President Joe Biden raked in $30 million during a fundraising event in Los Angeles June 15, headlined by Hollywood stars and former President Barack Obama, according to his campaign.
Actors George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Barbara Streisand were among those who took the stage at the Peacock Theater event. Singers Sherry Lee Ralph and Jack Black also performed.
During the event, President Biden and former President Obama were interviewed by late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, who questioned the two about former President Donald Trump, who holds a lead in recent swing-state polls.
Mr. Kimmel opened his remarks with a strong expression of support for President Biden, saying “so much is at stake in this election.” He cited abortion, health care, and election laws as being among the top issues in 2024.
