Australiër McEvoy verbetert wereldrecord op 50 meter vrije slag

SHENZHEN (ANP/AFP) - De Australische zwemmer Cameron McEvoy heeft het zeventien jaar oude wereldrecord op de 50 meter vrije slag verbeterd.

‘October 7 was a turning point’: Trump’s pro-Israel fundraising accelerates

ALMOST AS SOON AS PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN announced he would halt a weapons shipment to Israel, Steve #Witkoff’s iPhone started buzzing.

“Every one of my friends started calling and asking, ‘What can I do for Donald Trump?’” Witkoff, a pro-Israel donor and fundraiser for Trump’s presidential campaign, told The Bulwark.

‘October 7 was a turning point’: Trump’s pro-Israel fundraising accelerates.

Plus: What has pro-Israel Democrats in Congress worried.

Last month the New York Times reported on a dinner Donald Trump had with a small group of donors,
-- including large backers of his 2016 campaign, Robert #Mercer and his daughter Rebekah Mercer.

Other attendees included entrepreneur Omeed #Malik, cosmetics firm founder Trish #McEvoy and real estate billionaire Richard #Kurtz.

In April the Mercers and Malik were among a few dozen co-chairs of a Trump fundraising dinner hosted by John #Paulson, along with other notable co-chairs including Wilbur #Ross, Steve #Wynn, Howard #Lutnick, Robert #Wood, Kelly #Loeffler, Kenny #Troutt and Linda #McMahon – who is also a board director of Trump Media which owns Truth Social.

The Trump campaign claimed it raised over $50 million at the event.

Donald Trump is facing a cash crunch that puts him at a severe disadvantage to President Joe Biden

No surprise that in March he dined with a small group of donors
including hedge fund billionaire Robert #Mercer and his daughter Rebekah, according to two people with knowledge of the event.

Trump’s dinner companions also included entrepreneur Omeed #Malik, cosmetics firm founder Trish #McEvoy and real estate management billionaire Richard #Kurtz, one of the people said.

The Mercers, McEvoy and Kurtz did not respond to requests for comment. A spokesperson for Malik declined to comment, and a Trump spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.

The Mercers were a critical source of support behind Trump’s win in the 2016 presidential election. The family was conspicuously quiet during Trump’s 2020 reelection effort.
But both Robert and Rebekah Mercer have lent their names for an invitation to a high-dollar fundraiser April 6, along with Malik. And their appearance with Trump at the dinner is additional evidence of a rekindled relationship

Donald Trump, facing a cash crunch that puts him at a severe disadvantage to President Biden, dined on Thursday night with a small group of donors including the hedge fund billionaire #Robert #Mercer and his daughter #Rebekah, according to two people with knowledge of the event.
Mr. Trump’s dinner companions also included the entrepreneur #Omeed #Malik, the cosmetics firm founder #Trish #McEvoy and the real estate management billionaire #Richard #Kurtz, one of the people said.
The Mercers, Ms. McEvoy and Mr. Kurtz did not respond to requests for comment. A spokesman for Mr. Malik declined to comment, and a Trump spokesman did not respond to a request for comment.

The Mercers were a critical source of support behind Mr. Trump’s win in the 2016 presidential election.
In addition to giving donations, they pushed him to make changes to his political team, including making #Kellyanne #Conway his campaign manager and #Stephen #Bannon his chief executive.
