Many questions are being asked in the aftermath of the July 13 assassination attempt on Donald Trump at the fairgrounds in Butler, Pennsylvania. Among them are how the U.S. Secret Service (USSS) counter-sniper (CS) teams reacted before and after Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, fired shots from the roof of a building less than 450 feet from where Trump was speaking. Those shots killed a man, bloodied Trump, and wounded at least two others.

Experienced Snipers Break Down The Trump Assassination Attempt

The U.S. Marine Corps is interested in “buckshot-like” canister rounds for 5.56x45mm and 7.62x51mm rifles, as well as .50 caliber machine guns and 40mm grenade launchers, to help smaller units better tackle rising drone threats. The service is also eyeing the possible acquisition of electronic warfare jammers small enough to be strapped onto individual rifles, as well as larger, but still readily portable jammers and advanced gun sights. This is part of a broader effort to enable every Marine to protect themselves against enemy uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), details about which the service laid out earlier this year as you can read more here.

With an assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, the U.S. experienced another violent episode in its increasingly polarized politics. Former President Trump, who’s about to formally become the GOP nominee for president in the 2024 election, survived the attempted assassination when, initial reports said, a bullet grazed his ear . But one rally attendee was killed , more spectators were injured and the suspected gunman is also dead. The Conversation’s politics editor, Naomi Schalit, spoke with University of Massachusetts, Lowell, scholar Arie Perliger after the event. Perliger offered insight from his study of political violence and assassinations. Given the stark political polarization in the U.S., Perliger said, “it’s not a surprise that eventually people engage in violence.”
