evidence: Investment giant BlackRock is pulling an ad that included Thomas Crooks, the gunman who shot at Donald Trump, injuring the former president and killing an attendee at a rally near Pittsburgh on Saturday. "In 2022, we ran an ad featuring a teacher from Bethel Park High School, in which several unpaid students briefly appeared in the background, including Thomas Matthew Crooks," a spokesperson for the company said Sunday. "We will make all video footage available to the appropriate authorities, and we have removed the video from circulation out of respect for the victims." [...] BlackRock said the assassination attempt on former President Trump was "abhorrent" and is "thankful" that he wasn’t seriously injured.
