BlackRock responds to Trump assassination gunman who starred in its commercial: strongly condemns any form of political violence, has deleted the relevant video

FOX Business executive Charles Gasparino revealed on X that BlackRock issued a statement on the fact that Thomas Crooks, the gunman who assassinated Trump, had appeared in its commercials: "The assassination attempt on former President Trump was outrageous. We are grateful that Trump was not seriously injured, and we are deeply saddened by all the innocent bystanders and victims involved in the incident, especially those who were killed. BlackRock strongly condemns any form of political violence and will do our part to promote civility and unity in the country. In 2022, we aired an ad featuring a teacher at Bethel Park High School, and several unpaid students briefly appeared in the background, including Thomas Matthew Crooks. We will provide all video clips to the relevant authorities, and out of respect for the victims, we have deleted the video from the Internet."
