WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Secret Service announced Sunday that an armed man was shot and killed after entering the secure perimeter of Mar-a-Lago, President Donald Trump's resort in Palm Beach, Florida.

Mar-a-Lago Shooting

Although Trump often spends weekends at his resort, he was at the White House during this incident. First lady Melania Trump was also with the president at the White House on Saturday night.

The name of the person who was shot has not been released. According to the Secret Service, he was "observed by the north gate of the Mar-a-Lago property carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can." The incident took place at 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

The suspect, who was in his early 20s and from North Carolina, was reported missing a few days ago by his family. Investigators believe he left North Carolina and headed south, picking up a shotgun along the way, Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said. The box for the gun was recovered in his vehicle, Guglielmi said. The man drove through the north gate of Mar-a-Lago as another vehicle was exiting and was confronted by Secret Service agents, Guglielmi said. The agents confronted the armed man and he was fatally shot. Investigators are working to compile a psychological profile and a motive is still under investigation.

He was shot by Secret Service agents and a Palm Beach County sheriff deputy, the agency said.

Trump has faced threats to his life before. He was wounded during an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in Butler, Pa., on July 13, 2024.

Then on Sept. 15, 2024, a man with a rifle was captured after waiting near Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach while the president played a round. He was sentenced to life in prison earlier this month.

The incident comes as the U.S. has been rocked multiple times in recent years by political violence. Just last year, that included the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the assassination of the Democratic leader in the Minnesota state House and her husband and the shooting of another lawmaker and his wife, and an arson attack at the official residence of Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.

The incursion on Saturday at Trump's Florida home is a few miles from his West Palm Beach golf club where a man tried to assassinate Trump while he played golf during the 2024 election. A Secret Service agent spotted that man, Ryan Routh, aiming a rifle through the shrubbery before Trump came into view. Officials said Routh aimed his rifle at the agent, who opened fire and caused Routh to drop his weapon.

Routh was found guilty last year and sentenced this month to life in prison.

That incident came months after Trump survived an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania campaign rally. That gunman had fired eight shots, with one bullet grazing Trump's ear, before being shot by a Secret Service counter sniper.

The White House did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment.

U.S. Secret Service agents and a Palm Beach County Sheriff's office deputy shot and killed a man who entered the secure perimeter at Mar-a-Lago with "what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can," Secret Service announced ina statement on Sunday.

The suspect's identity has not been released yet because of "pending notification of next of kin," the statement said.

"U.S. Secret Service agents and a PBSO deputy confronted the individual and shots were fired by law enforcement during the encounter," the Secret Service statement said. "No U.S. Secret Service or PBSO personnel were injured."

President Donald Trump was not at Mar-a-Lago during the incident.

NEW YORK (AP) — Lawyers for imprisoned British socialiteGhislaine Maxwellare fighting the requested release of 90,000 pages related to disgraced financierJeffrey Epsteinand Maxwell, saying a law used to force the public release of millions of documents is unconstitutional.

The lawyers filed papers late Friday in Manhattan federal court to try to block the release of documents from a since-settled civil defamation lawsuit brought a decade ago by the lateEpstein victim Virginia Giuffreagainst Maxwell. The Justice Department recently asked a judge to lift secrecy requirements on the files.

Maxwell's attorneys said the Justice Department obtained the documents — otherwise subject to secrecy orders — improperly during its criminal probe of Maxwell. They said the documents include transcripts of over 30 depositions and private information regarding financial and sexual matters related to Maxwell and others.

Some records from the year-long exchange of evidence in the lawsuit battle were already released publicly in response to a federal appeals court order.

Maxwell's lawyers say a law Congress passed in December to force the release of millions of Epstein-related documents violates the Constitution's separation of powers doctrine.

"Congress cannot, by statute, strip this Court of the power or relieve it of the responsibility to protect its files from misuse. To do so violates the separation of powers," wrote the lawyers, Laura Menninger and Jeffrey Pagliuca about theEpstein Files Transparency Act.

"Under the Constitution's separation of powers, neither Congress nor the Executive Branch may intrude on the judicial power. That power includes the power to definitively and finally resolve cases and disputes," the lawyers added.

The release of Epstein-related documents from criminal probes that began weeks ago has resulted in new revelations about Epstein's decades-long sexual abuse of women and teenage girls. Some victims have complained that their names and personal information were revealed in documents while the names of their abusers were blacked out.

Members of Congress have complained that only about half of existing documents, many with redactions, have been made public even as Justice Department officials have said everything has been released, except for some files that can't be made public until a judge gives the go-ahead.

Giuffre said Epstein had trafficked her to other men, including the formerPrince Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. She sued Mountbatten-Windsor in 2021, claiming that they had sex when she was 17.

Hedenied her claimsand the two settled the lawsuit in 2022. Days ago, hewas arrested and held in custodyfor nearly 11 hours on suspicion of misconduct in having shared confidential trade information with Epstein.

Ina memoirpublished after she killed herself last year, Giuffre wrote that prosecutors told her they didn't include her in the sex trafficking prosecution of Maxwell because they didn't want her allegations to distract the jury.

Maxwell, 64, was convicted in December 2021 and sentenced to 20 years in prison. Epstein took his own life in a federal lockup in August 2019 as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges. Maxwell wasmoved from a federal prisonin Florida to a low-security prison camp in Texas last summer after she participated in two days of interviews with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.

Two weeks ago, she declined to answer questions from House Oversight Committee lawmakers in a deposition conducted in a a video call to her federal prison camp, though she indicated through a statement from her lawyer that she was "prepared to speak fully and honestly" if granted clemency.

The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Saturday.

NEED TO KNOW

• Christian Hubicki is back for Survivor's all-star 50th season

• The robotics professor welcomed his first child just weeks before leaving for filming, and he doesn't plan to share the news with his fellow cast members

• "I have to make this mean something for him," he tells PEOPLE

Christian Hubicki is startingSurvivor's 50th season with a secret.

The robotics professor at Florida State University, who won over fans as the "ultimate David" on the show's David vs. Goliath-themed season that aired in 2018, welcomed a baby boy with his wife, Emily, about six weeks before going to Fiji to filmSurvivor's milestone season.

"It can be tough, but he's a secret that I have right here," patting his heart as he speaks with PEOPLE on location in Fiji just beforeSurvivorbegan filming season 50 in June. "He's my reminder, one, not to mess it up, but number two, it's just something I have to fight for that people don't know I have."

When asked if he had any plans to share his news with fellow cast members, Christian replies, "Not anytime soon, that's for sure."

Ahead of leaving to film, Christian says he recorded himself reading baby books and got a bed that moves to soothe babies for better sleep.

"But it's not a replacement for being there to help," he adds. "I have to make this mean something for him."

Christian talked about becoming a father on an August 2025 episode ofRob Has a Podcast, saying, "It's wonderful. I love it. And it really forced me, finally, to have a set schedule in my life. It really adds a lot of structure and also tears down a lot of structure to your life. Things that you planned on doing at a particular time, it's like, 'Nope, nope, nope. Baby needs attention.' "

He added that he's enjoying experiencing all the "firsts," including his son's first bath.

"I was always afraid, like, 'What's he gonna respond to the bath?' Like, you know, being in the water, and he came out, and he had this adorable little face as if he just experienced something beautiful for the first time," Christian said on the podcast. "And I'm like, 'Oh, I'll never forget that.' "

"And my photo roll has never been longer on my camera, that's for sure," he added.

Christian was a standout on the 37th season ofSurvivor, memorably solving a puzzle in record time during the premiere episode (turns out, he developed an algorithm for solving slide puzzles as an undergrad) and winning an endurance-based immunity challenge that lasted five and a half hours (during which, Christian rambled about everything from exoskeleton research to reuben sandwiches).

However, he was also targeted as a major threat — something Christian credits partially to Mike White, the creator ofThe White Lotuson HBO, with whom he competed alongside in David vs. Goliath and is also back for season 50.

"Mike White understood that this is a story first, and that the story of my season was David vs. Goliath," Christian tells PEOPLE. "He said, 'Christian is the ultimate David. If you let him get to the end, he will slay Goliath and win.' Very simple story. Everyone bought it."

This time around, Christian is taking that philosophy with him — but making it work in his favor.

"You could callSurvivora social game. I like to think of it as a political game. You could talk about it as a game of votes, as a game of relationships, all these things. Those are all true, but incomplete," he says. "Survivoris narrative warfare. It's a war for the best story."

Survivor's 50th season premieres on Wednesday, Feb. 25, on CBS.

NEED TO KNOW

• In February, Mike Stoller attended the Los Angeles premiere of EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert

• Director Baz Luhrmann, John Stamos, Austin Butler, Bob Odenkirk, Tallulah Willis and Scout Willis were also present

• During the event, the 92-year-old songwriter and producer talked to PEOPLE about his favorite memory of working with Elvis Presley

Iconic songwriter and producer Mike Stoller remains closely tied to one of music's most enduring legacies. During the Los Angeles premiere ofEPiC: Elvis Presley in Concerton Feb. 18, 2026, the 92-year-old paused to reflect on the artist who helped define a generation.

Having worked withElvis Presleyduring some of his most productive studio years, Stoller witnessed firsthand the singer's discipline and drive. "He had great strength, had great stamina, and he could keep going and going," Stoller tells PEOPLE exclusively.

As one half of the influential songwriting and producing partnership with the late Jerry Leiber, Stoller helped craft some of Presley's most memorable recordings. The duo wrote 1957's "Jailhouse Rock" and 1952's "Hound Dog," two songs that became central to Presley's catalog and helped solidify his mainstream appeal.

Beyond their work with Presley, Leiber and Stoller also penned Ben E. King's iconic "Stand By Me," a 1961 track that continues to resonate with audiences and is still covered by artists across genres today.

While speaking to PEOPLE, Stoller revealed that one of his favorite memories with Presley comes from the recording session for "Jailhouse Rock." In April 1957, he and Leiber stepped in to guide the session and quickly found their rhythm with the King of Rock 'n' Roll.

"We were working on 'Jailhouse Rock' and we got it going and we got to take nine," Stoller recalls. "At take nine, we said, 'Oh, Elvis, absolutely.' He said, 'No, no. I can do it better.' We got up to take 38 or something. He said, 'Well, let me hear that take you guys liked.' We played take nine and he said, 'You're right. That's a good one.' "

The moment, Stoller suggests, captured Presley's perfectionism. Even when those in the control room were satisfied, Presley pushed himself through dozens of takes before ultimately agreeing with his collaborators.

EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concertspotlighted the next chapter in preserving Presley's story for modern audiences. The 2025 documentary is directed by Baz Luhrmann and serves as a follow-up to his 2022biographical film,Elvis. The evening underscored how Presley's story continues to evolve onscreen decades after his passing.

For Stoller, the event promptedmemories of seeing Presley, who died at age 42 in 1977, live onstageduring his Las Vegas residency at the International Hotel in 1969. Although the that defining chapter of Presley's career was marked by elaborate staging and a larger-than-life presentation, Stoller still remembers the unforgettable personal touches.

"I saw him a few times [in Vegas]. I hadn't worked with him for a while. But I brought my wife out to meet [Presley] and he said, 'Mighty glad to meet you, ma'am,' " Stoller tells PEOPLE. "But it was interesting. He was also doing a take on himself in the Vegas situation. But I knew him before that. Worked with him earlier. In a way, it was almost fun to see him do a take on himself."

In and out of court, more than half of the amendments enshrined in the Bill of Rights are being fought over as a direct result of President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota.

In his second term, Trump and his administration have been aggressive in stretching the boundaries of political conventions, resulting ina number of court challenges. Trump's push to eliminate birthright citizenship, freeze federal funds and bypass Congress through executive orders have tested the separation of powers.

The Twin Cities campaign, though, has been a flashpoint, with fights over at least six — the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and 10th — of the first 10 amendments. Conservative-leaning scholars see both lawyers and judges overstepping their bounds in fiery filings and opinions, while liberal-leaning counterparts see a notable disregard by the Trump administration for Bill of Rights provisions.

"You could teach a great constitutional law seminar about the Bill of Rights just through the violations that have taken place in Minneapolis alone," said Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., a former constitutional law professor. "There have been massive violations of the civil rights of minority groups in the past, like Native Americans and African Americans and Asian Americans, but it is hard to sum up any historical analogy to the systematic violation of all of the fundamental constitutional rights of the people in such a comprehensive and indiscriminate way."

Randy Barnett, director of the Georgetown Center for the Constitution, said he saw the battle over the Bill of Rights in Minneapolis as "unprecedented" for how many far-fetched claims he believes advocates have made that have gained traction with district court judges.

"As a Ninth Amendment scholar, I'm a little disappointed that this provision has yet to be thrown against the wall to see if it sticks," joked Barnett, who represented the National Federation of Independent Businesses in its constitutional challenge to the Affordable Care Act.

Abigail Jackson, a White House spokesperson, said the administration "is working to lawfully deliver on President Trump's mandate to enforce federal immigration law and carry out the largest mass deportation campaign of criminal illegal aliens in history."

"The real story should be the unrelenting unlawful rulings issued by lower court judges pushing their own policy agenda," she continued. "President Trump will not waver when implementing the agenda he was elected on."

The Fourth, Fifth and 10th Amendments

In court, the Fourth, Fifth and 10th amendments have been core to legal battles over specific immigration enforcement actions.

John Yoo, who served in President George W. Bush's Justice Department, said many of the constitutional fights are taking place because of how unsettled areas of immigration law are.

"There's very few Supreme Court cases about it, and very few about the responsibility of the federal and state government," said Yoo, a strong advocate for presidential power who helped author the "torture memos" on interrogation after the Sept. 11 attacks. "So whenever you have that kind of uncertainty, that's where people step in — lower courts, litigants — and just start getting creative."

Yoo added that the contests over the Fourth Amendment might be the most significant as the space where individual liberties may most be at stake. That amendment protects individuals from unreasonable searches and seizures and requires the federal government to obtain warrants based on probable cause to enter a person's home. It has been tested under a Trump administration policy that allows Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to enter people's homes with administrative warrants issued by the executive branch, instead of a judge.

The question over the use of administrative warrants has already arisen in court. Fred Biery, a federal judge in Texas who was appointed by President Bill Clinton, accused the Trump administration of ignoring the Fourth Amendmentin a ruling last monthordering the release of 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, an asylum-seeker from Ecuador, from an immigration detention center in Texas. The two have since returned home to Minneapolis.

Biery said the administration was treating the Fourth Amendment like a "pesky inconvenience."

"Civics lesson to the government: Administrative warrants issued by the executive branch to itself do not pass probable cause muster," Biery wrote. "That is called the fox guarding the henhouse. The Constitution requires an independent judicial officer."

In that same opinion,Biery also pointed to the Fifth Amendment, which provides for due process rights. The judge wrote that the father and son "seek nothing more than some modicum of due process and the rule of law."

Another Clinton-appointed federal judge, Michael J. Davis in Minnesota —who has handleda number of petitions stemming from Operation Metro Surge — wrote last month of "an undeniable move by the Government in the past month to defy court orders or at least to stretch the legal process to the breaking point in an attempt to deny noncitizens their due process rights."

Moderate Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., a frequent Trump critic who is not seeking re-election this year, said he's confident the courts will step in to halt unconstitutional activity related to Minneapolis and ICE.

"I think the warrants will lose in court," Bacon said. "In the end, I think the courts will be an effective backstop. But I don't know why they want to push the envelope. I wouldn't do it, but in the end I think our Constitution will be secured and we got a good court that will do it. The problem is it just takes awhile to make that happen."

The 10th Amendment, meanwhile, was the basis for Minnesota officials to argue for a temporary restraining order to block the administration from carrying out Operation Metro Surge. That amendment reserves powers not explicitly delegated to the federal government — or prohibited to the states — to the states or citizens at large. Minnesota officials alleged that the operation was aimed at forcing change to state immigration policies, running afoul of the amendment.

Katherine Menendez, a federal judge in Minnesota appointed by President Joe Biden, rejected the request from Minnesota officials,writing last month that their argumentswere not strong enough to justify blocking the administration.

The First Amendment

First Amendment rights have most notablyarisen in the charging of journalist Don Lemon. The former CNN anchor last month followed protesters into a Minnesota church and livestreamed a demonstration against a pastor who protesters claimed worked for ICE. Lemon, who has pleaded not guilty to all charges he faces, was arrested last month and charged alongside eight co-defendants involved in the church protest.

Lemon and free speech advocates have argued his conduct is protected by the First Amendment. He was charged with conspiracy against the rights of religious freedom at a place of worship and injuring, intimidating and interfering with the exercise of the right of religious freedom at a place of worship.

"I wanted to say this isn't just about me. This is about all journalists, especially in the United States," Lemon said outside court in Minnesota last week. "For more than 30 years, I've been a journalist, and the power and protection of the First Amendment has been the underpinning of my work."

Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., said he's considered Lemon's case but hasn't arrived at a conclusion about whether his arrest and prosecution were justified.

"If there is a disruption of a church service and you have someone who is aware of it, comes in with it, and then actually is in the middle of asking questions of individuals while their church service is being disrupted, are they exercising First Amendment rights? Or are they violating somebody else's First Amendment rights to freedom of religion?" Rounds asked. "I don't know the answer to that, but once again, a question of fact but also a question for the courts."

Separately,a class action lawsuitfiled by the American Civil Liberties Union against the Department of Homeland Security alleges that DHS agents violated the First Amendment rights of protesters in Minnesota. (It isincredibly difficultto win damages by suing individual federal agents for constitutional violations.)

The Second Amendment

Tom Homan, the Trump administration official who took over leadership of the immigration crackdown in Minnesota, dubbed Operation Metro Surge,announced earlier this monththat it would be winding down. DHS said this month that 4,000 people had been arrested since the operation began in November. Immigration authorities shot and killed two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, both 37 years old, in separate confrontations.

Those killings, particularly Pretti's, have had Second Amendment implications. After Pretti's death last month, the president and administration officials criticized the ICU nurse for carrying a concealed handgun — which he was legally permitted to do — when he approached federal law enforcement before being shot.Eyewitness videos showedfederal agents apparently discovering and removing the gun during that altercation, and they did not appear to show Pretti holding the weapon during the altercation.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said she didn't "know of any peaceful protester that shows up with a gun and ammunition rather than a sign."

The sentiment, shared by other administration officials, sparked a riftwith some gun-rights advocates. At the time, the White House pointed to comments made by Border Patrol official Gregory Bovino in an interview with CNN where he said: "We respect Second Amendment rights, but those rights don't count when you riot and assault, delay, obstruct and impede law enforcement officers."

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., whose family has posed with guns in its Christmas photo, said he has major objections to top Trump officials' comments about restricting gun rights.

"The administration is just bungling all of the statements on the Second Amendment," said Massie, who has clashed with Trump and has drawn a Trump-endorsed primary opponent. "Carrying a firearm to a protest is not a death sentence — it's a constitutional right."

Other conservatives took issue with the remarks following Pretti's shooting, too.

"Yes, you absolutely can carry at a protest. Anyone who tells you otherwise is an anti-2A [Second Amendment] statist," Dana Loesch, a conservative radio and TV host,wrote on X, adding, however, that people "cannot interrupt a federal op while armed."

The Third Amendment

Then, there's the rarely cited Third Amendment, which was briefly the subject of debate in Minneapolis, too. That amendment prohibits the government from forcing Americans to house soldiers without their consent.It arosewhen staff at aMinneapolis hotel apparentlycanceled room reservations for ICE agents — an episode DHShighlighted.

Beth Colgan, a law professor at UCLA, acknowledged this amendment comes up so rarely that it's essentially become "a trivia question as 'What is the Third Amendment?'"

Looking at the constitutional fights stemming from the Twin Cities in totality, Colgan said it's unclear what the long-term impact will be.

"I think that's something people should be very worried about," she said.

As for whether the battles were anything out of the ordinary, Erwin Chemerinsky, the dean of the University of California, Berkeley, law school, said they assuredly were.

"It is unusual," said Chemerinsky, who worked in the Department of Justice during the Carter administration, "for one set of government actions to clearly violate so many provisions of the Constitution."
