ActBlue is up on Capitol Hill, and it didn’t go well. Its CEO, Regina Wallace-Jones, like others accused of fraud and malfeasance, used the ‘Bernie Ebbers’ protocol and pleaded the Fifth on everything. It threw Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) off guard when she pleaded the Fifth regarding a question confirming her name:

ActBlue has been under scrutiny for quite some time. Last March, The New York Times struggled to find people willing to go on the record as the liberal fundraising operation collapsed.

ActBlue's training materials instruct employees to accept donations from donors using fake names.
