Revolt Growing, “Why Do We Even Pay Taxes?”
Everyone hates paying taxes, that’s noting new.
Taxes are immoral, that’s also nothing new.
Federal Income Tax was ILLEGAL and UNCONSTITUTIONAL for the majority of the time we have been a country, that’s also not a new fact (although many may not know that history).
So I’m not exactly breaking news here to say people are fed up with taxes, but that’s not the main point I’m trying to make.
Yes, we all hate taxes and rightfully complain about them.
But….we have also all paid them against our will figuring at least maybe we are getting some good things in return: Schools, roads, police protection, fire departments, etc.
Now though, as the massive scam in Minnesota is erupting and it looks like the scam may not even be limited to Minnesota but might be in all 50 states, people are now legitimately starting to ask: WHY IN THE HELL ARE WE EVEN PAYING TAXES?
ACT BLUE, DAYCARE FRAUD: Is This How The Massive FRAUD Really Worked?
In fact, is it immoral and unethical to continue paying them knowing they are directly funding FRAUD?
I'm not here to lead the movement to band everyone together and to tell everyone to stop paying taxes (I plan to pay mine in April), but I AM telling you that a movement is growing unlike any I have seen before on the heels of this massive Minnesota Somali Fake-Daycare Scandal and I don't know if this genie is going back in the bottle.
Take a look:
Why would anyone trust election or pay taxes at this point?? They can’t arrest us all!!!

Theoretically, if we all decided not to pay our taxes until the fraud stops and the people responsible are behind bars, what could they do to us? They can’t arrest us all, right?
The government needs taxpayer money to continue the grift. Isn’t this another form of starving the… https://t.co/rthapmGZZl

So why must we keep paying taxes?
Clearly my money is being spent on others lavish lifestyles.
While I’m over here working 50 to 60 hours a week to keep bread on my families table. You got democrats and illegals stealing billions……

At this point there is no reason to pay taxes anymore

Honestly, you can't really disagree with any of that.
Americans will put up with a lot, but knowing that we are working 60+ hours a week, many of us at two or more jobs just to make ends meet, and then we lose most of those paychecks to taxes which are stolen from us -- only to now find out we're just funding FRAUD and very likely a money-laundering operation potentially involving ActBLUE which then simply funnels all of that money right back to the Democrat party and I think Americans are not going to tolerate it anymore.
I'm not calling for violence or uprising, but I am saying I have studied history and our Founding Fathers threw tea in the Ocean over a small tea tax.
What would they do if they found out about the Somali Daycare $100 million fraud? ALLLLLEGEDLY.

Are you ok with this?
Are we doing to continue funding this?
ACT BLUE, DAYCARE FRAUD: Is This How The Massive FRAUD Really Worked?
Elon Musk has been shouting from the rooftops that ActBLUE has committed massive fraud for a long time now.
Here he is back in March stating it point blank:
ActBLUE has committed massive fraud https://t.co/LcxPMFGE9Q
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 10, 2025
I want to be clear, I'm not saying that, although the evidence is starting to stack up. I'm just reporting on what Elon has said.
And again here in April calling for an investigation:
ActBlue investigation https://t.co/yLcVbpys9I

Elon also reports that ActBlue was behind the funding for all the Tesla protests earlier this year and the founders include George Soros and Reid Hoffman, among others:
An investigation has found 5 ActBlue-funded groups responsible for Tesla “protests”: Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise & Resist, Indivisible Project and Democratic Socialists of America.
ActBlue funders include George Soros, Reid Hoffman, Herbert Sandler, Patricia Bauman,…
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 8, 2025
But how does it all work (allegedly)?
How is it all connected?
What's the general flow of all this money and where does it end up?
At it's most basic, it seems like this is how the cycle may flow:
Taxpayer money → Fraudulent providers → Kickbacks/donations → Democratic campaigns.
Simple!
Wash.
Rinse.
Repeat!

BREAKING - MINNESOTA SOMALI FRAUD PLOT DEEPENS: FAKE CHILDCARE CENTERS CAUGHT DONATING TO DEMOCRATS
Screenshots are blowing up showing Somali-run childcare centers in Minneapolis funneling donations to local Somali politicians right around the time massive fraud scandals hit the fan.
We're talking places like Sunshine Childcare Center Inc, MN Best Childcare Center Inc, Adult Care LLC, and Lucky Child Care Center LLC dropping $1,000 checks in 2021, mixed in with individual donors.
This is tied into the epic Feeding Our Future mess, where prosecutors say over $250M in federal COVID aid for kids' meals got siphoned off by Somali-linked nonprofits.
Recent probes flag up to half of $18B in state programs potentially looted, including daycare scams where centers pocket millions with no kids in sight, exposing empty "daycares" in Minneapolis that scored up to $4M.
Politicians like Ilhan Omar got hit with donations from fraud suspects back in '22, though she bounced the cash to food banks.
Trump and VP Vance are piling on about "Somali fraud rings" turning Minnesota into a scam haven.
It's got folks demanding audits and deportations, calling it a kickback loop where taxpayer dollars boomerang to pols pushing more handouts.
Folks, this paper trail is NOT going away!
More confirmation here:
Why are so many fake child care centers donating to national democrat races across the country?
Strange
It’s almost like we just uncovered one of the largest election frauds in history funneling stolen Medicaid tax dollars to Democrat candidates en masse

So then I turned to Grok and I asked it to tell me how this scam might work....
And what it told me was fascinating!
Of course it includes all the standard disclaimers and caveats, but tell me if this doesn't make perfect sense to you:
Elon Musk's Statements on ActBlue
Elon Musk has repeatedly accused ActBlue, the primary online fundraising platform for Democratic candidates and progressive causes, of facilitating fraud and money laundering. His comments focus on allegations of:
"Smurfing": Breaking large donations into many small ones to bypass limits or hide origins.1
Identity Misuse: Use of fraudulent donor identities (e.g., elderly people listed as making thousands of small donations without their knowledge).2
Illegal Contributions: Potential illegal foreign contributions.3
Key Examples from Musk's Posts on X
Accusations of Fraud: He directly stated "ActBLUE has committed massive fraud" in response to undercover investigations showing discrepancies in donor records.
Foreign/Illegal Donations: He highlighted investigations into ActBlue for allowing foreign and illegal donations, noting resignations of senior officials and tying it to funding for anti-Tesla protests by left-wing groups.4
Calls for Action: Musk called for an "ActBlue investigation" in response to congressional reports on potential fraud.
Money Laundering: He described the platform as enabling a "money-laundering operation" in broader criticisms of NGOs and Democratic fundraising.
Current Context
These claims align with Republican-led congressional probes and reports from investigators like James O'Keefe, which allege patterns of suspicious small-dollar donations (e.g., retirees unknowingly listed for hundreds of contributions).
However, ActBlue has denied wrongdoing, attributing issues to data errors or legitimate grassroots fundraising, and no criminal charges have been filed against the platform itself as of late 2025. Critics from left-leaning sources argue the accusations are politically motivated to undermine Democratic fundraising.
The Minnesota Daycare Fraud Allegations and Alleged ActBlue Connection
The "fake daycares" refer to ongoing scandals in Minnesota involving alleged fraud in state and federal social service programs, particularly the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) and related childcare funding.
The Allegations
Viral videos from late 2025 (e.g., by influencer Nick Shirley) showed seemingly empty or inactive daycare centers—some with misspelled signs, no visible children, or locked doors during business hours—yet receiving millions in taxpayer funds.5
Inflated Billing: These centers, often linked to Minnesota's Somali-American community, are accused of billing for non-existent services or inflated enrollment.
Financial Discrepancies: Examples include one center allegedly receiving $1.9–$4 million in 2025 despite appearing vacant and licensed for dozens of children with no evidence of activity.
Feeding Our Future Links: Broader context ties to earlier scandals like Feeding Our Future (a $250+ million COVID-era child nutrition fraud scheme involving fake meal sites, with dozens convicted, mostly Somali-Americans).
Scale of Loss: Federal officials estimate fraud across Minnesota programs could exceed $1 billion since 2018, prompting FBI surges, Treasury investigations, and program suspensions.6
Regarding Donations to ActBlue
Some conservative sources and social media claims suggest fraud proceeds from these schemes were laundered into political donations via ActBlue (e.g., fraudsters or related entities donating to Democrats like Rep.7 Ilhan Omar, who reportedly returned some funds).
The Alleged Cycle:
Taxpayer money → Fraudulent providers → Kickbacks/Donations → Democratic campaigns.
Investigation Findings
Lack of Substantiation: Mainstream reporting (e.g., New York Times, Star Tribune, Reuters) on the daycare/child nutrition fraud does not substantiate direct ties to ActBlue donations.
Motive: The scandals center on theft for personal gain (luxury goods, property, travel), not systematic political laundering.
Legal Status: No federal indictments or official probes have confirmed ActBlue involvement in Minnesota fraud cases. Claims of an ActBlue link appear largely in partisan outlets and remain unproven allegations.
Summary
Musk's criticisms of ActBlue are part of wider Republican scrutiny into its donation practices, substantiated by patterns of suspicious contributions but contested as fraud. The Minnesota daycare fraud is a verified major scandal involving billions in potential losses, but the specific mechanism of routing stolen funds through ActBlue to Democrats lacks concrete evidence from reliable investigations and seems to stem from speculative connections in conservative commentary. Ongoing federal probes may clarify more.
That makes PERFECT sense to me!
Is that the scam they have been running on American taxpayers for years? Decades? Longer?

New: Texas's Ongoing Investigation Into ActBlue Yields Cooperation On Donor Credit Card Identification
In December 2023, we opened an investigation into the major fundraising platform ActBlue to determine whether their operations are compliant with all applicable laws.
ActBlue has cooperated with our ongoing investigation. They have changed their requirements to now include 'CVV' codes for donations on their platform. This is a critical change that can help prevent fraudulent donations.
But it is most important that we enforce the law and protect the integrity of our elections.
Certain features of campaign finance law may incentivize bad actors to use platforms like ActBlue to covertly move money to political campaigns to evade legal requirements. Suspicious activity on fundraising platforms must be fully investigated to determine if any laws have been broken.

Press Release from Texas AG Ken Paxton:
Attorney General Ken Paxton’s Ongoing Investigation Into ActBlue Yields Cooperation On Donor Credit Card Identification
In December 2023, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton opened an investigation into the major fundraising platform ActBlue to determine whether ActBlue’s operations are compliant with all applicable laws. ActBlue has been the subject of numerous allegations of illicit activity, including that its platform may enable fraud. One major focus of Texas's investigation is ActBlue’s failure to require that donors provide “CVV” codes when making donations by credit card on the ActBlue platform. “CVV” codes are a commonly required security measure.
Today, the OAG issued a supplemental civil investigative demand to obtain additional information relevant to the latest allegations regarding ActBlue.
“ActBlue has cooperated with our ongoing investigation. They have changed their requirements to now include ‘CVV’ codes for donations on their platform. This is a critical change that can help prevent fraudulent donations,” said Attorney General Paxton. “But it is most important that we enforce the law and protect the integrity of our elections. Certain features of campaign finance law may incentivize bad actors to use platforms like ActBlue to covertly move money to political campaigns to evade legal requirements. While campaign finance is protected by the First Amendment, suspicious activity on fundraising platforms must be fully investigated to determine if any laws have been broken.”
Press Release from House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil:
Today, Committee on House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil (WI-01) announced its next phase of oversight into ActBlue's online political donation operation amid concerns that ActBlue is violating or skirting federal campaign finance (FCF) laws. In launching the investigation, Chairman Steil released the following statement:
"Illegal and malicious conduct have no place in our elections. Ensuring all parties are complying with federal election law as we approach a presidential election is of utmost importance. By launching a new phase of our investigation into ActBlue, the Committee on House Administration has begun robust oversight of ActBlue's lenient donor verification standards. I'm committed to ensuring Americans can have confidence in our elections and to preventing foreign or malicious actors from influencing American elections."
In launching the next phase of the investigation, Chairman Steil sent a letter to Federal Election Commission (FEC) Chairman Cooksey and Vice Chair Weintraub requesting the FEC immediately initiate an emergency rulemaking process to require political campaigns verify the card verification value (CVV) of donors who contribute online and a rulemaking to prohibit political committees from accepting online contributions from gift cards or credit and debit cards. In addition to the letter, the Committee has scheduled a briefing with the FEC investigations team set for later this month.
Read the full text of the letter here.
In addition, Chairman Steil's plan includes legislation to:
Require political committees to verify the CVV and address information of donors that contribute via a credit or debit card,
Prohibit political committees from accepting donations from a gift card or other prepaid credit card
Require political campaigns to get the affirmative consent of donors before they make a reoccuring contribution
Background:
In recent weeks, a wide array of sources have voiced concerns that ActBlue is violating or skirting federal campaign finance laws in several ways including:
Laundering foreign contributions through prepaid gift cards and U.S. credit and debit cardholders.
Using prepaid giftcards and credit cards as a vehicle without knowledge of the owner to launder campaign contributions that would violate Federal Campaign Finance (FCF) law.
Deliberate nonuse of the CVV number to hinder verification of the owner or location of the credit card holder.
Receipt of a significant number of donations from individuals who are retired and live on a fixed income.
Sudden appearance of very large donations from individuals who have previously donated much smaller amounts.
Patterns of hundreds of donations for $2.50 from the same individual.
State Attorney's General from Virginia, Wyoming, and Missouri are conducting similar investigations into ActBlue.
On September 20, 2023, Chairman Steil held the first full committee hearing with the Federal Election Commission in over a decade.
On October 31, 2023 Chairman Steil sent a letter demanding answers on ActBlue's practices, questioning if they are complying with federal campaign finance laws and preventing foreign and illegal contributions.
Press Release from Sen. Marco Rubio:
RUBIO DEMANDS ANSWERS FROM FEC ON POTENTIAL ACTBLUE FRAUDULENT DONATIONS
APR 12, 2023 | PRESS RELEASES
ActBlue, a major fundraiser for the Democratic Party, has purportedly engaged in thousands of dollars in campaign donations through small donors, including senior citizens, via illegal contributions, without those donors’ consent or awareness. Further, unlike nearly every other individual political campaign and political action committee, ActBlue does not require a card verification value (CVV) number as a requirement for donating. Requiring a CVV number as a condition of making an online transaction is standard practice across the e-commerce industry to reduce fraud and prevent unlawful foreign transactions. ActBlue must be held accountable for its apparent lack of security protocols.
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) sent a letter to the Federal Election Commission’s Chairwoman and Vice Chairman, Dara Lindenbaum and Sean J. Cooksey, to demand answers on the platform’s schemes to garner illegal campaign donations.
“It should come as no surprise that ActBlue serves as a vessel for fraud, considering the intentional lack of security engrained within their donation processes and systems.” – Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL)
Flashback…In February, Senator Rubio re-introduced the Codification of Verified Values (CVV) Act, which would require a card verification value (CVV) number as a requirement for donating to a political campaign.
The full text of the letter is below.
Dear Chairwoman Lindenbaum and Vice Chairman Cooksey:
I write to urge the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to investigate the purported presence of widespread fraudulent donations being reported to the commission by ActBlue, a Democratic campaign conglomerate.
Recently, alarming reports emerged of fraudulent donations being reported to the FEC by ActBlue. These reports indicate that numerous individuals, including senior citizens, have purportedly donated to ActBlue thousands of times a year. However, according to recent investigative reports, many of these individuals had no idea that their names and addresses were being used to give thousands of dollars in political donations, with most of these “donations” going to ActBlue. It should come as no surprise that ActBlue serves as vessel for fraud, considering the intentional lack of security engrained within their donation processes and systems.
As you both know, the vast majority of online transactions require a card verification value (CVV) number. This requirement is standard practice across the e-commerce industry to reduce fraud and prevent unlawful foreign transactions. In knowing that foreign actors use fake accounts to exploit donation systems that do not have robust verification processes and systems in place, most individual campaigns and political action committees (PACs) require CVV numbers as part of making an online donation. However, in breaking with most organizations, ActBlue does not require CVV numbers as a requirement for donating, and thus lending itself as a facilitator of fraud.
I urge the commission to investigate ActBlue’s reporting and insufficient security guardrails. Additionally, I request answers to the following questions:
Is the commission concerned about reports detailing widespread fraud from ActBlue?
Was the commission aware of these seemingly fraudulent donations being reported by ActBlue prior to reports surfacing?
Will the commission investigate ActBlue and their reporting?
a. If no, please provide a detailed explanation.
4. What safety/security guardrails does the commission mandate that political organizations and campaigns use as a function of accepting online donations?
5. Does the commission agree that all organizations overseen by the commission should have sufficient guardrails to protect consumers and the donations the place, including the requirement of CVV numbers when making a donaton to a political organization, candidate, and/or campaign?
Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
And from Fox News:
Rep. Claudia Tenney, R-N.Y., demanded in a letter Thursday that the Federal Election Commission (FEC) investigate recent allegations "of fraudulent, deceptive, and potentially illegal behavior" on the part of ActBlue, the Democratic fundraising platform that's hauled in millions of dollars in donations for Vice President Harris' presidential campaign and its affiliated entities.
Tenney, who co-chairs the House Election Integrity Caucus, cited in the letter addressed to FEC Chair Sean Cooksey and Vice Chair Ellen Weintraub "significant public reporting on anomalous transaction activity involving hundreds of thousands of dollars." According to the agency's publicly available data, Tenney wrote, "numerous individuals have allegedly donated to ActBlue thousands of times annually." However, "it was reported many of these individuals were unaware their names and addresses were being used to make thousands of dollars in political donations."
The FEC declined to comment on the letter. Fox News Digital reached out to ActBlue regarding the allegations, but it did not immediately respond.
The letter noted ActBlue did not require a card verification value (CVV) number to complete a transaction, unlike most online platforms engaged in e-commerce. Relative to campaign contributions, Tenney said using CVV numbers "is an effective antifraud measure that prevents unlawful transactions that violate the Federal Election Campaign Act, 52 U.S. Code 30101-30145, and various state election laws."

"Given the deliberate lack of security in their donation practices, it is unsurprising that ActBlue could be exploited for fraudulent activities," Tenney wrote. "Recognizing that foreign actors use fake accounts to exploit donation systems lacking robust verification safeguards, most individual campaigns and political action committees (PACs) require CVV numbers to donate online. However, despite its widespread use among its online counterparts, ActBlue deliberately chooses not to require CVV numbers for donations, possibly facilitating fraudulent activities and foreign interference in our electoral system."
Tenney specifically urged the FEC to investigate "anomalous transaction activity as it relates to donations to ActBlue," and answer whether the FEC had already examined anomalous transaction activity or ActBlue's lax verification processes. If so, the congresswoman asked the FEC to provide "a detailed summary of the results of that investigation."
If not, Tenny asked if the FEC would "commit to investigating potential fraudulent donations to ActBlue, as well as the organization's lack of verification guardrails"
