President Trump calls in to Fox News following the assassination attempt last night at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner. WATCH:
Details are surfacing about Cole Tomas Allen, the 31-year-old California schoolteacher who tried to gain entry to the venue in order to assassinate President Trump and/or cabinet members in attendance.
A manifesto was sent to relatives prior to the effort saying the gunman wanted to target administration officials. Investigators also found extensive anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric across his social media accounts. According to reports [AP Newswire], Allen’s brother alerted New London Police Department after receiving the alleged manifesto before the incident.
U.S. Secret Service and Montgomery County Police Department later interviewed Allen’s sister, Avriana Allen, at the family home in Rockville. Key points from the interview: She said her brother often made radical statements and spoke about doing “something” to fix today’s world. She confirmed he bought 2 handguns and a shotgun from Cap Tactical Firearms and stored them at their parents’ home reportedly without their knowledge.
Additionally, Cole Tomas Allen regularly trained with firearms at shooting ranges. He was reportedly linked to a group called “The Wide Awakes.” and he attended a “No Kings” protest in California.


“CapCut AI” in top left corner of video.
The AI enhanced the original poor quality video President Trump posted.
so Johneb18 are you saying it is AI and not to be believed?
It was not a fast draw or even a good (technically correct) draw. UGH! so much is disturbing about that video.
Ugh.
Once again we have the Lord Himself to thank, for being President Trump’s protector.
No better protector. Thanks be to God!
Yes. Something is fudged in that X video. Watch the appearance and disappearance of the white square and the framed cut lines.
I want to see the other camera views. The FBI already hid Kirk pre-shot videos for some reason.
Did the SS agent get hit with friendly fire?
good question from the way the one uniform ran up behind SS Agent with gun in firing position.
No wonder that guy wasn’t shot. The way he ran through that room, he created so many cross fire situations, the protection crew really couldn’t shoot without shooting each other.
But that’s also why “the room is there.” You have to run all the way through it. People positioned at one end of the room are running after you while the others whom you haven’t reached yet are watching you come. “Shooting at you” is only one way to stop you. But you will be running towards an area where you can, if necessary, reliably be shot without endangering other agents in pursuit. It didn’t come to that. He was tackled and cuffed.
It’s too soon to tell whether the agent who was shot was, in fact, shot by the assailant. It will take analysis of video, likely, to determine that. As well as eyewitness interviews. Obviously, for a few seconds there were lots of bullets flying around.
Security is way too lacking. What if instead of a soy nut it had been a trained assault team with automation weapons?
Damn lucky the lunatic didn’t have a bomb to detonate! Again, thanks be to God.
SS didn’t vet any of the guests staying in the hotel, or didn’t shut down the hotel, plus SS needed multiple parameters.
We’re talking about protecting the President of the United States!
I refuse to pretend that the SS are incompetent and the Demoncrats don’t have their dirty fingerprints training useful idiots to try to assassinate President Trump.
And the VP and cabinet. That place should have been Fort Knox.
Crossfire situation ?
The individual in the lower left had ample time to stop that guy and tackle him.
Watching this very video last night on the big screen. The officer that drew first also appeared to fire the weapon two times.
How he/she missed the nut job AND his/her fellow law enforcement on the opposite side of the nut job is a mystery to me.
Devine intervention is REAL.
Just an aside, I do not see the muzzle flash in this version….
It ain’t easy to hit a running man from an angle . . .
What is shocking to me is that no one seemed to be observing the entrance when he charged through!
For an event with this many cabinet members, the VP and President, there should be two people stationed observing the entrance. Hopefully that would ensure at least one pair of eyes on the entry.
Why only have one stopping point? Shouldn’t it be at least two, one after the other, in case some one does breach an entry but would be stopped by the second?
The ease he gained access only encourages further attempts.
gunman is not carrying a long gun in this video. A running man in that situation — why didnt SSAgent tackle him? these guys in the lobby were never involved — the shooting must have been over before they rallied.
Yes. No weapon visible. But slow down the video and look what the other agents are doing. They seem to have somebody already face down on the floor in the upper mid-part of the screen. Feet are sticking out from where those agents are kneeling or squatting.
AI, or a training video?
Oh, now I watched it slo-mo to the end when I see the runner appear at the entrance for another dash. The agents are now in their end of event positions, the guy who was detained on the floor is utterly ignored, and the runner ran around the floor and came back for another dash?
This isn’t AI cleaning up a video, it’s a complete fabrication.
The cop at the top drew before the Secret Service agent did! So much for the slow ‘fast” drawing SS agent!! I have said here repeatedly President Trump needs to hire his own private security and not rely on the DEI hired agents of the Secret Service!! Former Navy Seals/Special Ops in private security practice would provide much better protection and security! Just do it President Trump!!! JMO
13/65
13% of the population
65% of the crime
Also I read the if you take black gun crime out of the statistics the US becomes one of the top five safest countries in the world.
Uh so your blaming black men? OMG
The other two who tried to assassinate President Trump were white.
All three were brainwashed leftist anarchists.
Our country would be safe if it wasn’t for the evil Demoncrat party.
Actually, when you focus on Black males between the ages of 12 and 40 it’s more like 5% of the population commits 65% of the crime!
Sundance, would you post that video from X that you posted last night of the woman that was volunteering for the event and saw him assemble his gun in the area where the bar carts were? Thank you!
Here is a MSN article with Her Quoted in it.

Do the idiots at MSLSD know what a rifle is?

Thank you, Marc!
she is not very believable in my opinion.
CURIOUS THING –
IF You Try to Find
” The witness, Helen Mabus, a volunteer working the event who said she is from Harrisburg, Pa.,… ”
Depending on the Database Search You Use – DEPENDS on IF You can Locate Her
Let’s be clear…
The Congress is ENABLING lawlessness by not passing the Save Act, by not reigning in the inferior courts, by not codifying Executive Orders, by not updating Tariff laws, and on and on.
There must be a bible verse somewhere that damns these types of people.
Let’s be real. The Democrats have shut down funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which houses the US Secret Service.
It is time for the AG and the DOJ to start targeting politicians, members of Congress, and influential media figures who spew hate and wish harm to the president and his family.
Don’t know of the Bible verse but John and Jesus used the term ‘nest of vipers’ which seem appropriate.
“I want to live to make this country great. That’s why I want to live.”
President Donald John Trump, the most consequential President this Republic has ever had.
Fearless, indefatigable warrior who knows he will forever be in the crosshairs of madmen and has accepted it as the price he is willing to pay for his mission.
I watched him intently last night and saw a man completely at peace with this decision, come what may.
God bless and continue to cover him with His divine protection 🙏🏻
Amen 🙏
‘Really, its you they are after, I just stand in the way’….
And
per AI “Nevertheless, I take all of these slings and arrows gladly for you,” during a speech on October 13, 2016″.
Torture all the registered democrat CA teachers until you find all the co-conspirators.
Or send them to CECOT in El Salvador.
Better yet get rid of teacher’s unions and federal government controlled education all together. We need privately run education and allow parents their God given right to choose who and where they want their children educated.
Can Sis be charged based on foreknowledge of radicalized statements/threats and firearms purchase and ownership?
Are they going to label him “White” like they did to George Zimmerman?
The same media calling Trump a national threat and a nazi is now somehow shocked one of their fans believed them.
You can bet that Allen’s team of Harvard defense attorneys from Chicago will be interviewed tonight on 60 Minutes and describe his horrible battle with mental illness, depression and demonic voices!
Change my mind! 😉
It worked for Hinkley.
It seems to work for everyone lately! It’s a Get Out of Jail Free card.
I can’t, “It’s the Chicago Way”….
Just like the one who recently assassinated that young college student.
I always go back to Richard Speck and John Wayne Gacy…why did one get the needle and the other did not?
And that we need more federal funding to prevent this from happening again
Part time tutor to students to prepare for SAT and ACT –worked for C2 Education which is a private franchise–not what I would call a school teacher.
…and what was the full time job or contact income? You don’t live in Torrance, CA on a part time tutor salary IMHO.
He lived with his parents. Just another liberal turd who couldn’t hack it in the real world after being gifted a $400,000 degree from one of the top engineering universities in the world.
My daughter graduated from Cal Tech with a mechanical engineering degree in 2018. She said she might have been in some classes with Cole Allen but does not remember him.
I’m sure Cal Tech is thrilled that this TDS-addled idiot chose to throw away his Cal Tech education like that. What a waste.
The sister reporting he stored the weapons at his parents Torrence home, with out their knowledge. How did she know? Why did she know? And when were they stored?
Now, begging further questions…about the sister.
I don’t have brothers and sisters so I cannot answer this one…but do adult siblings always share their personal data about buying guns and or practice with them? I know my own kids don’t share that with their sibs…
How did the sister know he bought some weapons? How did she know he trained at some ranges? Where were the ranges located? — The link enclosed mentions the CA location weapons were purchased, legally, so what kind of rules does CA have for going to a gun range, for practice?…now about the guns…
Did he bring them from CA? As in legally transporting them over a variety of state lines that might have strict laws on the movement/transport of weapons?
No wonder we have been told more charges are possible…
If they were stored in CA how did they get to DC? and what are the CA rules for purchasing weapons?
Exactly. And am wondering how close the brother and sister are….I think it will be a long time before he gets to trial.
I read somewhere that he had travelled by train, to the east coast. That’s a lot of state lines to cross with weapons…not an expert but I believe each state has laws/rules that must be followed individually, for the transport of weapons. At least that is what Illinois tells me…
It would depend I guess but if the sister knew he was storing the weapons at his parents house
why didn;t SHE tell her parents.It is their house especially recently if kneshe w he was talking
crazy talk why would she not let her parents know?
Manifesto is such a 1960s Communist word! 🤔 So here it is…
“Administration officials (not including Mr. Patel): they are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest
Secret Service: they are targets only if necessary, and to be incapacitated non-lethally if possible (aka, I hope they’re wearing body armor because center mass with shotguns messes up people who aren’t
Hotel Security: not targets if at all possible (aka unless they shoot at me)
Capitol Police: same as Hotel Security
National Guard: same as Hotel Security
Hotel Employees: not targets at all
Guests: not targets at all
In order to minimize casualties I will also be using buckshot rather than slugs (less penetration through walls)
I would still go through most everyone here to get to the targets if it were absolutely necessary (on the basis that most people chose to attend a speech by a pedophile, rapist, and traitor, and are thus complicit) but I really hope it doesn’t come to that.
The manifesto also said:
And I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.
(Well, to be completely honest, I was no longer willing a long time ago, but this is the first real opportunity I’ve had to do something.”
He added that he was using BUCKSHOT to minimize bodily harm???? Huh! 🤔
FYI: I’m not going to give any credence to accounts of “what his ‘manifesto’ actually said,” unless and until it is revealed by official sources. “Suspicious and skeptical cat.™”
It’s pretty detailed. I just wanted to focus on the guy’s targets.
He looks mulatto?
In any event, this guy, 1.) Lived a decent middle class lifestyle; 2.) Was extremely well educated and likely benefitted from student aide programs; 3.) Had a great job – probably a certain amount of disposable income.
Luckily ,the shooting happened before President DJT gave his 30 minute speech and likely condemnation of most of the press attendees at the WHCD.
The press would of falsely blamed the shooting on his rhetoric included in the speech.
Pray and help others
His mother White. Looks exactly like a Lib!
There’s been something wrong with him for a long time. You don’t see people with his degrees from Cal Tech no less working at a tutoring center.
Exactly. He was handed a free education, went to work as an ME for one year, likely washed out and ended up as a part time tutor working in a strip mall. No doubt angry that his free ride ended and he was actually expected to be competent at his job and work hard to earn a living.
Nobody say most young people these days are delusional.
