Trump Scores New MAJOR Support That Nobody Saw Coming

A prominent Republican donor who had previously supported Ron DeSantis is now redirecting significant financial resources towards former President Donald Trump after DeSantis withdrew from the Republican primaries, as reported by The Epoch Times.

In February, MAGA Inc. received a series of million-dollar donations, with the most substantial contribution coming from the primary donor of DeSantis’s GOP nomination campaign. Federal Election Commission records show that on February 9th, aerospace and real estate tycoon Robert Bigelow donated $5 million to MAGA Inc., according to the publication.

The outlet noted further:

“On March 20, various committees associated with former President Donald Trump published their financial reports with the Federal Election Commission reflecting their February activities.

“The three organizations that issued a monthly report on March 20—the principal campaign committee Donald J. Trump for President 2024 Inc., the qualified leadership PAC Save America, and the super PAC Make America Great Again Inc.—reported they collectively had about $63.1 million in cash on hand at the end of February.

“The three groups, as a whole, raised about $28.7 million in total receipts and sent out about $22 million in total disbursements.”

Bigelow, the president and founder of Bigelow Aerospace, a company located in North Las Vegas, Nevada, made a generous donation of $20 million to Never Back Down Inc., a super PAC that backed DeSantis in 2023. Additionally, he contributed $10 million to a political fund in Florida that supported DeSantis in 2022.

Bigelow serves as the president of Your Best Management Group LLC, the owner of Budget Suites of America. In 2023, he announced his decision to shift his allegiance to Trump due to his disappointment with DeSantis’ campaign.

Meanwhile, Trump’s campaign continues to receive positive coverage, causing concern within President Joe Biden’s campaign. Just the News recently published a series of polls indicating that Trump has either maintained or expanded his lead over Biden in seven crucial swing states.

“Trump leads Biden by 4% in Arizona, 1% in Michigan, 3% in Nevada and 3% in Wisconsin, according to four polls released Wednesday and Thursday by Emerson College Polling/The Hill,” the outlet noted, citing the surveys.

“Trump is also ahead of Biden by 3% in North Carolina and 4% in Georgia, according to polls released Wednesday by the Marist Institute for Public Opinion. Meanwhile, an Emerson College survey released last week shows Trump leads Biden by 4% in Pennsylvania,” the outlet continued.

That being said, Donald Trump’s advantage falls within the range of uncertainty in at least three states: Michigan, Wisconsin, and Nevada. Furthermore, he is within the 3.6 percent margin of error according to the Marist poll in North Carolina.

It is important to note that these figures do not include third-party candidates, so they may change, especially if Robert F. Kennedy manages to secure a place on the ballot. Currently, he has successfully completed the necessary steps to secure a ballot position in Nevada, Utah, Hawaii, and New Hampshire, as stated on his website. The Biden campaign is clearly feeling the pressure, as they have started aggressively raising funds. Additionally, earlier this month, they made a $30 million ad purchase in several battleground states.

According to Politico, the Biden campaign is launching a six-week, $30 million advertising blitz in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina. The aim of this ad campaign is to highlight various Biden initiatives related to climate change and abortion, while also addressing concerns about the president’s mental sharpness. This campaign aligns with a broader effort by the administration to gain support among black Americans and young people, especially considering Trump’s lead in the polls.

Politico also pointed out that the ad fails to mention the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, instead choosing to focus on Trump’s alleged infringement on women’s reproductive rights. The ad specifically targets minorities and young voters, with a strong emphasis on social media platforms. Additionally, it will be aired on cable networks such as ESPN, TNT, FX, and Comedy Central, as confirmed by the campaign.

Breaking: Top Election Official CONVICTED

Kimberly Zapata, a former Wisconsin elections official, expressed her frustration with Republicans discussing the ease of committing voter fraud. In response, she made the decision to unlawfully send three ballots to a GOP state representative, with the intention of silencing her.

However, Zapata’s claimed motivations did not sway the jury, as she was found guilty of election fraud. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that it took approximately five hours for the jury to reach this verdict. Zapata, who previously held the position of deputy director at the Milwaukee Election Commission, was convicted of one felony charge of misconduct in public office and three misdemeanors for providing false information to obtain absentee ballots.

It is clear that Zapata’s actions did not achieve the desired outcome. She will face sentencing on May 2. Zapata had been employed by the commission for seven years but was terminated shortly before the 2022 midterms when it was discovered that she had sent the military ballots to the residence of GOP state Rep. Janel Brantdjen. During that time, Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson confirmed that Zapata had admitted to the scheme.

“This has every appearance of being an egregious and blatant violation of trust,” Johnson said, according to WITI-TV. “I was stunned, absolutely stunned, to hear the very serious allegations against her.”

Zapata’s defense claimed that she sent the ballots to Brandjen “because she knew she would not cast the ballots and because of her history with election fraud claims,” the Journal Sentinel reported.

“She is the most vocal election fraud politician that I know of, and I thought that maybe this would make her stop and think and redirect her focus away from these outrageous conspiracy theories to something that’s actually real,” Zapata told the police.

“I did not think it through,” she added . “I didn’t have some manipulative plan.”

The rationale behind her actions? Engaging in this unlawful behavior was an integral aspect of fulfilling her duties as an election official.

It was then reported that Zapata felt “frustrated” by what she interpreted as “meritless issues” regarding election integrity and “wanted to alert them to what she viewed as a true vulnerability in Wisconsin’s voting system. To do that, she has said, she generated three ballots under the names of fictitious military members and sent them to one of the legislature’s leading election deniers.”

She mentioned that at first, she had a “flicker of optimism” that the clerks who received the request would identify the requests for fraudulent ballots as dubious and refrain from issuing them.

“That’s not how it unfolded, however, and all three military absentee ballots were sent to Brandtjen’s Menomonee Falls home,” the Journal Sentinel reported.

Prosecutors were having absolutely none of it however, as the Assistant District Attorney told the jury: “The appropriate way to raise a concern is to bring forth information, it’s not to commit a crime.”

“If Ms. Zapata felt this information needed to be brought to light, there was multiple, legitimate avenues she could have taken. She chose instead to take the avenue of breaking the law.”

WATCH: CNN Panel STUNNED As Guest Breaks The Bad News

According to a pollster, the act of seizing former President Donald Trump’s New York properties by the hands of New York State Attorney General Letitia James could potentially benefit him in his pursuit of the White House. Pollster Frank Luntz made this statement during his appearance on CNN on Thursday.

It has been speculated that James might initiate the seizure of Trump’s properties on Monday, following a civil fraud case in which Trump was ordered to pay millions of dollars, with a payment of $464 million due on that day.

Trump has expressed difficulty in making this payment, which is required by state rules for him to file an appeal. Consequently, there is speculation that James is prepared to seize Trump’s properties located in Westchester County, an affluent area in New York state. Luntz believes that if James proceeds with this action, it would inadvertently assist Trump.

“I want you to remember this moment. And don’t forget it,” Luntz said in a video of the segment posted by Mediaite.

“If the New York Attorney General starts to take his homes away, starts to seize his assets, it’s all going to be on camera. Pundits are going to sit there and scream about this, ‘This man cannot be elected.’ You’re going to create the greatest victimhood of 2024. And you’re going to elect Donald Trump,” Luntz said.

“If they take his stuff, he’s going to say that this is proof that the federal government and the establishment in the swamp in Washington, and all the politicians across the country and the attorneys generals and all of this, that this is a conspiracy to deny him the presidency,” he said.

“He’s going to go up in the polls, just like he went up every single time they indicted him. The indictment — and let’s not talk about whether it’s justified or not — but it will prove the things that he’s saying on the campaign trail, and he will go up, and it may just elect him president. Do not forget that,” Luntz said.

Luntz then went on to give James a piece of advice, saying: “And I say this to the attorney general right now, if you play politics on this, this is what the secretaries of state did in Colorado, and what they did in, I believe is Maine, his numbers went up in both states,” he said.

“I don’t understand. I’m almost speechless in how pathetic the opposition to Trump has been and how completely misguided. And this is a perfect example of it,” he said.

Breaking: New House Speaker BETRAYS Conservatives

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) defied the objections of the majority of House Republicans and pushed through a substantial $1.2 trillion government funding plan. This move not only violated the Hastert Rule, which was put in place to prevent Republican Speakers from collaborating with Democrats to pass legislation, but also crossed a dangerous line for the future of his speakership.

Despite facing opposition from 112 Republican colleagues, Johnson proceeded to send the bill to the Senate with only 101 Republican votes in favor. It is worth noting that Johnson and his leadership team exerted significant pressure to secure these votes. In addition to breaking the Hastert Rule, Johnson also disregarded a House rule that allows lawmakers sufficient time to review legislation before voting on it. The spending bill, which spanned over 1,000 pages, was presented to members less than 36 hours before the vote, in the early hours of Thursday morning.

The bill will now move on to the Senate, where efforts are underway to overcome obstacles and pass it as soon as possible. While a partial government shutdown would technically commence on Saturday morning after midnight, its significant impact would not be felt until Monday.

Ahead of the vote, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) filed a motion to vacate the chair, anticipating that Johnson might violate the Hastert Rule and due to objections regarding the overall process, policies, and spending outlined in the unpopular bill. However, this motion is not considered privileged and does not require immediate attention from the House. Nevertheless, Greene has the option to change the motion to privileged in the future.

By filing this motion on Friday, Greene has intensified the pressure on Johnson. Despite facing criticism from fellow Republicans, Johnson had not yet passed such a substantial spending bill against the objections of his party, who had entrusted him with the speakership just a few months ago.

The House is set to reconvene following a two-week Easter break, with Johnson potentially facing a rebellion from one side and pressure to approve billions in foreign aid from the other. Greene’s resolution serves as a caution to Johnson, warning him that he risks removal if he tries to allocate American taxpayer money to support Ukraine’s conflict with Russia. Assuming the Senate approves the bill as anticipated, Congress will promptly shift its focus to funding for the upcoming fiscal year, a matter that must be resolved before October. Johnson will encounter similar challenges in securing government funding by the deadline, but it is doubtful that his own party will support him in passing a funding bill against their wishes once more.

SHOCK: Dozens Killed In Deadly Terror Attack

ISIS has taken credit for an assault at a well-known concert venue complex close to Moscow on Friday, resulting in a minimum of 60 fatalities and 145 individuals being admitted to the hospital after attackers invaded the venue with firearms and incendiary devices, as per CNN. Footage from the scene of the incident, the Crocus City Hall concert venue, displays the extensive complex, which houses both the music hall and a shopping center, engulfed in flames with smoke rising into the sky.

State-controlled RIA Novosti stated that the armed perpetrators “initiated gunfire with automatic weapons” and “hurled a grenade or an incendiary bomb, leading to a fire.” They subsequently “reportedly escaped in a white Renault vehicle,” the news agency disclosed. State media outlet Russia 24 disclosed that the roof of the venue has partially collapsed.

Trump Scores Multi-Billion Dollar PAYDAY

Former President Donald Trump is poised to receive a substantial sum of $3.5 billion following the approval of the merger between Digital World Acquisition Corp. and his Truth Social by shareholders. This financial boost coincides with New York Attorney General Letitia James’ efforts to seize Trump’s assets to cover a $464 million bond related to his civil fraud case in New York.

The merger, which had been delayed for an extended period, was finally greenlit by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) last month. This development will result in Trump’s company, Trump Media & Technology Group, being publicly traded under the stock symbol “DJT” as early as next week.

Upon completion of the merger, Trump will hold close to 79 million shares in the combined entity, valued at approximately $41 per share. Although there is a six-month lock-up period before he can liquidate his stake, there is speculation that Trump may request an exemption to access the funds sooner to cover the bond and pursue an appeal in the fraud case.

Prior to the merger, Trump’s legal team had stated earlier this week that paying the bond in cash would be extremely difficult.

Shock Video: Violent Mob Chases Conservative Students Off Campus

A group of unruly individuals instilled fear in conservative students present at a Turning Point USA gathering with Kyle Rittenhouse at the University of Memphis. The individuals aggressively pursued conservative students while hurling vulgarities and threats of violence. Some students, who were part of a campus Bible study, were also caught in the commotion. Witnesses claim that the group directly threatened TPUSA leadership.

Extremist activists celebrated the disorder. No arrests have been reported. The TPUSA members sought safety in a nearby secure location.

The Tennessee state legislature should promptly investigate why the university failed to provide adequate security and look into allegations of administrative interference with the event.

Just In: Another Major Company Goes BROKE After Going Woke

Planet Fitness’s market value took a significant hit of $400 million, causing it to drop from $5.3 billion to $4.9 billion. This decline in value can be attributed to the cancellation of a gym membership in Alaska, where a person had photographed a male transgender individual shaving in the women’s locker room. The incident gained widespread attention after being shared on the popular X account Libs of TikTok, which is known for its opposition to transgender influence and radical gender ideology.

The account criticized Planet Fitness for prioritizing inclusivity over the safety and privacy of women. In response to the drop in market value, Libs of TikTok celebrated the outcome and encouraged their followers to continue boycotting the fitness chain.

“Whoa. Planet Fitness saw $400 Million wiped off its value since we broke the story of them allowing men in female lockers rooms and then banning the woman who exposed it. Turns out people don’t want to support companies who cave to gender pseudoscience and allow men in womens’ private spaces! #BoycottPlanetFitness Do not let up! Keep it going!”

Patricia Silva, the patron whose membership was revoked, claims that a 12-year-old girl was in the locker room when the man started shaving. Planet Fitness has verified the cancellation of Silva’s membership while reiterating their dedication to “inclusion.”

“As the home of the Judgement Free Zone, Planet Fitness is committed to creating an inclusive environment,” said the company.

“Our gender identity non-discrimination policy states that members and guests may use the gym facilities that best align with their sincere, self-reported gender identity. The member who posted on social media violated our mobile device policy that prohibits taking photos of individuals in the locker room, which resulted in their membership being terminated.”

Breaking: MTG Moves To Take Down Anti-Trump DA

Judge Scott McAfee of Fulton County Superior Court declined to disqualify District Attorney Fani Willis from the case involving Donald Trump. However, Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has taken steps to have Willis disbarred due to her connection with a prosecutor hired for the Georgia election interference case against Trump. Greene stated on the X platform that she is seeking disbarment of Willis for what she described as corrupt behavior.

Willis “should’ve been removed from her political persecution of President Trump after it was revealed she went on lavish vacations with her lover Nathan Wade,” Greene wrote, adding: “The lover she paid HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of dollars! Unfit to serve!”

In a complaint submitted to the State Bar of Georgia on Wednesday, she expressed her desire for an inquiry into Fani Willis, urging for her suspension and subsequent disbarment.

According to reports, Greene condemned the judge overseeing the election interference case for not disqualifying Willis and for failing to determine that she lied about her connection with Wade, the special prosecutor appointed by Willis. It is possible for anyone to lodge a complaint against a Georgia lawyer, but the process is kept confidential, making it uncertain whether the Georgia State Bar will look into Greene’s complaint.

Ultimately, the Supreme Court of Georgia holds the ultimate power in deciding on any public disciplinary actions against a lawyer, as per Newsweek.

VIDEO: Top Dem Shows Up to Hearing Wearing a Putin Mask

As House Republicans persist in their investigation into accusations of influence peddling by President Joe Biden’s family, a Democratic representative opted for a fresh strategy to express disapproval towards the hearing. During the proceedings, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) was observed wearing a mask resembling Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Democrats have leveled accusations against Republicans, claiming that they have been deceived by Russian propaganda regarding corruption allegations against the Bidens.

The credibility of these allegations gained momentum following the arrest of Alexander Smirnov, an FBI informant connected to Russian intelligence, for providing false information to the FBI regarding an alleged multi-million dollar bribery plot involving Joe Biden.

Moskowitz sarcastically responded to questions as though he was Putin, saying, “I just came to thank James Comer for taking all of our intelligence and using it in committee.”

“Maybe he can come see the technology in our grocery stores,” he quipped.
