thepoliticalinsider--2020-09-14--Concerns Growing That Democrat Fundraising Platform Is Leaning On Chinese And Iranian Money

A mysterious group of Democrat players may be acting as the conduit for hundreds of millions of dollars in illegal foreign contributions to Democrats and it ’ s reported that most of that money is probably from China and Iran .
A conservative political group , the Take Back Action Fund , is raising “ serious concerns ” about millions of donations reported by major Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue .
Fox News : “ A preliminary computer analysis by the Take Back Action Fund , obtained exclusively by Fox News , has found that nearly half of all 2019 donations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be unemployed.
” A typical way to hide illegal political donations , used by the Democrats for years , is to make them untraceable by recording as little information as possible on the donation paperwork , like claiming to be unemployed so employment can ’ t be verified .
“ After downloading hundreds of millions of [ dollars in ] donations to the Take Back Action Fund servers , we were shocked to see that almost half of the donations to ActBlue in 2019 claimed to be unemployed individuals .
The name @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political donations , but more than 4.7 million donations came from people who claimed they did not have an employer .
Those 4.7 million donations totaled $ 346 million ActBlue raised and sent to liberal causes.
” “ It is hard to believe that at a time when the U.S. unemployment rate was less than 4 percent , that unemployed people had $ 346 million dollars to send to ActBlue for liberal causes , ” Pudner said , adding that “ 4.7 million donations from people without a job … raised serious concerns.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Biden – Calls Him A ‘ Pawn ’ For China ActBlue describes itself as a “ powerful online fundraising platform available to Democratic candidates and committees , progressive organizations , and nonprofits that share our values for no cost besides a 3.95 % processing fee on donations .
And we operate as a conduit , which means donations made through ActBlue to a campaign or organization are considered individual donations.
” What it doesn ’ t mention is that it refuses to verify donations with banks , which is a tell-tale sign for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ insistence on refusing to allow banks to verify their donations is an invitation to foreign programmers or others to send money through them using fake American names , and we encourage them to start letting banks verify the identity of donors to stop the potential for millions of dollars to influence our election… Auditing these suspect donations to determine if millions lied by indicating they were unemployed when in fact they were not , or if their names were just being used by a foreign programmer or someone else to move money without @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We ’ ve planned a series of forensic procedures to identify whether or not these donors of record exist or not , if they made the contributions themselves , and whether they were legally able , and whether or not they are potential ‘ straw ’ donors , making the contributions after being given the money and direction by someone else .
“ We found it took other vendors only a matter of hours to switch their system to allow verification of donations and thus prevent the possibility of illegal foreign money being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ Choosing to use an untraceable system has a higher cost in terms of the risk of credit card fraud and also tends to incur higher bank fees , ” he added .
“ And this untraceable system allows someone with a gift card to make donations in anyone ’ s name , even if that person never actually made that donation , or even if that person doesn ’ t exist at all.

“After downloading hundreds of millions of [dollars in] donations to the Take Back Action Fund servers, we were shocked to see that almost half of the donations to ActBlue in 2019 claimed to be unemployed individuals. The name of employers must be disclosed when making political donations, but more than 4.7 million donations came from people who claimed they did not have an employer. Those 4.7 million donations totaled $346 million ActBlue raised and sent to liberal causes.”
“It is hard to believe that at a time when the U.S. unemployment rate was less than 4 percent, that unemployed people had $346 million dollars to send to ActBlue for liberal causes,” Pudner said, adding that “4.7 million donations from people without a job … raised serious concerns.”

ActBlue describes itself as a “powerful online fundraising platform available to Democratic candidates and committees, progressive organizations, and nonprofits that share our values for no cost besides a 3.95% processing fee on donations. And we operate as a conduit, which means donations made through ActBlue to a campaign or organization are considered individual donations.”
What it doesn’t mention is that it refuses to verify donations with banks, which is a tell-tale sign for foreign donations.
Pudner Responds
Pudner retorts:
“ActBlue’s insistence on refusing to allow banks to verify their donations is an invitation to foreign programmers or others to send money through them using fake American names, and we encourage them to start letting banks verify the identity of donors to stop the potential for millions of dollars to influence our election… Auditing these suspect donations to determine if millions lied by indicating they were unemployed when in fact they were not, or if their names were just being used by a foreign programmer or someone else to move money without their knowledge, will take time. We’ve planned a series of forensic procedures to identify whether or not these donors of record exist or not, if they made the contributions themselves, and whether they were legally able, and whether or not they are potential ‘straw’ donors, making the contributions after being given the money and direction by someone else.
“We found it took other vendors only a matter of hours to switch their system to allow verification of donations and thus prevent the possibility of illegal foreign money being moved into campaigns,” Pudner said.
“Choosing to use an untraceable system has a higher cost in terms of the risk of credit card fraud and also tends to incur higher bank fees,” he added. “And this untraceable system allows someone with a gift card to make donations in anyone’s name, even if that person never actually made that donation, or even if that person doesn’t exist at all.”

The Minnesota Freedom Fund , a bail fund for low-income individuals in Minneapolis that was promoted by Kamala Harris , helped a man accused of sexually assaulting a child go free .
Kamala Harris : “ Chip In Now To The Minnesota Freedom Fund ” The Minnesota Freedom Fund became more widely known after the riots sparked off by the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis , as a means to help free “ protesters ” from jail .
Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris fervently backed it .
So did at least 13 of Joe Biden ’ s staffers .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , chip in now to the [ Minnesota Freedom Fund ] to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota , ” she tweeted .
As the Daily Caller reported , the MFF received around $ 35 million in donations since Floyd ’ s death , of which it has spent $ 3,475,000 , and only 6 % of that has gone to people arrested at Black Lives Matter protests or other related riots .
Child Molesters , Burglars , And Assaulters , All Freed On Bail One individual apparently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was Timothy Columbus , 36 , charged with sexually assaulting an 8-year-old girl in 2015 .
“ Victim stated ‘ Tim ’ laid her on the couch and held her down as he unbuckled his pants and pulled down her pants .
Victim stated he then ‘ put his thing inside me , ' ” the statement of probable cause reads .
Columbus faces 30 years in prison , but was released in July on $ 75,000 bail .
Documents obtained by the Daily Caller suggest the MFF played a role in his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Columbus , instruct the court to repay any refunded bail to the MFF .
The same goes for Richard Kelley , 53 , who was charged with burglary and assault for breaking into the home of a 71-year-old woman in April , and Deshaun Boyd , 33 , who allegedly assaulted and robbed a man leaning on a cane in May .
These are the people that Kamala Harris has raised funds to bail out , folks !
Does she have any idea where the money is going ?
Does she care at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ caused ?
Will she ever apologize for her role in bailing out violent criminals ?
Perhaps Harris is totally fine with an alleged child molester being set free from donations she gathered – after all , when she was a DA in San Francisco , she apparently refused to prosecute any of the priests in her state who were accused of abusing children .
The Whole Bail System Is Broken It also is just a latest example of the bail system as a whole completely failing to protect American citizens .
Only a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Portland accused of starting brush fires with a molotov cocktail was released – he went onto set 6 more fires and was re-arrested the same day .

Mom And Her 2-Year-Old Son Allegedly Kicked Off Flight After Toddler Is Caught Eating Snacks With No Mask On

A young mother is speaking out to claim that she was kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight with her 2 year-old son because the boy was eating snacks without a mask on .
Mom Says She Was Kicked Off Flight After Son Didn ’ t Wear Mask Jodi Degyansky , 34 , was flying home to Chicago with her little son Hayes after visiting family in Fort Myers , Florida when she says they were thrown off the flight , according to News-Press .

A young mother is speaking out to claim that she was kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight with her 2 year-old son because the boy was eating snacks without a mask on.
Mom Says She Was Kicked Off Flight After Son Didn’t Wear Mask
Jodi Degyansky, 34, was flying home to Chicago with her little son Hayes after visiting family in Fort Myers, Florida when she says they were thrown off the flight, according to News-Press. Degyansky said that the plane had already left the gate and was taxiing when her son removed his mask to have a snack.
It was then that the mother alleged that flight attendants began confronting her.
“Flight attendants kept coming over asking if we would wear it the full flight, and I said he would,” she told WBBH-TV “It definitely was a struggle but something we’re working on.”
Despite her explanation, Degyansky alleges that the plane headed back to the gate, and she was asked to leave.
“A couple minutes later, we were pulled back into the gate and I was asked to leave the plane accompanied by the manager, the supervisor, the flight attendants, and the pilot,” she recounted.

Degyansky spent about 15 minutes arguing her case, pointing out that her son had his mask back on, but she was still forced off the flight.
While CDC guidelines state that children under the age of 2 should wear masks in public due to the coronavirus pandemic, Degyansky thinks that flight attendants took this rule a little too far.
“My toddler who literally turned 2 two weeks ago … I know you have to draw the line but let’s be a little compassionate with everyone’s individual circumstances,” she said. “I’m sure other parents are going through this. I want people to either do their homework before they choose to fly or find an airline that has more leniency.”

Southwest Responds
Southwest released a statement by saying that they are looking into Degyansky’s claims. The statement added:
“If a Customer is unable to wear a face covering for any reason, Southwest regrets that we are unable to transport the individual. In those cases, we will issue a full refund and hope to welcome the Customer onboard in the future, if public health guidance regarding face coverings changes. Caring for others with our Southwest Hearts is at the center of everything we do, which is especially important during this pandemic. We appreciate the ongoing support and spirit of cooperation among our Customers and Employees as we collectively take care of each other while striving to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
Degyansky concluded by saying that she found this situation to be humiliating.
“The take away from this is empathy, sympathy what these parents are going through in this time of transition,” she lamented.

Minneapolis City Council members expressed dismay at the rapid rise of crime haunting their constituents roughly two months after demonizing and voting to defund the city ’ s police department .
