Friendly Federal Assassin Strikes at White House

0:00On April 26th, a 31-year-old man named Cole Allen opened fire outside the White House correspondence dinner at a Washington hotel on Saturday night. He called himself the friendly federal assassin in a manifesto he sent to family just 10 minutes before the shots rang out. The writing laid out his rage against Trump administration officials, whom he targeted as top priorities. In the document, Allen justified his actions by claiming turning the other cheek only applied to personal oppression, not others. He chose buckshot over slugs to cut down on wall penetration and spare bystanders, though he saw most attendees as complicit for showing up. Guests inside the ballroom hit the deck when the gunfire erupted nearby, turning the high-profile gala into chaos. President Trump weighed in Sunday morning on Fox, saying the shooter harbored deep hatred possibly tied to anti-Christian views and had major, personal issues. Allen's video caught Allen in all black, sprinting past security with a shotgun, handgun,
