It's April 27, entertainment and celebrity news today starts now, AI-powered and trending. White House Chief of Staff Susie Walsh is under fire after a major security lapse at Saturday night's White House correspondent's dinner. A gunman named Cole Thomas Allen slipped through checkpoints and shot a secret service agent who luckily wore a bulletproof vest and got released from, the hospital with minor injuries. Walsh, who oversees the secret service, called an emergency meeting with him and the department of Homeland Security right away. She's pushing for tighter security at all future events with President Trump in order to four review of what went wrong at the dinner. Critics are piling on, saying this was an epic fail for what should be the world's tightest perimeter. Sources whisper her job could be a risk, especially since she kept secret service director Sean Kern after Trump promoted him last year. Retired agent Rich Starr-Poly blasted Kern for not showing up at the event or the press conference, calling him disengaged.
Trump himself labeled the shooter a pretty sick guy. Now, Walsh is scrambling to fix these holes before the next big event, making sure nothing like this slips through again.
