ATW Livestream Tonight, 8 pm ET/7 CT: "Apparent Assassination Attempt" Recap
Walter Kirn and I review another crazy weekend, followed by a frenetic news Monday
Racket readers may have heard that a not-at-all-sketchy personage named Ryan Routh set up with an “AK-47 style rifle” not far from where Donald Trump was golfing in West Palm Beach yesterday. A BBC account says he hid for 12 hours in “shrubbery”:
Local authorities said a U.S. Secret Service agent who was stationed one hole ahead of Trump on the Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach spotted an AK-style rifle sticking out of a fence. The suspect holding the rifle was hiding in the shrubbery some 300 to 500 yards away from the Republican presidential nominee.
This is yet another story changing by the half-hour. Tune in for a recap and check-ins with coverage.

Did Routh have a job? Was he retired? How did he afford traveling to Ukraine?
Like Snowden said, there's definitely an Oswald vibe here.
