I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

We now have legal fees on top of our campaign expenses.

You need to be a citizen or resident to contribute (because she is not on the ignoring-the-rules team sadly enough, otherwise it would be fine whatever the amount or how brazenly corrupt).

How much did you want to give her? I'll donate that amount instead.

Thanks for the thought but you donate what you feel is right.

I've got some American family members, I'll work something of dubious legality with them.

Sounds good. Inb4 we're on Fox News as an example of the radical left foreigner criminals who are funding this domestic terrorist candidate.

How is it illegal to fund someone's legal fees? I know its illegal for their campaign to get funded from overseas but if they are smart they are keeping their campaign fees separate.

I feel like since she is a candidate and a Democrat, all kinds of her funding is subject to all kinds of scrutiny. "Well I know these people gave me a donation via my campaign web site but it wasn't used to fund my campaign" is exactly the kind of logic that I think you can get away with as a Republican but not as a Democrat, even when it is 100% truthful.
