From a botched Secret Service operation that nearly cost Trump his life, to a Sunday shootout in Kentucky, and the passing of Nigeria’s iron-fisted former president Buhari, July 13, 2025, was a day soaked in chaos, bullets, and the bitter sting of history repeating itself.
In a move that smells more like a bureaucratic slap on the wrist than true accountability, the Secret Service sidelined six agents after a would-be assassin nearly turned Butler, Pennsylvania into Dealey Plaza 2.0.

Today’s cartoon slices through the fog of modern warfare like a B-2 through Tehran’s airspace—exposing a Pentagon flex and a press corps too bored, buzzed, or clueless to notice the smoke.
President Trump’s blockbuster week saw him torch Iran sanctions after Khamenei’s victory lap, ink a rare earth-packed trade deal with China, and dodge a Senate bid to curb his war powers—all while reminding Washington who’s calling the shots. Welcome to Saturday, June 28, 2025. This is your SOFREP Morning Brief.
President Trump calls it a knockout blow, but early intelligence suggests Iran’s nuclear program may have only taken a standing eight count.
