In a remarkable display of solidarity and support, a high-profile fundraiser has raised over $4 million for the victims of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. The incident occurred during a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday. Among the notable contributors are UFC President Dana White and musician Kid Rock, who have significantly bolstered the fundraising efforts.

Corey Comperatore, the victim of the shooting, was a firefighter, a churchgoer, and a father of two daughters who loved his community and family deeply. He was also an enthusiastic Trump supporter and was excited to be at the event last night.

Mr. Shapiro spoke with Comperatore’s wife, who asked him to share, “Corey died a hero,” as he dove to protect his family.

“Corey was the very best of us,” the governor said. “May his memory be a blessing.”
