President Trump is once again doing what the Biden administration and federal agencies refused to do—providing transparency. Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump announced that he plans to release reports on the assassination attempts against him, bringing long-overdue answers to the American people.
“It’s been seven months. Why do you think we don’t know more about the guy who shot you in the ear?” Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked Thursday.
Trump’s response? “We can no longer blame Biden for that one.” He made it clear that these reports should have been released months ago, but now that he’s back in charge, he’ll make sure the truth gets out.
Trump was targeted twice in 2024. The first attempt occurred on July 13, 2024, at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump was shot in the ear, a rally attendee was killed, and two others were critically injured. Secret Service snipers eliminated the shooter within seconds, but a later Senate report found serious security failures leading up to the attack.
The second attempt happened on September 15, 2024, at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. A suspect armed with a rifle, Ryan Wesley Routh, was caught hiding in the bushes before a Secret Service agent spotted him and opened fire. Routh fled but was later captured while trying to drive away. His preliminary trial is set for September 8, 2025.
Why So Many Unanswered Questions?
Trump isn’t just releasing these reports out of curiosity—he’s concerned about strange details surrounding both attackers.
- Crooks supposedly had three apps on his phone, including two foreign-based applications, raising questions about who might have been influencing him. Despite his ordinary background, he somehow secured high-powered legal representation from a prestigious Pennsylvania law firm.
- Routh was found carrying six different cell phones, some with “strange markings”, raising even more red flags.
Trump rightly pointed out how suspicious it is that basic details about both suspects remain hidden. The FBI and DOJ have a history of stonewalling investigations, and their reluctance to release full information only fuels speculation.
Transparency, At Last?
Trump emphasized that he wants to release as much as possible but left the door open for security-related redactions.
“I would be willing to release it. I mean, maybe there’s a reason that we shouldn’t… but yeah, I would be very willing to release that. I’d like to see it.”
As always, Trump is prioritizing truth over secrecy—something federal agencies should have done in the first place. The American people deserve to know who was really behind these attacks and why they’ve been kept in the dark for so long.
