Shots rang out at the White House Correspondents Association dinner on April 25th, right outside the ballroom at the Washington Hilton. White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller was there with his pregnant wife Katie, and footage captured him lifting her off the floor, and shielding her as they evacuated. Katie Miller set the record straight on Fox News Monday night, pushing back on claims that Stephen used her as a human shield. She said he was protecting her and their unborn fourth child, following advice from their security detail to move her ahead through the chaos. Social media blew up with photos, showing Stephen's hand in an awkward spot during the escape, sparking all kinds of jokes. Katie explained he shifted it up to avoid her belly, where the baby was, and they both laughed it off later amid the stress. The alleged shooter, 31-year-old Cole Thomas Allen, got nabbed nearby with a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun, a 38-calibre, semi-automatic pistol, and three knives.
