UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — White House Shooter's Manifesto: A Call for Accountability. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On April 27th, a 31-year-old guy from California named Cole Thomas Allen tried to crash the White House correspondence dinner on Saturday. With a shotgun, handgun, and knives, aiming straight for President Trump and his cabinet, he got tackled by Secret Service right after firing shots at a checkpoint. One agent took a bullet to his vest, but walked away fine. Allen left a manifesto for his family, railing against depression and basically copying lines you hear from Democratic leaders on social media. White House press secretary Caroline Levitt jumped back on the podium early from maternity leave to call it out. She read off posts from dem lawmakers, hinting at violence against Trump, saying that non-star rhetoric for 11 years radicalized this dude. She pointed fingers at the media too, like Jimmy Kimmel's joke about Melania, and all the Hitler and fascist labels that fire up unstable folks too. Act Trump think that agent personally from the Oval Office, and now Levitt's pushing everyone to own up to how their words fuel this mess.
It's A, wake up call on the edge, we're all skating.
