Suspect charged with attempted assassination of Trump at Washington dinner

Federal campaign finance records show he donated $25 to a Democratic Party political action committee in support of Kamala Harris for president in 2024.According to an affidavit, the accused sent an email to his family shortly before the attack that said, "Administration officials... are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest"."I would still go through most everyone here to get to the targets if it were absolutely necessary," he allegedly added.He was remanded in custody and prosecutors said more charges could be filed.The accused has not been co-operating with investigators, law enforcement sources told the BBC's US partner CBS. As US investigators look into the third alleged assassination attempt against Trump, security officials are reviewing the president's protection protocols.Many have questioned whether the security perimeter at the Washington Hilton was strong enough, why attendees were not asked to show ID at the event, and why the president, vice-president and others in the line of succession were all gathered in one place.
