     The money is literally flying into his home...as over 20,000 people have donated $840,000 to controversial artist and activist Ai Weiwei for his $2.4 million tax levy.
    Ai Weiwei, 54, has denied tax evasion.
    He says authorities are only silencing his activism...with the costly accusations.
