Congresswoman Claims Trump's DOJ Is Harassing ActBlue CEO Because She's a Black Woman

As our own Doug Powers reported earlier, the CEO of Democratic fundraising machine ActBlue, Regina Wallace-Jones, testified before Congress about allegations that her firm illegally funneled foreign donations to federal campaigns. More accurately, she didn't testify — she pleaded the Fifth three times when asked if she lied to Congress about accepting fraudulent donations. She even asserted her Fifth Amendment rights when asked a question about clarifying her name.

Rep. Terri Swewll, about whom we've never heard until now, claimed that President Donald Trump's Justice Department was, over and over, harassing black women with bogus lawsuits.

It's funny that she mentioned Letitia James as a victim of harassment rather than a perpetrator.

She was given every opportunity in the world today to present that evidence, but refused to answer any questions.
