President Trump rolled out a new statue on the Resolute Desk this afternoon, depicting the moments after he was shot in the ear during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, 2024.
It can be recalled that Trump was shot in the ear by Thomas Matthew Crooks mid-speech in Butler last July, and he immediately ducked for cover as counter-snipers took the shooter out.
Iconically, Trump stood up moments later and began pumping his fist, chanting, “Fight, fight, fight.” After being stuck by a bullet, the president demanded that the Secret Service agents let him remain on the stage for a moment before pumping his fist in the air.
One rallygoer, Corey Comperatore, was killed in the July 13 shooting, and two were injured.
Several questions still remain as to how this was allowed to happen, and we are still waiting for answers.
The president later returned to the site of the assassination attempt last October for another historic rally to finish his July speech that was suddenly interrupted by gunfire.
The new statue was seen on the right side of the Resolute Desk during an Oval Office ceremony this afternoon.
Also seen on the left side of the desk was a bust of Lincoln and a copy of his 1987 memoir, the Art of the Deal:

The president signed four bills in the Oval Office on Friday, all of which rolled back harmful Biden-era regulations, including on gas water heaters, efficiency requirements for walk-in coolers and freezers, household appliance energy conservation standards, and energy standards for commercial refrigerators and freezers.
Senator Jon Husted (R-OH), Senator Ashley Moody (R-FL), and Representatives Gary Palmer (R-AL), Stephanie Bice (R-OK), Craig Goldman (R-TX), and Brian Jack (R-GA), the sponsors and co-sponsors of the bills, joined the President during the ceremony.
