Former President Donald Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Thomas Crooks fired five shots from an AR-15 rifle from a 120-yard distance. The incident highlighted critical security lapses compared to the SPG protocols for India's PM Modi, which include limited exposure and thorough sweeps. Footage revealed disorganised Secret Service personnel, insufficient Bullet-resistant shields, and Sniper protection. This event recalls the assassination of Japan's former PM Shinzo Abe and underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive review of security measures for political candidates.

Ike Riffel, who lost his sons, Melvin and Bennet, in the Ethiopia
crash, fears that Boeing will be offered a deferred prosecution
agreement (DPA) or be allowed to skip trial.
In 2021, the DOJ charged Boeing
with fraud for misleading
regulators regarding the 737 MAX.
However, prosecutors went on to accept
an agreement that could see felony charges
against Boeing dropped in three years.
'Newsweek' reports that the DOJ reopened the
possibility of prosecuting Boeing in May,
claiming the company breached the original 2021 deal.
Now, the DOJ has until July 7
to determine whether it will
file charges against Boeing.
Families of those who died in the two Boeing crashes
have pushed for high-ranking Boeing officials to be
prosecuted and the company to be fined $24 billion.
We want to find
some meaning in
what happened
to our loved ones. , Ike Riffel, father of two Boeing 737 crash victims, via 'Newsweek'.

safer so this doesn't
