A decade of fighting for fraud victims worldwide
Founder & CEO
Colin Michael McDonald (born February 13, 1988) is an American attorney and prosecutor who has served as the United States assistant attorney general for the national fraud enforcement division since 2026. McDonald began working as an assistant United States attorney in the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of California in 2014. He prosecuted several individuals associated with the Honolulu Police Department, including its chief, Louis Kealoha, and his wife, Katherine. In January 2025, McDonald became an associate deputy attorney general working for deputy attorney general Todd Blanche. He served as the co-director of the Weaponization Working Group within the Department of Justice and coordinated with federal law enforcement agencies in seeking to prosecute protesters who opposed Operation Metro Surge. In January 2026, president Donald Trump named McDonald as his nominee for assistant attorney general for the National Fraud Enforcement Division, a newly established position. McDonald appeared before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary the following month, in which he faced questions over political prosecutions. He was confirmed by the Senate in March.
