James Copenhaver, 74, was discharged from Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh on Friday, as confirmed by a spokesperson for Allegheny Health Network. Copenhaver suffered &#8220;life-altering injuries&#8221; when a gunman opened fire during Trump&#8217;s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13. In a statement released by his family three days post-shooting, they expressed gratitude for the support and prayers received during Jim&#8217;s recovery from this tragic and senseless act of violence. The statement also included thanks to first responders and medical staff who provided care to him. Additionally, Copenhaver extended his thoughts and prayers to other victims and their families as well as to President Trump. Another injured attendee, David Dutch, was discharged last Wednesday after sustaining gunshot wounds to his chest and liver. Tragically, firefighter Corey Comperatore lost his life in the shooting incident. The FBI confirmed that a bullet grazed Trump\u2019s ear when 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire. Last week, the House voted unanimously to establish a bipartisan task force aimed at investigating this assassination attempt. On Friday, Trump announced plans to return to Butler for a rally dedicated to honoring Comperatore and the two injured individuals<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3192,"featured_media":2315390,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trump-fist-2.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[3870,4133,4433,4300,3634],"class_list":["post-2315389","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-hospital","tag-news","tag-rally","tag-shooting","tag-trump"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trump-fist-2.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2315389","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3192"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2315389"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2315389\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315390"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2315389"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2315389"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2315389"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
