The man suspected of opening fire at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner on Saturday night worked as a teacher and video game developer from Southern California, according to public records.
Cole Tomas Allen, 31, who lives in the Los Angeles suburb of Torrance, has been identified by law enforcement as the armed man subdued near the dinner where President Trump and other officials had gathered, two sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
Allen donated $25 to Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign in October 2024, according to Federal Election Commission records.

I was at a gathering when I hear of it. Most of the people there thought it was another stunt.

My distrust of this man makes me think it’s another attempt to win sympathy and build back his support, from the damage done through war and Epstein

The other side will say it is not a stunt but proof that the guy "is truly ordained by God" neither will face reality

I wonder what resumed Correspondents' Dinner will be like -- tempered jokes and remarks?
