Trump Calls Off Iran Peace Talks. DJT Disapproval Hits Record High. GOP Senators Losing Confidence In Hegseth. Independent Brian Bengs Officially On The Ballot In South Dakota.

A 31-year-old with a shotgun, a pistol, and a stack of knives tried to assassinate Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. A Secret Service agent took a round to the vest. Wolf Blitzer lost a shoe. And UFC's Dana White called it "awesome." Paul Rieckhoff — combat veteran, IAVA founder, 9/11 first responder and past attendee of the event — flies solo on this Manosphere Monday to put the attack in context: this is our normal now, and the president most responsible for the atmosphere is the same one weaponizing it against the press. And, he takes you inside what the event (and the security) are really like.

From there it's a full and fast briefing — the collapse of Iran negotiations and Trump's billion-a-day bombing math, oil over $100 a barrel, Macron calling out the new axis lining up against Europe, GOP senators admitting Hegseth couldn't get reconfirmed today, and the White House's pearl-clutching campaign to cancel Jimmy Kimmel. Plus a real reason for hope: independent veteran and Senate candidate Brian Bengs officially on the ballot in South Dakota with the highest signature validation rate of any statewide candidate this cycle, and a Ukrainian grandma rescued from a shelled-out village by a ground robot with a blanket that read "grandma, get in." Independence is an attitude. Stay vigilant.
