King Charles Jabs Trump, Calls for Unity After Shooting

0:00It's April 29. You're listening to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, AI-powered pop-culture updates. I'm Cory with the story. King Charles dropped a slick jab at Donald Trump during a White House Day dinner, riffing on the president's old line about Europe speaking German. Without American help, the king flipped it, saying if not for Britain, folks here might be chatting in French instead. Just hours before, Charles made history as only the second British monarch to speak to the United States Congress right after his late mother queen, Elizabeth. He took a moment in that address to call out the weekend shooting at the White House Correspondence Dinner, where a secret service agent got hit. And a 31-year-old suspect named Cole Tomas Allen now faces charges for trying to assassinate the president. Charles laid down a firm line against the violence, stressing it, won't break democracy, and that both nations stand together to protect people and honor those risking their lives daily.
