President Donald Trump has directed the Justice Department to investigate ActBlue, the primary online fundraising platform for Democratic candidates. The move comes via an executive memorandum, with Trump alleging that ActBlue may be violating federal election laws, including the use of so-called 'straw donors.' Democrats have condemned the action, accusing Trump of weaponizing the government to target his political opponents. The investigation could have significant implications for campaign finance and the 2024 election landscape. This marks another escalation in partisan tensions over the use of government power.
