and insulin? Raises both of them. You don’t have to eat a cheesecake,” Kruse explained, noting that this metabolic stress mimics a fight-or-flight response, keeping audiences agitated and distracted.

This environment, he argues, fuels divisive political narratives and sensationalized content, as seen in what Schaffer called the “telenovelas of politics.”

Kruse agreed: “It’s bullshit. It’s like, fucking these are soap operas. I know it gets eyeball clicks, but you know why? Because those are retards that are all…blue lit.”

By keeping audiences hooked on divisive, emotionally charged media, the industry ensures they remain too fatigued and polarized to question the larger agenda.

Kruse pointed to the NFL’s adoption of rainbow-colored campaigns as evidence of catering to shifting social norms influenced by light-induced hormonal changes, noting, “There’s a lot of gays that like football… that’s the evidence that that’s happening here.

‘He also criticized the media’s role in normalizing distraction over substance, citing figures like Candace Owens who, he claims, focus on drama rather than addressing root causes like abortion’s impact on black communities.

“The liberals, they’re okay about killing black babies… we’ve killed more black babies in abortion clinics than we did anything in slavery,” Kruse said, accusing the media of ignoring these truths to maintain control.

Kruse’s solution is radical yet simple: reject the blue light agenda by embracing natural sunlight and minimizing artificial light exposure. He advocates for incandescent bulbs, blue-blocking glasses, and red-light therapy, urging Schaffer to investigate the LED mandate’s origins.

“I need you as the journalist to go after that story. We need to reverse that effect so we don’t have these lights that we go back to incandescence,” he pleaded, framing it as a fight to restore fertility, family, and freedom.

By seeing the sunrise and reducing screen time, Kruse believes individuals can reclaim their health and resist technocratic control.

Whether you buy into his theories or not, the LED mandate’s implications demand scrutiny. Why did the government push for lights that disrupt our hormones and sleep? Who benefits from a population too tired, too divided, to fight back? As Americans, we pride ourselves on questioning authority—but are we questioning enough?

Democrats are furious with Oklahoma lawmakers for requiring out-of-state teachers, many of them from deep-blue states, to pass a basic civics test before teaching in Oklahoma classrooms.

The law is straightforward: anyone responsible for educating American students must demonstrate knowledge of the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and basic principles of government. 

Yet the left is treating this as if it were some radical assault on public education.

The test itself is not complicated. It mirrors the civics portion of the U.S. naturalization exam—the same test immigrants must pass to become citizens. 

Sample questions include: Who wrote the Declaration of Independence? or What is the supreme law of the land?

If immigrants seeking citizenship can learn these answers, surely teachers entrusted with the education of young Americans should be held to the same standard.

The statistics speak for themselves. 

According to a 2022 survey from the Annenberg Public Policy Center, only 47% of Americans could name all three branches of government. Even more troubling, 23% could not name a single branch. 

The growing crisis of civic illiteracy reflects decades of neglect in schools where basic U.S. history and constitutional principles have been sidelined in favor of political activism. 

Teachers who do not know or respect America’s founding documents cannot be expected to instill civic responsibility in their students.

Oklahoma’s approach is both reasonable and popular. Polling consistently shows that Americans want more civics in schools. 

A 2021 Gallup poll found that 73% of adults believe K-12 schools should place greater emphasis on teaching civics and government. 

Parents understand that without civic knowledge, the next generation cannot function as informed voters. The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) revealed in 2022 that only 22% of eighth graders scored proficient in civics. 

That means nearly four out of five students are failing to grasp the basics of how their government works.

By requiring teachers to pass a civics test, Oklahoma is simply addressing the problem at its root. 

Teachers who arrive from states like California or New York—where curricula often focus more on identity politics than American history—will now be asked to prove they can teach the essentials. 

This is hardly unreasonable. In fact, it is common sense. 

After all, every state requires teachers to pass certification exams in math or reading before stepping into a classroom. 

Why should civics be treated as less important?

Democrats’ backlash reveals a deeper discomfort. Their opposition to Oklahoma’s law is not about the difficulty of the test—it is about the principle behind it.

For decades, the left has resisted efforts to reinforce patriotism, civic duty, and parental rights in education. 

They have promoted radical curricula while downplaying America’s achievements. 

Now, when one state insists that teachers know the very system they are supposed to explain to students, the left calls it an attack.

The truth is simple: no teacher should be allowed to shape the minds of American students without basic civic knowledge.

If immigrants can pass the test, so can teachers. Oklahoma has set a model that other states should follow. 

The outrage from Democrats only proves how far they have strayed from valuing citizenship and national unity.

Every state should demand that educators, especially those coming from failing blue-state systems, pass the same test. 

Anyone stepping foot near American students should know the basics of the republic they are preparing young people to inherit.
