    Just be sure to do it via cash so they can’t put you on a list.

    Donation services and apps usually have clauses about not using the money for criminal defence, so they’ll just refund it.

        There are ways to do it, most of them tracked to prevent the funding of terrorism and crime.

        Bringing a suitcase full of cash into the country isn’t going to work, either. They’ll just seize it at the border.

        You could always go to the effort to establish a charity, but I’m not a US citizen so I don’t know enough about what’s allowed or available with respect to what qualifies something to be a charity.

        Maybe if you make it a “Christian” organization dedicated to providing legal defence to “wayward souls” or something?

          I don’t think they’ll be granting 501C status to your “Let’s shoot the billionaires” organization.
