Trump fundraising pitch features U.S. soldiers killed in Iran war
President Donald Trumps political action committee this week sent a fundraising email promising donors private national security briefings by the president himself and featuring a photo from the dignified transfer for U.S. service members killed in Kuwait.
For the first time ever, Im opening up spots on the National Security Briefing Membership, reads the email, from Trumps Never Surrender Inc. PAC.

A fundraising email from President Donald Trumps political action committee has a provocative pitch: using an image from Saturdays dignified transfer honoring six fallen US soldiers, it promises access to the presidents private national security briefings.
The email, sent by Never Surrender, Inc., promotes what it calls a National Security Briefing Membership and urges recipients to claim your spot with multiple links to donate, in what it describes as an exclusive group receiving updates about national security threats.
It promises that members will receive my private national security briefings, unfiltered updates on the threats facing America. The straight truth on border invasions, foreign adversaries, deep state sabotage, and every danger the fake news hides.
The message includes an official White House photograph showing Trump saluting during a dignified transfer at Dover Air Force Base, a solemn military tradition honoring fallen US service members. Trump attended alongside members of his administration.
A flag-draped transfer case, which is used to transport soldiers remains, is visible in the photo.
Im the strong commander who stares down tyrants, obliterates terrorists, and never backs down, the fundraising email continues. This is for patriots ready to stand with that kind of unbreakable strength. Not for the weak or the wavering.
