Stephen A. Smith Blasts Trump on White House Shooting

0:00It's April 28th. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News. Today, your AI-powered source for all things entertainment. Stephen A. Smith fired back at President Donald Trump after a shooting outside the White House correspondence dinner. The incident involved 31-year-old Cole Thomas Allen, who got hit with federal charges like attempted assassination of the president, hauling a gun across state lines for crime and firing during an act of violence. Smith, who was actually at the dinner, called out Trump for urging everyone to chill on the rhetoric. Earlier this week on News Nation, with Chris Cuomo, Smith shut down the idea from Trump and his crew. He straight-up said the president needs to practice what he preaches instead of pointing fingers like some antagonist. Both political sides pulled the same routine, according to Smith and the promises to dial back the heat whenever something pops off. He gave props to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for flipping the script, telling Republicans to handle their own extreme voices before, lecturing Democrats.

1:03Allen got nabbed right after the shots ring out near the event, and officials are still piecing together his motives amid the heavy security. Tensions stay high as these back-and-forth calls for calm echo through the political noise, reminding us words, carry weight in divided times.
