White House Correspondents' Dinner.shooter had a manifesto

In a conversation with Fox News' Maria Bartiromo, President Trump praised the "unified" response of guests and law enforcement after a gunman opened fire at the Washington Hilton, injuring a Secret Service agent and forcing the evacuation of the entire Cabinet during the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

The suspect in the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting told law enforcement after his arrest Saturday night that he intended to target Trump administration officials, senior federal law enforcement sources confirmed to Fox News.

Authorities identified the suspect as 31-year-old scumwafer Cole Allen, of Torrance, Calif. He prepared a manifesto outlining his intent and shared anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric on social media. As the dinner was underway, Allen allegedly rushed a Secret Service checkpoint at the Washington Hilton while armed with multiple weapons and opened fire, striking a Secret Service officer in his ballistic vest. 

Agents returned fire and tackled the shooter to the ground. The suspect and the injured officer were transported to a hospital. The Secret Service agent is expected to recover and the Democrats are expected to find a way to blame Trump.

This incident adds to a growing list of threats against President Donald Trump, including two confirmed assassination attempts and a recent incident involving an armed intruder at Mar-a-Lago.

Overnight, the FBI and local law enforcement secured Allen’s home in Torrance, California. A federal judge in the Central District of California is expected to approve a search warrant, which would allow investigators to search the residence.

The White House said Sunday that Allen’s brother contacted the New London Police Department in Connecticut prior to the shooting. He reported that Allen had sent family members an alleged manifesto outlining his intent to target administration officials.

Officials also said Allen’s social media included anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric. President Trump, speaking on Fox News’ "The Sunday Briefing," described Allen as "a very troubled guy," citing the manifesto. He said that if the White House had the ballroom he wanted, this would have never happened. 

He's probably right.

Allen’s sister, Avriana Allen, told investigators in Rockville, Maryland, that her brother had made increasingly radical statements and often spoke about doing "something" to address issues in the world.

She said he had purchased two handguns and a shotgun, which he stored at their parents’ home without their knowledge, and that he regularly trained at a shooting range.

She also told authorities that Allen was affiliated with a group called "The Wide Awakes" and had attended a "No Kings" protest in California, indicating that in all likelihood, he is a dedicated Democrat.

Investigators believe Allen traveled from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., by train, with a stop in Chicago, according to acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche. He said the investigation is ongoing and that more details are expected as formal charges are filed.

Blanche also noted that while the motive remains under investigation, authorities preliminarily believe Allen was targeting administration officials.

White House Correspondence Dinner: what we know about the shooter

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Cole Tomas Allen (aka Cole Thomas Allen, aka Cole Allen) 31, is from Torrence, California and is, of course, the "suspect" in the shooting incident at the White House Correspondence Dinner at the Washington Hilton, historically remembered as the same hotel where in 1981, then-President Ronald Reagan was the target of an attempted assassination.

Allen was a guest staying at the hotel. He was armed with a shotgun, handgun and several knives when he charged a security checkpoint outside the ballroom where the event was to take place and guests had gathered.

He exchanged gunfire with Secret Service and other law enforcement and fired at least once (some say several times). He struck a Secret Service agent in his bulletproof vest and the agent was hospitalized and expected to recover. There were no other injuries reported. Allen was quickly subdued and taken into custody--he was not shot--and was transported to Howard University Hospital for evaluation.

President Trump, Melania Trump, JD Vance and other officials were immediately evacuated. The President later called the shooter a "lone wolf" and praised the Secret Service.

The dinner will be rescheduled.

Allen, we know, worked as a part-time teacher/tutor at C2 Education, a test-prep and tutoring center in Torrence, CA, where he was named "Teacher of the Month" in December 2024. He has a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Caltech and master's in computer science from California State University-Dominguez Hills (around 2024-2025).

Public records reveal that he donated $25 to a Kamala Harris supporting PAC in October 2024, and although California voting records do not show a party affiliation, it's unlikely that he votes Republican.

Allen appears to have acted alone and the motive is currently being investigated. It's possible that he doesn't like President Trump, but that's only speculation based on his behavior. How he was able to access the area is also being investigated and is probably related to him being a guest of the hotel.

FBI agents have been at his Torrence home.

He is being charged with using a firearm during a crime of violence and assault on a federal officer, but more charges are expected.

New York's East Village voted for Comrade Mamdani by 70%, now suing him

Comrade Mamdani

Leftists sometimes [however rarely] experience the misery that their cherished policies inflict on the rest of us in a direct manner. That's happening right now in the East Village, where they voted in massive numbers for the Marxist Mayor Zohran Mamdani, only to have him decide that they would be among the first to be punished. 

Mamdani’s fellow Twelver Shi’ite, the Ayatollah Khomeini, also allied with the Communists, only to imprison and kill them after he took power. Now Mamdani wants to inflict violent and criminal homeless people on the affluent leftists of the East Village. 

The idea is to demoralize and threaten them until they will support the authoritarian policies that are the heart and center of leftism. Well, it could not happen to a nicer bunch, but they are just toward the beginning of the line. There will be many more victims to come. As H.L. Mencken said in "A Little Book in C Major (1916): "Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."

East Village residents who voted for New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani by a 40-point margin are now suing to stop a building in their neighborhood from becoming a temporary homeless shelter.

The lawsuit, filed with the New York City Supreme Court on Monday, shows hesitation even among Mamdani supporters about the cost of implementing some of his plans.

News of the lawsuit has prompted conservative mockery online, with figures like Sen. Ted Cruz, (R-TX) noting the irony of Mamdani’s supporters turning on the fruits of his administration.

“Oops,” Sen. Ted Cruz said in a post to X.

“No one is more ‘not in my backyard’ than white progressives. This community voted for Mamdani in a landslide but don’t want to live with the consequences,” Michael Henry, a former New York attorney general candidate, wrote on social media.“Not shocked,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) said in a post.

Election District 45, the area that includes East Village, voted for Mamdani in a 70.1% victory over independent candidate Andrew Cuomo, who garnered just 26.0% of the vote. It was one of those "hold your nose and vote" situations with these choices.

Even so, 10 residents joined the Village Organization for the Integrity of Community Engagement (VOICE) in their suit against the city after Mamdani announced plans earlier this year to turn a building at 8 East 3rd Street into a citywide intake shelter to house homeless adult men.

The filing argues the city fast-tracked the process without proper environmental and legal safeguards.

Can I get an Allahu akbar!

And another one bites the dust

The late, not great, Alireza Tangsiri

There have been loads of eliminations by the IDF of senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commanders, Basij leaders, nuclear scientists, heads of the air force, ballistic missile scientists, government spokesmen, and many others. 

Well now, the long list recently got longer by one additional scumcrumpet with the announcement by Israel that it had removed IRGC naval commander, Alireza Tangsiri, from the game of life. Tangsiri was the guy who organized the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and now he is with his virgin Capra aegagrus hircuses.

The IAF strike killed Tangsiri in Bandar Abbas, adjacent to the Strait of Hormuz. The IDF and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed it after an Israeli official informed The Jerusalem Post earlier on Thursday.

Israeli defense sources have confirmed to the New York Post that the strike that killed Tangsiri took place early Thursday morning at 3 a.m. local time. The sources said that a number of Tangsiri’s top naval aides were killed in the same attack.

In a video statement issued on Thursday, the prime minister said Tangsiri had “a great deal of blood on his hands” and was the person “who led the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.” . . . Tangsiri was widely seen as taking an increasingly aggressive stance in recent weeks on Iran’s actions in the Gulf, particularly around the Strait of Hormuz, but now his stance is forever prone.

Last week he threatened retaliation against US facilities in the region, warning civilians and workers to stay away. 

“Our list of targets is updated. Oil facilities associated with America are now on par with American bases and will come under fire with full force,” Tangsiri said at the time, before being blown into fish chum.

Scary stuff, no? Too bad that Admiral Tangsiri couldn’t be around to see how even more of his ships, now amounting to more than 100, and among them 92 percent of Iran’s largest warships, are now at the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

After Israel’s first main attack on Iran on October 26, 2024, when the IDF destroyed almost all of Iran’s air defenses, the Iranians promised a terrible revenge. Like the Monty Python Black Knight's call for retaliation, it never came. 

Then the Iranian regime rolled their shoulders, grabbed their crotches and threatened that if Israel launches any further attack on their country they would “wipe Israel off the face of the earth forever.” All bluster.

Why wait for another attack by Israel? Wasn’t that 12-day aggression by the Jewish state enough to justify an Iranian response that would end the Jewish state’s existence? If Iran was so all-powerful, why did it refrain from responding to that Israeli attack? 

The IRGC has its excuse: according to its version of events, Iran delivered a terrific blow against Israel in that war and has no need to respond further unless of course the Israelis were foolish enough to attack Iran again. Then Iran would not only repeat its previous “victory” but would wipe Israel “off the face of the Earth.” 

Yet another attack came and Am Yisrael Chai, baby. 

And now Alireza Tangsiri, author of yet more threats on behalf of the Islamic Republic of Iran, is dead.

Alireza Tangsiri did his best for his home team, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. He was the naval mastermind who carried out the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, directed maritime attacks on civilian structures and military targets in the Gulf Arab states, and supported the Houthis with intelligence that will be wasted on that group of cretins.

Who’s next on the IDF’s To-Do List?

The crown prince of Iran, Reza Pahlavi, has his own sources of information inside Iran. Many Iranians are fed up with the regime and have been for decades.

They have seen the hundreds of billions of dollars invested in the nuclear program go up in smoke. The tens of billions of dollars that Iran has spent on supporting its proxies with weaponry and money, especially Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, have similarly evanesced as a result of Israeli attack.

Finally, the crushing blow delivered by the IDF to Iran, and then the further damage done by the American bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities at Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan, have so demoralized many members of the IRGC that some of them now want out. Also, not getting paid for their terrorism doesn't help the morale very much either.

They can no longer support a regime that has destroyed the country’s economy, with more than 30 percent of Iranians now living below the poverty line, that crushes peaceful dissent, and has misspent hundreds of billions of dollars both on failing proxies (Hamas, Hezbollah) and on a nuclear program that has just been demolished.

They sense the regime is crumbling and want to get out while there is still time.

Guess who's running for re-election after resigning: un-freaking believable

What follows is stranger, and certainly funnier, than fiction.

Former Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL), who resigned from Congress before she was officially kicked out, is doing something so shameless, so typical of D.C., and I hate to admit it, something quite funny: she is running for re-election to her old seat. 

It creates another headache for Democrats, as Sheila was engulfed in a scandal where she reportedly stole millions in relief aid from FEMA. It was a lengthy investigation by the House Ethics Committee, and it became clear she was done when the most vocal left-wingers on the Hill were calling for her removal (via NOTUS):

Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, the embattled, now-former congresswoman who resigned from Congress this week ahead of potential expulsion, plans to defiantly run for reelection. Cherfilus-McCormick filed on April 17 to run again for her seat, and a campaign aide confirmed to NOTUS she is running — as a Democrat.

Cherfilus-McCormick stepped down from office Tuesday, a half hour before the House Ethics Committee was scheduled to recommend punishment on an array of charges. The panel had previously found her guilty of 25 ethics violations, including allegedly stealing $5 million dollars in federal disaster-aid funds used to bolster her 2021 campaign as well as campaign-finance violations.

The committee had been investigating Cherfilus-McCormick for two years, issuing 58 subpoenas, interviewing 28 witnesses and reviewing over 33,000 documents.

Cherfilus-McCormick also faces criminal charges regarding the federal relief funds she received during the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier this month, a judge granted her a trial-date extension to February 2027.

In the meantime, she is running for the south Florida seat. 

Her resignation left the 20th Congressional District seat vacant and it is unclear when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis plans to fill the vacancy. The Republican-led Legislature is also debating whether to redraw district maps in the state.

Look, only in the swamp does a politician get caught with her hand in the FEMA cookie jar for millions, get chased out by her own side, and immediately decide the voters deserve another shot at her. The Democrats must be thrilled to have this walking ethics indictment on the ballot again. Nothing says "we've learned our lesson" like running the same scandal-plagued candidate right back out there. South Florida is in for quite the show.

Who does she thinks she is anyway; a Somali businesswoman from Minnesota?

There's a new guy actually running Iran and he's an obstacle to peace

Happy-Go-Lucky Ahmad Vahidi

After the US-Israeli airstrikes had shaken the very foundations of Iran’s leadership and left dozens of its top officials dead in the opening phase of the conflict, one figure emerged from the shadows to seize control of the Islamic Republic. This was no moderate reformer or reluctant pragmatist, but a terrorist and opportunist in waiting who had long prepared for such a moment.

Major General Ahmad Vahidi, the happy-go-lucky commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, gathered his inner circle and assumed direction of both the military campaign and the negotiating effort. Analysts noted the shift immediately. As soon as Vahidi, now a spritely 67, and his allies took charge, Iran hardened its position still further. 

Officials refused outright to join peace talks with the United States this week, while Tehran intensified its attacks on vessels attempting to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

Vahidi, long sanctioned by the West and tied to terror attacks in Argentina, embodies the most extreme faction within the regime, so don't let his religious zabiba [A zabiba (Arabic for "raisin") is a dark, hardened callus on the forehead of some Muslims, known as a prayer bump or "devout sign"] make you think otherwise.

He has pushed aside Tehran’s so-called moderates, including those nominally leading negotiations with America. Even if Washington were somehow to extract a deal from Iran’s delegation, that agreement would carry no weight so long as Vahidi and his hardliner scumcrumpets remain the true power behind the throne. And with the gay junior Ayatollah laid up uni-legged, and probably looking like ten miles of bad road, there is nobody else running things for the regime.

Vahidi had commanded Iran’s goose-stepping, Hitler-esque elite Quds Force in the 1990s. In that role he laid the groundwork for Iranian influence across the Middle East before passing the position to the terror mastermind, the late but not forgotten Qasem Soleimani. Together, Vahidi and Soleimani helped create the network of proxies that now stretches from Lebanon to Yemen, most notably the Hezbollah terrorist group. 

Unlike the last two IRGC chiefs, Vahidi moved comfortably between the military and political worlds. He served as defense minister and interior minister under different administrations. Last December the now dead Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei appointed him deputy chief of the IRGC. When Khamenei and former IRGC Chief Mohammad Pakpour were killed in US-Israeli strikes on 28 February, Vahidi rose to the top like a log in a cesspool, if you know what I mean.

The question that now hangs over Tehran is simple: who is really in charge in Iran? 

Following Khamenei’s death, Vahidi championed the late leader’s unimpressive gay son, Mojtaba Khamenei, as successor, despite reports that the old ayatollah had never intended him for the role due to his embarassing sexual taste and less than desired cognitive abilities. 

Mojtaba was injured in the 28 February strikes and has not been seen in public since. Khosro Isfahani, research director for the Washington-based National Union for Democracy an Iran think tank, offered a blunt assessment.

“If Mojtaba is alive, and that is a big if, he is just a sock puppet. He is the first AI-generated supreme leader in human history,” Isfahani told The Post, referencing the fake photos the regime had posted of Mojtaba following his appointment. “He has zero political capital, zero public support, and zero sway over the decision-making. The regime has and will continue attributing statements to him,” Isfahani added.

Vahidi’s grip on the negotiating team became unmistakable when he installed Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, an IRGC veteran and secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, into the delegation earlier this month. Zolghadr’s task, according to the Institute for the Study of War, was to ensure the team followed the IRGC’s hardline instructions. He fulfilled that role with ruthless efficiency. When Foreign Affairs Minister Abbas Araghchi appeared to hint at possible concessions in the first round of talks, Zolghadr promptly reported him.

“Zolghadr sent a complaint to senior IRGC leaders, almost certainly including Vahidi, that Araghchi had surpassed his mandate during the negotiations by expressing flexibility regarding Iran’s support for the Axis of Resistance,” the ISW said of the initial peace talks. “Zolghadr’s anger caused senior leaders in Tehran, including former IRGC Intelligence Organization Chief and long-time member of Mojtaba’s inner circle, Hossein Taeb, to call the negotiating delegation back to Tehran,” the think tank added.

Iran’s delegation has still not returned to Pakistan to resume talks with the United States. The message is clear. Vahidi and his allies, not the diplomats or the figurehead supreme leader, now dictate the course of the Islamic Republic. The regime’s most extreme elements hold the reins, and they show no intention of loosening their grip as they continue to get their butts kicked by US and Israeli forces.

Cincinnati's former white female police chief once was sued by subordinates for alleged discrimination against white male cops

Cincinnati just fired its police chief after a disastrous run marked by skyrocketing crime and tone-deaf leadership.

A termination announcement revealed that Teresa Theetge was "begged" to put more officers on the streets during a crime-riddled summer last year. She was removed from her role as the city's top law enforcement officer on Thursday after only about three years on the job. She previously served as a police officer in Cincinnati for 35 years.

City Manager Sheryl Long made Theetge's termination announcement.

"I recognize Chief Theetge’s more than 35 years of service to the Cincinnati Police Department and to this City. At the same time, after completing this review, it’s become clear that a change in leadership is necessary for the department moving forward," Long said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

In a scathing termination letter, Long blasted Theetge for what she viewed as ineffective leadership and poor communication, including failing to adhere to a summer anti-violence plan."As just one example, you admitted you did not agree with the City’s Summer Safety Plan, which included more police coverage in the urban core, and you admitted that I begged you to fill the police work details called for in the summer plan."

This is the kind of accountability cities desperately need but rarely deliver when progressive experiments in policing go off the rails.

Cincinnati found itself under national scrutiny last August after a viral beatdown in the city's downtown left a woman with neurological damage. In the early-morning hours of July 26, a confrontation outside the LoVe nightclub in the downtown business district led to a horrific beatdown captured on video. The footage spread like wildfire on social media, showing at least two White victims pummeled into the ground by a group of Black suspects. Even after the victims were down, the attackers kept stomping away, leaving one with a possibly life-altering brain injury.

Over the next month, seven people were arrested and charged in connection with the beating. Long also ripped Theetge for two shootings in the Fountain Square area downtown last October, saying she "failed to provide leadership in response to two shootings" in the area that month.

"You further admitted that on October 14 (the day after the second shooting) you chose to go to a play rather than attend a public safety town hall meeting . . . " Long wrote in the termination letter, later adding that Theetge "should not need to be told to attend a public safety meeting . . .  the night after a shooting on Fountain Square."

Priorities like that speak volumes.

Adding to the mess, in May of last year four White male officers filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against Theetge, the city's first female police chief and a woman as white as milk. They accused her of passing them over for promotions and preferred assignments because of their race and sex.

"Defendants’ intentional and discriminatory practices in assigning Lieutenants to preferred assignments has disproportionately favored non-White males and/or females, without legitimate, non-discriminatory justification, thereby denying Plaintiffs equal employment opportunities," the suit says in part.

"The City and Chief Theetge have actively and systemically undertaken efforts to promote, advance, and make promotion and assignment decisions that are preferable to women and minorities, and to the exclusion of white men, including through hiring, diversity initiatives, outreach programs, promotional processes, and other steps that demonstrate both a systemic practice of discrimination against white males, and that there are background circumstances to support the suspicion that the defendant is that unusual employer who discriminates against the majority," the lawsuit also says.

Another blue city learns the hard way that DEI policing and weak leadership produce exactly the chaos you would expect.

Ilhan Omar's un-Islamic winery and what we know

Rep. Ilhan Omar (Squad-MN) claims that her alleged inflated net worth was due to an accounting mistake. If this indeed is the case, then Omar's judgment in who she hires is obviously so poor that she is not qualified to be a member of Congress. But if you believe any average accountant could make such an enormous accounting error, then you need to question your own judgment. It simply doesn't happen to that extent.

Earlier this year, Omar reported a net worth of around $30 million, which brought up the question of possible fraud. Then Nick Shirley investigated a bunch of Somali-led scams highlighting the infamous 'Learing Center' (or Learning Center for you spelling buffs) in Minneapolis. The 'Learing Center' received $1.9 million in 2025 via Minnesota's Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) and there are reports they received around $4 million total over prior years. It was Shirley who exposed the fraud as his investigation into the Somali-led scams brought attention to Omar's financial dealings.

Omar just dropped her latest financial disclosure bombshell, and holy moly, it turns out she and her hubby, [not the brother hubby] former political consultant Tim Mynett, somehow scraped together a net worth somewhere between a modest $6 million and a "whoa, nelly" $30 million by the end of 2024.

Nearly all of that cheddar comes from Mynett’s ownership in his two companies, which were worth a combined grand total of no more than $51,000 at the end of 2023. Lawmakers get to play the fun game of disclosing assets in vague ranges, so the exact size of Omar’s personal jackpot remains a delightful mystery. What we do know is that their net worth exploded by at least 3,500 percent in a single year. Nothing suspicious there, folks. Move along.

This miraculous cash avalanche might create a few awkward moments for the Minnesota Democrat, who spent February whining to Business Insider about a "coordinated right-wing disinformation campaign" that had the audacity to claim she’s worth millions. Omar dismissed any suggestion that she’s sitting on more than a few thousand bucks as "ridiculous" and "categorically false." She even hopped on X to taunt her critics: "maybe try checking my public financial statements and you will see I barely have thousands let alone millions."

Turns out Omar has her better half to thank for rocketing her straight into multimillionaire territory in 2024. Mynett’s California winery eStCru LLC and his venture capital outfit Rose Lake Capital pulled off financial miracles that would make even the most optimistic lottery winner blush. End of 2023? Combined stake worth no more than $51k, bank accounts with less than $700 between them, and the dynamic duo of Mynett and his partner, former DNC adviser Will Hailer, were getting sued by angry investors who claimed they’d been defrauded out of millions.

By the end of 2024? Mynett’s stake in the two firms had magically inflated to between $6 and $30 million, and he and Hailer settled those pesky lawsuits with cold, hard cash. The Washington Free Beacon has the receipts.

Mynett’s various business adventures have been a delightful recurring headache for Omar ever since the two tied the knot back in March 2020. They were both still married to other people when they first crossed paths, of course, but that didn’t stop them from starting up an affair while Mynett was raking in a cool $2.9 million from Omar’s campaign as her political consultant. That arrangement proved short-lived once the public started paying attention to all the cozy financial ties. By the end of 2020, Mynett wisely bailed on political consulting and pivoted with Hailer into the glamorous worlds of wine and venture capital. Because nothing says "fresh start" like leaving one ethically questionable gig for two more.
