Rapper and entertainment mogul 50 Cent posted an image to his Instagram account reading, “Take on the king, make sure you don’t miss” in response to Saturday’s assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
“If you challenge a king, don’t fail,” 50 Cent said in an Instagram post, paraphrasing a sentiment taken from Niccolo Machiavelli’s The Prince.
Meanwhile, in X, the rapper shared a photo of President Trump with a bloodied face following the assassination attempt, writing, “I know the vibe ♂️ We’re all in a rough spot right now!”
The photo includes a clip from 50 Cent’s 2003 song “Many Men (Wish Death),” which includes the lyrics, “Many men wishing me death, blood from the eyes, dogs, and I can’t see, I’m trying to be what I’m destined to be, and the knickers are trying to take my life.”

Secret Service veteran Dan Bongino told X in an interview after the assassination attempt, “There’s no question that USSS Director Kim Cheatle repeatedly refused requests to increase security around President Trump, despite knowing the threat level was catastrophic.”
Bongino called on Cheatle to resign.
Again, there is no question that USSS Director Kim Cheatle has repeatedly refused requests to add more security around President Trump, knowing that the threat level is devastating.
I’m resigning tonight. https://t.co/v3UQyTt1dK— Dan Bongino (@dbongino) July 14, 2024
Notably, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Mississippi), who was the leader of then-Speaker Rep. Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) now-disbanded January 6th Select Committee, introduced a bill in April 2024 targeting President Trump and stripping him of Secret Service protection if he was convicted.
