High of 500,000, which included access to a more exclusive gathering. The event was sold out and more than 5000 people came out to support the reelection effort. Donald trumps event was a more expensive affair. It was hosted by Hedge Fund Billionaire john paulson and his 110 million Oceanfront Home in palm beach, just a few minutes away from maralago. He got very rich off of the team big against subprime mortgages in 2007 at the height of the credit bubble. Trump was the main event a few allies and former primary opponents, tim scott, doug burgum offered remarks as well. Tickets started at 250,000 at the low end. At the high end, some attendees paid the maximum contribution of 814,000 which got them a seat at the trump table. According to a Trump Campaign in official, the fundraiser was attended by 117 guests at the event was closed to the press, but former President Trump did offer brief, seemingly enthusiastic on camera when he arrived at the mansion. It is a great honor to be hereor. It will be a very spectacular evening and people are just wanting change. Rich people wanted. Poor people wanted. Everybody wants change in the country is doing poorly. We are a laughing stock All Over The World and we will get that changed quickly. He sure needs some change. In fact, nobody has been scrounging for change as much as donald trump has. P the four time that it president is facing 4 million in legal penalties and more money in mounting Attorney Fees despite his record haul last night, he will still be tens of millions of dollars behind joe bidens massive cash advantage. This week, republicans reported trump in the rnc pulled in 65. 6 million in march and ended the month with 92. 1 million in cash. Meanwhile, joe biden raised 90 million last month alone. His campaign now has 192 million on hand. Trumps rallies are not pointed as much money as previous campaigns and his legal Ulcer Draining the coffers. In toy story 3 trump used 55 million of donor money to pay for various fees related to his multiple cases, which is why last nights fundraiser is notable. It showcased the billionaires are coming back home for trump. After period of hesitation some notable megadose of gotten back on en board among those listed of the cochairs last night were las vegas businessman robert guillot. He donated 20 million to never back down to support Ron Desantiss bid. He told reuters he had recentlyc given trump on 1 million for his legal fees. He also said he promised to give 20 million more to former President Trumps super pac. Who says good friends are hard to find . Even some figures that spurned trump after january 6th are ready to come back into the fold. Eric levine, a prominent republican fundraiser said he would not vote for trump after the inspection. He was lucid and make email saying due to a dramatic change in circumstances, i have decided i will vote for trump in november similarly, what if the insurrection, the Billionaire Investor Nelson Peltz apologized for 2020. He told the Financial Times that he probably will vote for trump and cited the border and by then the past this mental condition. Joining us now is barbara in mcquade, former United States attorney, msnbc analyst and author of the book, attack from within. Allie vitelli joins us as well. The other member of the club on msnbc and capitol hill correspondent for msnbc news. She is the author of electable. Welcome to both of you. Allie vitelli, lets talk about this. The election is happening. Election day is a long way away. Has mythic about fundraising . Most of us do not get up everyday thinking about what it means. Frankly, nor should you. I do think the amount of money and i was listening to a center to the segment, what a Staggering Amount of cash. 90 million on hand for trump and we say it is a small amount, that is actually stunning. It again brings me back to the station we had on friday night. The idea of do you know who is influencing people who are trying to leave the country . We see the continued Push S Against dark money donors and various senators. Pushes the go nowhere, but were threeechoing. The e,second thing is a conversation we have been having about the way that trump is using Campaign Cash because he is spending so much time in courtroom. Those two things to be diametrically opposed. The way that trump has fused them and make sense people are willing to give him this cash, go to court fees because those things are very much the same now. The campaign is the courtroom and the courtroom is o a campaign for donald trump. The one thing i have been noticing, and this is a conversation with the folks i have on our team that cover trump regularly, is the idea that the rally scheduled is so much lighter than those of us that have covered him in the d past have experienced. It could beof course he has the court cases. Rallies are expensive to put on. Watching the way they are financed in the way the money is used will be critically important. It is why we cover the many games now because it will inform the ground game later. Barbara, the campaign is the courtroom and the courtroom as o the campaign. That is what trump trhas been trying to achieve where a judge has not told him is literally not to, he walks to cameras and talks about it. It is amazing listening to these donors who have given money to his legal fees and are given the maximum to his campaign. This line has really been blurred. There is an old saying that no publicity is bad publicity ub and all publicity is good publicity. Donald trump is leaning into that. Is fulfills his narrative that he is a victim and it is about grievance and he has been targeted because they are not after him, they are after you. It is an opportunity every time there is Press Coverage of what is happening at the courthouse. He will sees that covered opportunity to campaign and shares grievances. To the point about billionaires providing assistance, is a former National Security official, when i hear that reporting what i hear is someone who will have leverage over the levers of power in our country. I participated in Security Background Questionnaires and interviews for people who are working in jobs with fbi and the department of justice. Consistently, the questions would be sources of income and s leverage and opportunities for blackmail or undue influence of people before they were able to have access to our nations secrets to. A president does not go through a background investigation. And concerned that people who are bailing him out now with in billions of dollars will have undue influence over the president. It is no surprise to the three of us here or anybody watching us that donations for political campaigns are about influence. S it is surprising to me the ri degree to which people are open about it. I have given him 1 million for his legal fees and i will give 20 million to the super pac. We do not believe any of this breaks any laws because our laws allow for this. A tale as old as time, especially in the way the money goes to super pacs. Super pac when he gets used differently than campaign money. One of the things that is obvious is advised. Campaigns purchase ads at lesser rates than super pacs. It is political strategy and managing the entities. I think it is notable, in especially when you see the folks who criticized him after january 6th and openly questioned his Mental Fitness and are now coming home. It reminds me of something someone said to me yesterday. This is republicans falling in line. All of this is what we should be expecting. B though i think many of us like to think january 6th was a ry pivot point in the way that we think conventional politics and the rule trump plays it. I do think there are questions about what the influence factor is. I know barbara comes of this National Security perspective. I look at it from the policy effective. Iv last night trump told folks do not worry, your taxes will stay low. That is what they want to hear. And one of the reasons they say we will phone line despite our pesky systems because the policy make sense. The naove among us barbara, may have but january 6th would be a Turning Point. Beyond january 6th, they continued assault on democracy. The rallies every week. Last night was an exception. The rallies he has on Saturday Night or the midweek when he had in grand rapids, michigan in which he is surrounded by uniformed Law Enforcement and he is talking about the vermin at the border. He is talking about bloodbaths. I wouldve thought that would give Business People pause, but that would mean i am naove. The association that donald trump continues to increase with violence is a little different this time that it was before. It is. The rhetoric has been so much violence, bloodshed, bloodbath and all these things. It is important to remember that business is business. If donald trump can promote and promise deep tax cuts, then i suppose they are voting with the bottom line. You do not to look too far to see parallels between this and put twos russia where Re Oligarchs Get rewarded. You have to get people who will normalize your message. The way you do that is through financial incentives. If you can get Business Leaders on board and your promise in exchange is they will benefit from your administration. I will extract money for the poor and give it to you in exchange for putting me in power. I think that is what we are seeing. Across monetary incentive for Business To Support donald trump in the hope that he will make the more profitable. To create detriment to the rest of society, when you think about the division in society and some of the other things that donald trump represents. Including the threat of clinical violence. House arrest of the Campaign Going . Donald trump did what he did in 2016 and 2020 and what he did in michigan. Show them how big the crowd is. They want to that. Will not turn the camera around and show you. This is all part of his playbook. Having been there from in arguably the first rallies of 2015, i sometimes wonder if i am not waken up in a time warp of that everyday. The fundamentals have not changed. You have folks who are saying it is a more professionalized Trump Campaign. Certainly, you look at the people running it. Susie wiles commands immense respect. All of that is going on and is a lasting trump effect. The way that he is campaigning. The Crooked Hillary Moniker is now the Crooked Joe Biden moniker. It is the same thing over again. As i was traveling covering nikki haley, i was struck by the number of people who were still willing to say that they felt they were stolen from in 2020 and this is their path to retribution. When trump says that, a lot of us look at that and take umbrage with that. And there are reasons we should. The way that voters have metabolized that and the way itd is now in the bloodstream there is really something i always need to take seriously. It informs so much. You dont have to agree with it, but you need to know is out there and is working. This is what a lot of people increasingly tell us these days. Ignoring this is at your peril. Thank you both of you.

When a person is deprived of food for a prolonged period, meaning they are not taking in enough calories to keep up with the bodys energy needs, starvation begins to set in. The body relies on stored fat for energy. Within a few days, when there is no food the human body begins to feed on itself. The body consumes the things inside of it to keep itself alive. Carbohydrates, fat and protein parts of the tissues. While the body is working overtime to provide basic energy needs, other vital organs are being ignored. The heart, the lungs, the ovaries do not get the necessary nutrients. Heart function decreases. The heart can shrink to less than half of that said size information. Kidney functions are impaired and the Immunity System weakens. Meaning a starving person becomes more susceptible to other deadly diseases. The brain is deprived of energy it needs to function which provides mood swings and different difficulty concentrating. The body is nothing left to scavenge but the bones. The meccas and neck ache becomes of extreme hunger which causes acute physical and mental distress. That does not last long because your body is already wasting away and soon your heart will fail. That is death by starvation. It is a slow and cruel death. Right now, the entire population of gaza, 2. 2 Million People, do not have enough available calories. Half of the population, 1. 1 Million People are on the brink of acute starvation and famine is projected to take hold in Northern Gaza anytime between now and may. This is all according to a u. N. Backed report by the ipc, integrated Food Security phase classification. That assessment was from mid march. Less than three weeks later, the situation has escalated radically. In a Government Cable obtained by the huffington post, a group of the military and experts from the u. S. Agency for International Development are warming that feminine famine is already likely happening in parts of gaza. It goes on to say that the spread of hunger and malnutrition in gaza is unprecedented in modern history and the pace of hunger related deaths will accelerate in the weeks ahead. Famine is not a word thrown around lightly. In fact, historically, famine is incredibly rare. Famine is more than hunger. Famine can last a lifetime and leave scars on the nations evolvement for decades. It reads more instability and violence and perpetuates a vicious cycle of poverty, nursing a famished nation to be dependent on other countries for ai
