Trump Targeted in White House Shooting
Description
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche confirms President Trump and top officials were the main targets in Saturdays White House Correspondents Dinner shooting. Cole Tomas Allen, armed with a shotgun, handgun, and knives, was tackled by Secret Service before causing more harm. This is at least the fifth major security breach or assassination attempt on Trump since 2024. Allen, a California native with a grudge against Trump admin folks and Christians, faces preliminary charges but is expected to face more as investigations continue. The pattern of close calls began in 2024, with incidents at rallies and Mar-a-Lago, leading to six Secret Service agents being suspended after the Butler incident. Trumps team remains vigilant amidst this string of close calls.
