Donald Trump selected JD Vance of Ohio as his running mate, opting for a loyalist who aligns with his MAGA brand, rather than balancing the ticket.

A new report alleges a law enforcement officer encountered the shooter who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump before he started shooting. Officials who spoke to the Associated Press on condition of anonymity say an officer climbed up to the roof where Thomas Matthew Crooks was lying with his rifle.

Bucks County Beacon

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.”
