Trump Assassination Attempt Photo Wins Top Pulitzer Prize

The New York Times photographer who captured the eerie moment before President Donald Trump was nearly shot and killed has been awarded one of journalism’s most prestigious awards.

Pulitzer Prize winners were announced in a Monday night ceremony that was made all the more remarkable for recognition of the photograph by Doug Mills; in it, a speeding bullet can be seen flying by Trump’s head moments before the shot rang out and Secret Service agents tackled him to the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania.

The July 13, 2024, rally became synonymous with Trump’s unwillingness to back down in the face of opposition, even if it is deadly. He rose from beneath a pack of agents to chant “fight, fight, fight” while pumping his blood-stained right hand in the air, another significant moment captured by Mills and other photographers in the pool.

Days after the shooting, Mills spoke about the hysteria surrounding him that day and how he held his position even as he knew he was facing fire from a deranged gunman.

“I just happened to be down, shooting with a wide-angle lens just below the president when he was speaking. There was a huge flag waving right above his head, and I just happened to be taking pictures at the same time,” he said during the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
