Uh, fake news? From reading the article, the donor sent $500k to 22 different parties. Some of these parties include Luke Smith, a popular Linux youtube personality, the guy who runs cock.li, ruqqus (a reddit alternative), various right wing websites including amren.com and unz.com (which didn't promote the protest). 45% of the donation went to Nick Fuentes, who was at the capitol, but denies entering the building. And according to the article: >While we don’t know if these donations directly funded last week’s violent gathering at the Capitol or any associated activity, the timing certainly warrants suspicion I think we need a new headline.

Sad you're being downvoted for pointing out the terrible title. None of those people are "insurrectionists" or whatever Orwellian doublespeak is fashionable

45% of the donation went to Nick Fuentes, who was at the capitol, but denies entering the building. Nick Fuentes is possibly going to face charges of incitement, though, because he was addressing the crowd through a megaphone and urging them on while specifically mentioning that the vote counting had already been halted. Amusingly enough he was being called out on this alt-right personality Richard Spencer yesterday.
