Yesterday there was an assassination attempt on the former U.S. President Donald Trump.

It was the first time a current or former U.S. president has been wounded from an assassination attempt in more than 40 years.

There has been a lot of commentary about the attempt, what it means for the future of Trump’s campaign and the state of U.S. politics more broadly. But one thing has been clear: all official authorities and the political community have condemned this act of political violence.

We’ll tell you what you need to know in today’s podcast.

Hosts: Billi FitzSimons and Sam Koslowski
Audio producer: Emmeline Peterson
