Summary: Shots were exchanged between a shooter and Secret Service at Trump International Gold Club as the former President played. Trump was 300-500 yards away when the shooting occurred. FBI confirmed they are investigating this as an assassination attempt. Trump said after: "nothing will slow me down, I will never surrender." The shooter has been detained. An AK-47, backpack, and GoPro camera was recovered near the scene. The shooter has been identified as Ryan Routh, whose social media suggest was a Trump-hating, Ukraine-war-supporting liberal. Trump was NOT given complete perimeter protection, because he is not a sitting president (despite being hit by an assassin's bullet a couple of months ago) * * * Update (1615ET): The FBI issued a statement : “The FBI has responded to West Palm Beach Florida and is investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination of former President Trump.” Another official commented that Trump was "probably 300-500 yards" from the alleged shooter. The former president has issued a statement confirming he is "safe and well" and declaring "nothing will slow me down"... AP reports that the alleged shooter fled in an SUV and was later apprehended in a nearby county by local law enforcement, the officials said. The officials were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity about an ongoing investigation. An AK-style firearm was recovered at the scene near Trump’s golf course, one of the officials and a third law enforcement official said. The golf course was partially shut down for Trump as he played, and agents were a few holes ahead of him when they noticed the person with the firearm, the officials said. The person appeared to push the muzzle of the rifle through the fence line and that’s when agents fired, the officials said. CNN reported that police have recovered a backpack and a GoPro camera. They think the attempted Trump shooter wanted to film it. The following clip shows a heavy police presence on the roads leading to the golf club... Fox News is reporting the shooter's name is Ryan Routh... ...who, according his socials (which remain up for now) is supportive of liberal causes, particularly recruiting people to fight in Ukraine)... ...who was a Trump hater for sure... Meanwhile, as the blame is dumped at Trump supporters' feet once again, it turns out Secret Service was inadequate yet again... "The threat level is high," Rafael Barros, the special agent in charge for the Secret Service, Miami field office, said during the Sunday news conference. "We live in danger times," he added. * * * The Trump campaign on Sunday said that former President Donald Trump is safe after reports of gunshots in his vicinity outside the Trump International Golf Course. “President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity,“ a brief statement released by Trump spokesman Steven Cheung said. ”No further details at this time.” The U.S. Secret Service wrote on social media platform X that it is working with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office to investigate the incident, adding that it occurred before 2 p.m. ET. “The former president is safe,” the federal agency said. The sheriff’s office will provide more details about the incident “soon,” the agency added. CNN is reporting the shots were intended for the former president... CNN goes on to report that a person has been detained in connection to the incident at Trump International Golf Club on Sunday, according to a law enforcement source. Secret Service fired at the suspect, according to multiple sources. A long gun (Don Jr confirmed it was an AK-47) has been recovered, according to the source. Officials believe an armed individual intended to target former President Donald Trump at his golf club, according to sources briefed on the matter. However, The New York Post said two people exchanged fire at Trump golf club in Florida, targeting each other (a narrative that has since been deleted). The White House was quick to express their "relief" that Trump was not hit: “The President and Vice President have been briefed about the security incident at the Trump International Golf Course, where former President Trump was golfing. They are relieved to know that he is safe. They will be kept regularly updated by their team.” As the above suggests, no one is really sure WTF happened for now. However, one thing we know for sure, the same rhetoric that likely prompted the first assassination attempt has not stopped... MSNBC quickly responded with near-perfect projection, demanding that the Trump campaign tone down its rhetoric... Though, of course, everyone will quickly decry political violence... ...but, weren't we told that "words are violence" too?)
