The anti-mandate truck rally moved fast to GiveSendGo , which bills itself as the No. 1 free Christian fundraising site.
GiveSendGo had already raised more than $1.1 million as of 10
a.m. Saturday and tweeted they did it in 12 hours despite bot attacks,
noting they raised money five times faster than GoFundMe.
GiveSendGo is swamped and the site was difficult to access Saturday morning.
Dissenters on Twitter were quick to point out the site’s association with alt-right groups.
The Guardian did an expose of GiveSendGo last year after a data
breach revealed that, “Serving police officers and public officials have
donated money to fundraisers for accused vigilante murderers, far-right
activists, and fellow officers accused of shooting black Americans.”
