New angle of assassination attempt on President Trump from behind

Chaotic new footage of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump gives a fresh insight into the moment he was swarmed by Secret Service agents, knocking off his shoes.

The video, filmed from behind the stage and obtained by WBEN, shows Secret Service agents huddling over Trump, shielding him from possible further gunfire, just seconds after his ear was hit by a bullet fired by would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks.

An agent is then seen tossing Trump’s shoes off the stage — with the defiant GOP candidate quickly getting to his feet and calling out, “Let me get my shoes, let me get my shoes.”

Trump could be heard saying "let me get my shoes,” as he stood up after nearly being killed.

The previously unseen angle of the shooting then shows agents trying to escort a disheveled Trump off stage but are briefly stopped when he puts his fist up in the air to assure the crowd he was not killed.

The footage then captures an up-close view of the former president being safeguarded away from the stage, surrounded by a gaggle of Security Services agents, as rallygoers chant “USA!” and applaud before the video ends.

Trump, 78, cleared up why his shoes were off in an interview with The Post on Sunday.

“The agents hit me so hard that my shoes fell off, and my shoes are tight,” Trump said.

The former prez also commended the Secret Service — who have come under much scrutiny since Saturday’s assassination attempt — for their heroic actions.

“They did a fantastic job,” he shared. “It’s surreal for all of us.”

Trump also added he told the agents he wanted to return to the podium and “keep speaking,” but he “just got shot,” so they wouldn’t allow it.

One of the rallygoers positioned in the front row behind Trump when he nearly was killed explained the moments leading up to the recently released video.

“At first, I seen him grab his ear, but then he went down,” said Rich from Angola, NY, told WBEN. “We didn’t notice he was wounded, but then the Secret Service jumped on top of him right away.”

Rich noted that the Secret Service remained very professional during the attempt on Trump’s life and that “they did their jobs exactly the way you would expect them to do it.”

Another New Yorker attending the Pennsylvania rally detailed the mayhem that broke out seconds after the shots were fired.

“We were trying to get closer to the area that [Trump] was, and so therefore, we saw one of the Secret Service men going toward the [stage], so we followed him. And soon after that, we heard that pop, pop, pop, pop. And somebody said, get down,” Joyce Gallagher told the outlet.

“Your brain is trying to process the pop pop, it could be anything, it could be firecrackers. It could be some kind of prank or whatever. But, you know, that’s the point where the surreal comes into play. Immediately, you saw people on the stage ducking, and you also notice people saying, ‘Get down, seriously get down’ and I have never seen people flatten on the ground as far and as fast as I did.”

Crooks, 20, narrowly missed Trump as the presidential hopeful spoke at the rally, grazing the politician’s ear, at his campaign rally in Butler, Pa.

The gunman apparently shimmied up on top of a nearby building, army-crawled into position with a rifle, and squeezed off at least five to seven shots from about 130 yards away at the former president before Security Service snipers killed him.

“They took him out with one shot right between the eyes,” the former president said, praising the snipers.

Trump made an appearance Monday at the GOP convention, two days after he was left bloodied by a sniper’s bullet.

When the 78-year-old former president emerged from the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, most of his right ear was wrapped in a bandage.

This Boy’s Bold Move with $13 Catapults His Family to a $2 Million Home

A young boy asked his mom for the last $13 she had saved for food so he could start a business. A few months later, he took her back to their tiny, old trailer and handed her the keys to their new $2 million home.

Annie Byrne, a mother from Atlanta, believed in teaching her son, Simon, the value of hard work and determination. She knew this would help him grow into a responsible person.

“Who cares if my son and I live in a rusty old trailer now? One day, he will take me to a palace and make me its queen!” Annie, a widow who worked as a janitor and struggled to get by, often dreamed of a better life.

One day, a mother’s prayers were answered in the most unbelievable way when her son handed her the keys to a $2 million house. But she didn’t know what sacrifices he made to make her dream come true.

“Mom, when will we live in a nice house?” 13-year-old Simon asked his mother. “It’s getting cold, and it’s cramped inside.”

Simon’s mom, Annie, didn’t know how to reply. She had very little savings, and her salary barely covered food and school costs for her son.

“Very soon… we’ll move very soon,” she told Simon, holding back tears. “Now close your eyes and go to sleep.”

Annie couldn’t sleep, though. She knew “soon” might never come. That night, she sat by Simon, heartbroken, thinking their struggles would never end.

The next morning, Simon’s friends asked him to play, but he didn’t go. He couldn’t be happy knowing how much his mom was struggling. While walking alone, Simon saw a boy earning money at a lemonade stand.

“Wow!” Simon thought. He wanted to start a small business, but he had almost no money. He left disappointed, but then an idea hit him. He ran home, excited.

“Mom, can I have some money?” he asked. Annie was hesitant.

“Son, I only have $13 left. That’s for food until I get paid next week,” she said.

But Simon was determined. “Mom, please trust me. Just give me the $13. I promise you won’t regret it.”

Reluctantly, Annie gave him the money, curious about what he’d do with it.

Later, Simon returned with several packets in his hands. Annie asked what they were, but he didn’t answer and grabbed a shovel. She watched in disbelief as he dug up the yard around their trailer, planting seeds from the packets.

“What are you doing?” she asked.

Simon smiled and said, “Mom, if we plant today, we’ll harvest tomorrow!”

At first, Annie didn’t understand. But over the next few weeks, Simon worked hard, watering and caring for the garden. Soon, the yard was filled with fresh herbs and plants.

Annie thought they’d use the produce for themselves, but Simon surprised her.

“Mom, we can’t eat this,” he said. “I’m selling it at a little stall I’m setting up. We’ll use the extra for ourselves.”

Simon’s fresh produce became popular. People loved his natural, chemical-free vegetables, and soon, everything he sold was gone quickly. As his business grew, Simon realized he needed more space to grow more crops. He expanded the garden and started growing fruits and flowers too.

As the money rolled in, Simon and Annie moved into a rented house. Annie even quit her janitor job to help Simon in the garden. Their stall grew, and soon the whole town knew about them.

But their success attracted the jealousy of a wealthy farmer named Alex, who couldn’t believe a young boy was doing so well. Curious, Alex visited Simon’s garden one day.

“How do you grow such healthy produce without chemicals?” Alex asked.

Simon replied, “People should eat food, not poison. We use natural methods to keep the plants safe.”

Impressed, Alex realized he had misjudged Simon. Instead of competing with him, Alex asked Simon to partner with him. Simon ran to ask his mother if he should accept the offer.

After thinking it over, Annie agreed. Simon balanced school and working on Alex’s farm while still tending to his little garden.

Their business took off. They started selling produce not just locally but even to neighboring states. Two years later, Simon saved enough money to build a new house on the same spot their trailer once stood. With Alex’s help, the house was finally built.

When Simon handed his mother the keys to their new house, Annie cried tears of joy. Her dream had come true.

“Simon, you gave up your childhood to make me happy,” she said, hugging him. “I love you.”

Simon smiled. “I can still play and have fun, but I couldn’t watch you struggle. I’ll always be your little boy!”

Though Simon was now successful, he never forgot the small garden that started it all. He kept growing the crops but never sold them again.

“We should enjoy the fruits of our hard work, Mom,” he said, laughing. “We’re going to eat this ourselves!”

Simon’s business continued to grow, and there were rumors
