An armed man was arrested at President Donald Trump's golf course in Los Angeles two days before the US leader's visit on Tuesday, according to the local sheriff's office. The suspect, identified as 38-year-old Jeanine John Taele from nearby Downey, California, was arrested on Sunday afternoon at the golf course in Rancho Palos Verdes. Plainclothes federal agents observed him taking photographs and videos, appearing to monitor security-planning activities.

During his detention, deputies recovered a 16-round magazine containing hollow-point ammunition from Taele's pants pocket. A subsequent search of his vehicle uncovered a loaded pistol and an additional loaded magazine with hollow-point ammunition. Investigators from the sheriff's department and the FBI's counterterrorism unit searched Taele's home, where they found an assault-style rifle, a pistol, a bulletproof vest, high-capacity magazines, ammunition, two radios, and multiple notebooks with concerning statements.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office will decide whether to file charges after investigators presented the case on Tuesday morning. Trump has faced multiple assassination attempts since launching his most recent presidential campaign, including incidents in Pennsylvania, Florida, and Washington, DC.

Trump arrived by helicopter at the golf club Tuesday evening to attend a fundraising dinner hosted by the Republican National Committee. His visit to his California golf club is closed to the press. The president is expected to tout his record and raise campaign funds for the upcoming midterm elections, in which his Republican party is trying to maintain its grip on the US Congress.

Hours before Trump's arrival, California Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat widely expected to run for president in 2028, urged Trump to release long-delayed federal reconstruction funding for communities devastated by the Los Angeles wildfires. Newsom emphasized that the issue should transcend politics and that Trump should honor his pledge to help affected families.
