Trump campaign reveals donors contributed $34 million in just hours  

'Nearly double the biggest day ever recorded'  

Donors are trashing the guilty verdict for President Donald Trump coming from a leftist Manhattan jury, whose members followed the instructions of a judge with multiple factors confirming a bias against Trump, in a case brought by a Democrat prosecutor who claimed, without evidence of a crime, he would "get" Trump if elected.

It earlier was reported that after the verdict Thursday on charges that reporting Trump's business legal fees as business legal fees was improper, his campaign website was overwhelmed by contributors, and crashed.

It came back shortly later.

And now the campaign has announced that donors contributed nearly $34.8 million, "nearly double the biggest day ever recorded for the Trump campaign on the WinRed platform," in just a matter of hours.

"Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrats with their election interference political witch hunt have awakened the MAGA movement like never before," the campaign confirmed.

"From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million … from small dollar donors. Not only was the amount historic, but 29.7% of yesterday's donors were brand new donors to the WinRed platform.

"President Trump and our campaign are immensely grateful from this outpouring of support from patriots across our country. President Trump is fighting to save our nation and November 5th is the day Americans will deliver the real verdict," said a statement delivered by campaign advisers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles.

It was reported Thursday just after the verdict was delivered that the donation page crashed. The page, for a time, displayed a 500 error stating “something went wrong.”

Trump also received massive influxes of cash from major donors after the verdict, including from Sequoia Capital partner Shaun Maguire, a previous supporter of Hillary Clinton.

"The timing isn’t a coincidence,” Maguire wrote on X. (WND) Read more

- We thank You, Oh Lord, that on Thursday night, the American people voted with their wallets -- the votes that make a difference in any campaign. This amazing response to the verdict that ruled against President Trump is a testimony that many of our citizens can still think straight and not be fooled or
beguiled by criminals within our judicial system who have evil intent. Praise the Lord!


- "For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light." (Mark 4:22)

Joe Manchin Leaves Democratic Party, Registers as Independent

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) announced on May 31 that he has left the Democratic Party and become an independent.

“My commitment to do everything I can to bring our country together has led me to register as an independent with no party affiliation,” Mr. Manchin wrote in a post on the social media platform X, showing a picture of himself with what appeared to be a voter registration form.

“I have seen both the Democrat and Republican parties leave West Virginia and our country behind for partisan extremism while jeopardizing our democracy. Today, our national politics are broken and neither party is willing to compromise to find common ground.”

Mr. Manchin’s departure from the party does not change Democrat control of the Senate. He joins Sens. Kyrsten Sinema (I-Ariz.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), both of whom caucus with the Democrats.

- Father God, in this year when we are beginning to witness the changing of power in our government, we ask that each man or woman who is making a decision to do so would seek You first and be led by the Spirit in every decision being made. Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayer, amen and amen.

- "If any of you lack wisdom, let him go to the Father who gives to all men and without reproach and it shall be given to him." (James 1:5)

Iran behind recent attacks on Israeli embassies in Europe 

The Islamic Republic of Iran is behind a series of terrorist attacks carried out by criminal gangs targeting Israeli embassies throughout Europe since Oct. 7, the Mossad intelligence agency said on Thursday.

The Israeli intelligence agency opened up a probe alongside European counterparts after an object believed to be a hand grenade was thrown towards the Israeli embassy in Stockholm on Jan. 31.

Following an investigation, detectives concluded that Sweden’s Foxtrot organized crime network carried out the attack on the compound at Tehran’s behest, the Mossad said on Thursday. (JNS.org) Read more

- Thank You, Father, that the Mossad has now revealed this information to the public. We ask for Your hand of protection to rest upon all who are working inside these Israeli embassies around the world.
