Ridgewood NJ, early Sunday morning, former President Donald Trump returned to New Jersey following a shocking incident at his Pennsylvania rally on Saturday. According to Reuters, Trump was seen descending the stairs of an aircraft upon landing in Newark. This moment was captured in a video posted at 12:37 a.m. on X (formerly Twitter) by Margo Martin, Trump’s deputy director of communications.
Trump had earlier posted on Truth Social, revealing that he was shot in his right ear during the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Despite the ordeal, Trump was reportedly headed to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
The tragic event left the rally in chaos, with the gunman and a bystander killed, and two others in serious condition. In response to the attack, New Jersey Congressman Van Drew released a statement condemning the violence:
“Our prayers are with President Trump and the families of those killed and injured in today’s senseless act of violence,” said Congressman Van Drew. “President Trump has always shown unwavering resilience and leadership in the face of adversity—from impeachment to indictment, arrest, and now attempted assassination—he consistently rises above. Regardless of political stance or personal feelings, violence is never justified in any circumstance. God bless President Trump, and may God bless America.”
The FBI has identified the gunman as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. In a statement released early Sunday, the FBI encouraged anyone with information that may assist with the investigation to submit photos or videos online at FBI.gov/butler or call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
Despite the scheduled plan for Trump to fly to Milwaukee for the upcoming Republican nominating convention, it is currently uncertain whether he will adhere to his original itinerary in light of the shooting.
As the investigation continues, the nation watches closely, awaiting further developments and hoping for swift justice for those affected by this act of violence.

This is the result in the democrats and the liberal media constantly for years spewing vitriolic decisive comments! All these comments are untrue. Like Obama said if you repeat the lie long enough it seems true!
You would think this story would top your list not the Ridgewood library.
Whoops! I see it topped your headline on 7/13! I’ll take that previous comment back!
