"Prior to the president's return to West Palm Beach, USSS discovered what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand within sight line of the Air Force One landing zone," Patel said on Fox News.

"No individuals were located at the scene. The FBI has since taken the investigatory lead, flying in resources to collect all evidence from the scene, and deploying our cell phone analytics capabilities."

USSS Chief of Communication Anthony Guglielmi released a statement where the USSS was working along with both the FBI and Palm Beach County's law enforcement to coordinate the investigations.

"During advance security preparations prior to the Palm Beach arrival, which included the use of technology and comprehensive physical sweeps, our teams identified items of interest near Palm Beach International Airport," Guglielmi reported.

He also added that "there was no impact to any movements and no individuals were present or involved at the location."

"While we are not able to provide details about the specific items or their intent, this incident underscores the importance of our layered security measures," he added.

Although it has not been established whether the hunting stand was connected to a plot against the president, the discovery comes against the backdrop of Saturday's nationwide "No Kings" protests, which, as The Daily Signal reported, included calls for Trump's death and support for political violence. The incident also comes barely a month after the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Trump himself was the target of two separate assassinations attempts during his presidential campaign in 2024, including in West Palm Beach, Florida, where a man was perched with a rifle at the Trump International Golf Club.

Police officers later arrested the aspiring assassin, Ryan Routh, who was identified as a fully committed left-wing supporter, donating to Democrat organizations since 2019 and supporting Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

Last month, a jury found Routh guilty of five criminal counts, including attempting to assassinate a major presidential candidate and assaulting a federal officer.

He is scheduled to face his sentence in December of this year. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
