Donald Trump is safe and unharmed after gunshots were fired near him at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, around 2:00 PM on Sunday. He had been walking between the fifth and sixth holes when the shots were fired. Fox News is reporting that Secret Service members opened fire after spotting a man with an AK-47 in nearby bushes. Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Teri Barbera says a “person of interest” is already in police custody.

“The former president is safe. We will have more details soon,” Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement. Trump also reportedly told Fox News host Bret Baier: “Tell everybody I am fine and the Secret Service did a great job.” The FBI has confirmed the organization “is investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination” of former President Donald Trump, according to CNN.

The White House also put out a statement on the shooting. “The President and Vice President have been briefed about the security incident at the Trump International Golf Course, where former President Trump was golfing. They are relieved to know that he is safe. They will be kept regularly updated by their team,” they wrote. A few hours after the incident, Trump addressed the situation in an email to his supporters. “There were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!” he wrote. “Nothing will slow me down. I will NEVER SURRENDER! I will always love you for supporting me.”

The latest apparent assassination attempt comes after another man shot at Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania in July. Be on the lookout for further updates on Donald Trump and the 2024 Presidential Election on HotNewHipHop.

50 Cent’s “Many Men” Producer Isn’t Thrilled About The Song’s Viral Connection To Donald Trump

July 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Darrell “Digga” Branch, who produced 50 Cent’s iconic song, “Many Men,” isn’t thrilled about the song going viral in relation to Donald Trump surviving an attempted assassination attempt. Speaking about the situation during an interview with TMZ, Branch explained that he speaks out against Trump every chance he gets, so he found it all ironic.

“At first when I seen the incident happen, I thought it was something staged that Trump was doing,” Branch began. “I thought he was up to his old tricks. But it seemed like an hour and social media just started working. I started getting notifications like crazy. Everybody started getting creative.”

He continued: “Part of me can see why people are connecting it to the situation. But the other side of me is like, ‘How did this even happen?’ I’m not feeling dude at all. I’m not voting for him. People that know me and are close to me know that I go in hard on him every chance I get. So, to have that situation happen like that and then now all of the sudden, the irony of my song being connected to this is just crazy.” Check out his full comments on the situation below.

“Many Men” Producer Speaks Out

Trump was fired at several times while speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania, earlier this month. The only bullet to hit him merely grazed his ear.

Donald Trump’s Physician Details The Injuries He Sustained During Assassination Attempt

July 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Donald Trump has released a statement from Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), who served as the former President’s physician. In the statement, Jackson described him as “doing well” in the time since he survived an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, last weekend. While speaking at a rally in the state, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks fired several shots in his direction, nicking his ear with one of the bullets.

“The bullet passed, coming less than a quarter of an inch from entering his head, and struck the top of his right ear,” Jackson wrote in the statement. “There was initially significant bleeding, followed by marked swelling of the entire upper ear. The swelling has since resolved, and the wound is beginning to granulate and heal properly. Based on the highly vascular nature of the ear, there is still intermittent bleeding requiring a dressing to be in place. Given the broad and blunt nature of the wound itself, no sutures were required.”

Donald Trump Speaks At First Rally Since Assassination Attempt

Jackson concluded: “In summary, former President Trump is doing well, and he is recovering as expected from the gunshot wound sustained last Saturday afternoon. I am extremely thankful his life was spared. It is an absolute miracle he wasn’t killed.” Check out the full statement below.

Donald Trump’s Doctor Speaks Out

Trump, himself, previously addressed the shooting during his speech at the Republican National Convention, earlier this week. “My hand was covered with blood,” Trump said of the immediate moments following the gunfire. “Just absolutely blood all over the place. I immediately knew it was very serious, that we were under attack. And in one movement proceeded to drop to the ground.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Donald Trump on HotNewHipHop.

Kodak Black Slams Plies Over Donald Trump Slander In Wake Of Assassination Attempt

July 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kodak Black called out Plies on Instagram Live, earlier this week, after Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Kodak, who has backed the former President ever since he pardoned him for gun charges back in 2021, warned Plies to stop speaking out about Trump. “We ain’t going for no Trump slander,” Kodak remarked after bringing up Plies. “Trump ain’t done nothing to you. You feel me? You rich. We rich.” Plies has been highly critical of the Republican candidate for years at this point.

When No Jumper posted the clip on Instagram, hip-hop fans had mixed responses to Kodak’s take. One defended him for staying loyal to Trump. “Ngl if a n***a free me from prison u my dawg for life,” they wrote. Another praised Plies for speaking up: “Plies get so much respect from me he’s not voting for the guy that’ll feed his interest since he’s a millionaire he’s voting for the best interests of his people who don’t got it and who’s policies aren’t aligned with the republican agenda.”

The doctor at the hospital said he never saw anything like this, he called it a miracle.” He happened to turn his face slightly to the right just before a gun was fired in his direction. In turn, the bullet only nicked his ear.
