FBI Confirms Bullet Struck Trump's Ear in Assassination Attempt
The FBI has confirmed that former President Donald Trump was indeed struck by a bullet in the ear during an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally. This confirmation comes after conflicting accounts and doubts about Trump's injuries.
The FBI's statement, the most definitive account so far, has sparked fury from Trump and his allies. The lack of information surrounding the attack has fueled conspiracy theories.
The FBI's hesitation to support Trump's version of events has further strained the relationship between the former president and the federal law enforcement agency. Trump's former White House doctor, Ronny Jackson, has treated him since the attack but has faced scrutiny.
The FBI's Shooting Reconstruction Team is still examining evidence from the scene. Trump's campaign has declined to release medical records or allow the doctors who treated him to speak.
Senator Lindsey Graham has called on FBI Director Christopher Wray to correct his testimony, and Trump has criticized Wray, saying the FBI has lost the confidence of America. Jackson has defended the bullet wound account, dismissing conspiracy theories.
Trump has since been seen in public without a bandage on his ear.
