Friday, Twitchy told you about the arrest of Good Samaritan Daniel Penny. Penny was charged by DA Alvin Bragg after protecting a train car full of citizens from a threatening stranger. After news of the arrest broke, a fundraiser was started to help Penny defend himself in a New York court.
We must defeat the Soros-Funded DAs, stop the Left's pro-criminal agenda, and take back the streets for law abiding citizens. We stand with Good Samaritans like Daniel Penny. Let’s show this Marine… America’s got his back.

Last night, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis tweeted the link to the fundraiser and Twitter was abuzz!
Thank you Governor DeSantis!
Patriots: please consider donating to the defense of this Good Samaritan protector, I just did.
Daniel Perry is being persecuted by the corrupt, Soros-backed leftist agenda, let’s help. https://t.co/64NqNw8Y7O

No surprise there! A veteran protected New Yorkers when Soros DAs, like Alvin Bragg, refuse to do their jobs.
Democrats are big mad!
Daniel Penny, is all of us. This is why so many people have bystander syndrome, because they’ll be the ones punished if they intervene to save others. If you can help, please do so. Even $1 adds up. He doesn’t deserve prison. God Bless.🙏 https://t.co/Hq7efDqZdV

People were so moved by the plea to help Penny, soon GiveSendGo had to release an update. The site was overwhelmed with traffic as so many people wanted to give. They also announced the fundraiser total was now over 1 million dollars! Wow!
UPDATE: We have had a big surge in our traffic and our servers were temporarily overwhelmed. We are aware and are a few minutes from resolving the issue. The campaign for Daniel Penny is over 1 million dollars and the money is secure.

Hooray and thank you for the update, I hope the contributions continue for Daniel as well as for the greater good of this country – this a strong message that we will not sit back and be ruled by an angry mob and ideologic DA’s.
