Governor Ron DeSantis Helps Raise $1.76 Million for Ukraine Relief Efforts in Partnership with Barrett-Jackson at Palm Beach

Over the weekend, Barrett-Jackson held its annual Palm Beach collector car auction – one of the company’s four annual auctions across the country. The auction proved to be Barrett-Jackson’s most successful Palm Beach auction to date with over $60 million in sales, but the single greatest story to come out of the event was the moment on Friday evening when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis helped Barrett-Jackson raise $1.76 million for Samaritan’s Purse, Franklin Graham’s charity that is currently providing much needed humanitarian relief to the people of Ukraine.

George Shinn, who has been on Fox News with Graham lately to promote Samaritan’s Purse, was one of the two individuals that donated a car for this initiative. Rick Hendrick was the winning bidder for the two cars, donating $1,000,000 to Samaritan’s Purse.

Governor DeSantis hammered the gavel marking them sold, leading to $760,000 in additional donations made from generous bidders in the room, including $100K donations from Shinn, Mark Pieloch (the other gentleman that donated a car), Barrett-Jackson’s Chairman, and CEO Craig Jackson and Barrett-Jackson’s President Steve Davis.

The wife got herself a pillow from MyPillow in support of Mike Lindell.

I guess I could run over to Barrett Jackson and buy one of their used cars...

Yes, because all that cash will honestly go “to the Ukrainian people.”

PT Barnum said it best.

There is a sucker born every minute.

I guess DeSantis supports Soros, Schwab, globalists and neo-
Nazis.
/s

BTW DeSantis is the superstar of this redistricting cycle. He saved the day from corrupt judges, shameless Democrats and fake Republicans.
