Jasmine Crockett at center of FEC probe over dubious campaign donations

Suspicious ActBlue activity found the Democratic Party’s new favorite Texan under investigation by the Federal Election Commission.

While some surely still pined for the shameless campaigning of kickflipping former Rep. Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke, skateboarding had been supplanted with sass in the form of Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Now, the self-declared former DEI hire of the Democratic Party, who’d demanded a job based solely on her skin color, was ensnared in the fundraising scandals of ActBlue over seemingly fraudulent donations made to her 2024 campaign.

According to a report from The Daily Signal, a complaint had been filed by the conservative advocacy group the Coolidge-Reagan Foundation on March 26 as part of a broader ethics complaint of alleged voter intimidation highlighting 53 donations amounting to $595, unbeknownst to the alleged donee’s wife.

All told, as ActBlue had recently been put under the microscope for funding protesters and rally-goers amid questions about the provenance of donations, as the FEC complaint detailed that Crockett’s campaign had received more than $870,000 in contributions through the fundraising organization.

“Rep. Crockett, through her principal campaign committee Respondent Jasmine for US, has received thousands of other donations through ActBlue totaling over $870,000,” read the complaint. “It is unclear how many of these are similarly fraudulent transactions, made in the name of unsuspecting innocent people who did not actually provide the funds.”

The FEC had responded to the complaint by April 2 noting that it would be reviewing the matter and informing the congresswoman of the investigation as FEC assistant general counsel of complaints examination and legal administration Wanda D. Brown wrote, “The respondents will be notified of this complaint within five business days.”

“You will be notified as soon as the Federal Election Commission (FEC) takes final action on your client’s complaint. Should you receive any additional information in this matter, please forward it to the Office of the General Counsel,” stated Brown to Coolidge-Reagan Foundation attorney Dan Backer, who had told the Signal, “The FEC opened an investigation. There is a process, but they are investigating.”

“It could be a reasonable defense for Rep. Crockett and other Democrats to say, ‘We didn’t solicit those donations, they all came in from ActBlue. But that would be wilful blindness,” added Backer. “The problem is legally, the campaign committee treasurer is responsible for due diligence. The treasurer could say, ‘We had absolute confidence in ActBlue.’ But ActBlue has been under investigation by state and federal authorities. That excuse might have worked a year ago.”

While the complaint referenced less than $600 in donations from Best, Crockett’s Republican challenger Sholdon Daniels had shared a video in March where he met with Best’s wife at her Collin County home, outside of the congresswoman’s district, and spotlighted some $16,000 in donations to the congresswoman’s campaign were attributed to her husband.
