The other guy is decades older than the shooter, and he appears to have given modest amounts to other Democratic campaigns dating back to ~2012. It seems more likely to me that the reporter mistook this guy for the shooter than the shooter actually donated to ActBlue at age 17. Idk.

A credit card is not the only way to make a donation to ActBlue. WhiskeyGrinder Jul 2024 #9

Someone is posting on threads that the donation came from someone with a CA address? Alice B. Jul 2024 #10
