ActBlue.
Like I said, lots of individual donations, many of the same denomination, no CVV number and most likely from China ...
China would donate to the other guy. You know, the one who recently decided he’s fine with the CCP controlling the algorithm that serves content to our youngsters
and Ken. -

Wrong. China will donate to the party that has let them have their way the last three years.
I am curious as to what policies or information make you think this.
For the most part, I think that President Trump and President Biden have been pretty hard on mainland China.

I think Biden has turned a blind eye to Chinese coercion. I think he has missed the boat on China's road &belt programs and I think his general actions give off a perception big weakness that has emboldened Chinese military provocations against their neighbors

There are rumblings, including those from the FEC chair, saying that it's illegal for Biden to dump his money to Harris.

Maybe Jon is correct and it has to go to the DNC, then they function as a super PAC.

I (kind of) agree with your last point, but I don't think President Trump would have been better for the first two, and probably worse on the second. To counter the Belt and Road requires a global outlook from the US, not an isolation outlook. And realistically, the major Belt and Road projects have been planned and started long before President Trump and President Biden.

The "Belt and Road" program peaked during the Trump administration (measured by investment amounts). It has further weakened significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic and is barely a thing now. There is not much of the "Belt and Road" boat to be missed by the Biden administration.
Scuttling the Transpacific Partnership Program is among the stupidest things that Trump did as far as China-related foreign policy goes.
The CHIP Act is among the smartest things that Biden has done to curb China's ambition, economically and militarily (no advanced chips means no advanced weaponry).

Does it matter? Hasn’t she raised like $250 million since Biden’s announcement?

I just made a $5 donation to ActBlue using a valid Visa Card. They asked my CC number and the CVV.
But the name, the address and the email are all fake.

Send me your credit card number and let me give it a shot…

To be fair and balanced, also try the same on the Republican fund raising site WinRed.
I have. Many times. I’ll try it again. Thanks for the recommendation.

Same result. I was able to do with fake ID, address, and valid CC #.
And, to my credit, I did so without asking Jon to balance it out.
