One Year Anniversary of the Attempted Assassination of President Donald J. Trump

One year ago today, our nation witnessed a tragic and cowardly attempt to silence a leader through violence. On July 13, 2024, an assassin’s bullet nearly claimed the life of President Donald J. Trump. It was an assault not only on one man, but on the millions of Americans who stand behind the principles of free speech, liberty, and the America First agenda.

By divine intervention and God’s grace, President Trump turned his head at the precise moment that spared his life. We thank the Almighty for His protection that day. Evil may have aimed to take a life, but instead, it only strengthened the resolve of a nation determined to reclaim its voice and future.

We honor the life and legacy of Corey Comperatore.   And we stand with President Trump’s commitment to seeking justice in his name.  

Today, we pause to reflect on the fragility of freedom and the cost of leadership in times of division. But more importantly, we honor a president whose courage, resilience, and vision continue to inspire millions. We pray for President Trump’s continued strength and protection as he leads our great country forward.

The America First movement is not just a campaign-it is a cause. And it is a cause that will continue to grow stronger, not in spite of adversity, but because of it.
God bless President Trump, God bless New Mexico, and God bless the United States of America.
