Former President Donald Trump this month will host a screening of "Sound of Freedom," the surprise hit film about rescuing sex-trafficked children that has been embraced in right-wing circles, his 2024 campaign announced Thursday.
"Sound of Freedom" has made more than $53 million as of Wednesday, Deadline reported.
Utah-based Angel Studios distributed "Sound of Freedom," selling tickets through an online "pay it forward" campaign.
Other conservative outlets have defended the film from its critics, and Ballard has pushed back on those linking it to QAnon.
That outlandish right-wing internet conspiracy revolves around the idea that Trump was secretly fighting against shadowy, powerful rings of satanic pedophiles.
