And billionaire Trump donor Elon Musk ā who is overseeing the administrationās controversial effort to rapidly shrink the federal government ā has criticized ActBlue, seeking to tie it to protests and acts of vandalism against his electric-vehicle company Tesla. He has argued, without evidence to substantiate his claims, that some prominent Democrats ā including one who died in 2019 ā were funding ActBlue and the protests.
āSomething stinks about ActBlue,ā MuskĀ postedĀ earlier this month on his social media platform, X.
Democrats share their lists whenever each other are in tight races. Itās annoying that you end up getting perma-spammed, but I do think ActBlue is providing a good service. Theyāre kinda shooting themselves in the foot because unsolicited emails get flagged as spam and most email providers use crowdsourced spam detect.
