The Secret Service was warned of a “credible” threat in the days leading up to the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a July 13 campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, but failed to act accordingly, according to a damning bipartisan Senate report released Wednesday.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — The man accused of pointing a rifle into the golf course where former President Donald Trump was playing last weekend, was known in his hometown as something of a bad actor. “Weird” is how one of Ryan Routh’s former neighbors in Greensboro described him. She told reporters he once had a horse in his house and that he also kept guns. A man, who like the first neighbor asked not to be identified for fear of being associated with Routh, says he didn’t know the 58 year old well but got a similar vibe. “I mean, [he]...

A whistleblower with direct knowledge of Secret Service protection at former President Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach—an individual who has in fact protected President Trump at that very location-alleges there are "known vulnerabilities" in the fence line surrounding the course: places that offer a clear line of sight to the former president and others playing the course. As a result. the whistleblower alleges it has been Secret Service protocol to "post up" agents at these vulnerable spots when Trump visits the course. That apparently did not happen on September 15. Instead, the gunman was permitted to remain along...

Another Trump assassination plot?

The alleged would-be assassin who attempted to kill former President Donald Trump on Sunday, Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was once photographed with Biden-Harris administration appointee celebrity chef José Andrés in Kyiv, Ukraine. Routh, who allegedly was staking out the Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach with a scoped AK-47 on Sunday, appears to be obsessed with the Russia-Ukraine war, so much so that he wrote a book about it. In it, Routh shares a picture of himself alongside Andrés, who Biden appointed as co-chair of the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, & Nutrition in 2022.
