“That just happened,” the House Judiciary GOP wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The House Committee on the Judiciary pointed out a recent remark made by President Joe Biden.
Biden told donors during a private call on Monday, “I have one job, and that’s to beat Donald Trump. I’m absolutely certain I’m the best person to be able to do that. So, we’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye,” as Politico reports, citing a recording obtained.
Others also posted Biden’s “bullseye” remark.
Gun shots were heard at Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. Per the Daily Mail, “Trump grabbed at the side of his face and blood spattered across his cheek as several popping sounds were heard, sending supporters running for safety. The former president quickly pumped a fist at the crowd to show he was not severely injured, as Secret Service agents raced to the stage to hurry him away.”
“He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility,” Trump’s spokesperson Steven Cheung said, per NBC News.
Biden wrote in a statement after the Shooting, “I’m grateful to hear that he’s safe and doing well. I’m praying for him and his family and for all those who were at the rally, as we await further information.”
The president continued: “Jill and I are grateful to the Secret Service for getting him to safety. There’s no place for this kind of violence in America. We must unite as one nation to condemn it.
Law enforcement sources say the shooter was located on a roof outside of the venue. The shooter was referred to as a sniper, per CNN. As CNN also reports, per a Secret Service source, Secret Service killed the shooter. Additionally, the incident at the rally resulted in the death of an attendee.
The Secret Service wrote in a statement, “During Former President Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on the evening of July 13 at approximately 6:15 p.m., a suspected shooter fired multiple shots toward the stage from an elevated position outside of the rally venue.”
