16:51Now PlayingThe attempted assassination involving Cole Thomas Allen has taken a disturbing turn, with new details revealing a calculated and politically motivated plot targeting President Trump and his administration.
Allen, a 31-year-old engineer from California with a seemingly normal background, allegedly spent weeks planning an attack at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, booking a hotel early and studying security vulnerabilities.
Authorities believe his intent was not just to target Trump, but to carry out a mass-casualty attack against top officials gathered in one location.
A manifesto sent shortly before the shooting reveals deeply anti-Trump beliefs, portraying the president as a “king” figure and framing the attack as an attempt to “change history.”
In the writings, Allen reportedly mocked security weaknesses and suggested the attack could have been far worse if coordinated with others, raising serious national security concerns.
Investigators say he brought multiple firearms from California, assembled a weapon inside the hotel, and opened fire at a Secret Service checkpoint before being subdued.
A Secret Service officer was shot but survived due to a protective vest, allowing agents time to evacuate Trump and others safely.
Early evidence suggests Allen had been radicalized over time, expressing extreme political views and discussing taking action prior to the attack.
Neighbors described him as quiet and unassuming, highlighting a pattern seen in other lone-wolf attackers who operate under the radar.
He now faces multiple federal charges, with more expected, including possible attempted assassination charges that could result in life in prison.
Despite the seriousness of the event, some public figures have pushed conspiracy theories, claiming the attack was staged, drawing backlash and criticism.
In a separate but related controversy, a Wisconsin brewery owner faced outrage after joking online about the assassination attempt and suggesting a “free beer day” if Trump had been killed.
The incident raises broader concerns about political extremism, security failures, and the growing normalization of violent rhetoric in public discourse.
