SUMMARY: Senator JD Vance addressed the Georgia Faith and Freedom Coalition’s annual Victory dinner, marking his first public comments on the recent assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump. Vance attributed the threat to divisive political rhetoric from the left, noting that while Trump faces danger, no similar threats have emerged against liberal figures. The event aimed to mobilize Christian conservative voters ahead of the November elections, emphasizing Georgia’s critical role as a battleground state. Meanwhile, authorities are investigating the suspect, Ryan Ralph, who attempted to harm Trump with an AK-47 near his golf club and has a criminal history.

The GOP vice presidential nominee made the comment at a campaign event Monday night

SUMMARY: During a city council meeting in Atlanta, opponents of the Public Safety Training Facility, known as “Cop City,” disrupted proceedings by hurling ping pong balls, symbolizing the 100,000 signatures they collected to place the issue on the November ballot. Protesters accused city leaders of voter suppression, demanding that the decision be put to the public. The issue remains unresolved in federal court, with the council unlikely to call for a referendum, as many support the facility, which has faced criticism from environmental and civil rights groups. Tensions rose as arrests were made during the chaotic demonstration.

An audience filled with demonstrators against the construction of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Facility chanted “You dropped the ball,” while hurling ping pong balls during an Atlanta City Council meeting.

SUMMARY: The FBI is investigating the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump within nine weeks. Body cam footage has been released showing the arrest of suspect Ryan Ruff, who was apprehended after being found hiding near Trump International Golf Course. Secret Service agents shot at Ruff after spotting him with a rifle, positioned 300 yards away from Trump, who was unharmed because he wasn’t in the suspect’s direct line of sight. Ruff is currently in custody facing two gun charges, with potential federal charges expected later. Increased security measures are being planned for upcoming Trump events.
