Another assassination attempt on President Trump is described after a 21-year-old man entered the secure grounds of Mar-a-Lago with a shotgun and a gasoline canister and was shot dead by Secret Service. The episode argues this is the third attempt in less than two years and links rising political violence to increasingly profane Democratic messaging and ads, citing remarks from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and an Illinois Senate campaign ad. Barbara Boyd discusses threats from Susan Rice and Jake Sullivan toward corporations and law firms, framing them as part of a broader “lawfare” and psychological campaign against Trump’s tariff-driven economic agenda. The script then focuses on the Supreme Court striking down Trump’s IEEPA tariffs, criticizing groups and amici opposing the tariffs, and highlights administration claims that tariffs will be re-established under other authorities with revenue unchanged. It closes by citing economic outcomes after one year: a reported 17% decline in the trade deficit, new factory investment, and expanded nuclear and advanced energy initiatives.
