Meanwhile, Trump ally Elon Musk has repeatedly blasted ActBlue on his social media platform, X. O n March 8, for example, he appeared to suggest that "ActBlue-funded groups" were behind the recent wave of nationwide protests against his electric vehicle company, Tesla.

President Donald Trump has directed the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate ActBlue, the Democratic Party’s primary fundraising platform, just months before the 2025 election cycle, in which numerous congressional seats are up for grabs.

Democrats on Thursday were bracing for a sustained attack on their fundraising operation by Republicans, as President Donald Trump targets ActBlue. Trump plans to direct Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate the major online donation platform for what the administration cast as “unlawful ‘straw donor’ and foreign contributions to American elections” in a presidential memorandum on Thursday.
