News summary

Billionaire Timothy Mellon donated $50 million to the pro-Trump super PAC Make America Great Again Inc. the day after Donald Trump was convicted of 34 felonies, marking one of the largest single campaign contributions ever. This donation significantly bolstered Trump's campaign, helping to raise $141 million in May, surpassing the $85 million raised by President Joe Biden's campaign. Mellon, who has also donated extensively to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s independent campaign, is now the first donor to contribute $100 million in disclosed federal contributions this election cycle. The super PAC plans to use the funds for an extensive advertising campaign in key states through Labor Day. This influx of funding is expected to have a considerable impact on the 2024 presidential race as both Trump and Biden ramp up their campaign efforts.
