    An alleged shooter is in custody, and President Donald Trump was
    evacuated, after shots were reportedly fired at the White House Correspondents? Dinner on Saturday night. A Secret Service agent was reportedly shot at, but the individual did not get hurt because of a
    vest, according to Fox News. There are no reported injuries.

    ?Quite an evening in D.C. Secret Service and Law Enforcement did a
    fantastic job,? Trump posted to Truth Social.

    The dinner is now canceled, and White House Correspondent?s Association President Weijia Jiang said that the dinner is canceled and nobody is
    hurt, saying that Trump will hold a press conference around 10 p.m.

    Jiang said the dinner could be rescheduled within 30 days.

    ?They acted quickly and bravely. The shooter has been apprehended, and
    I have recommended that we ?LET THE SHOW GO ON? but, will entirely be
    guided by Law Enforcement. They will make a decision shortly.
    Regardless of that decision, the evening will be much different than
    planned, and we?ll just, plain, have to do it again,? Trump added.

    Secret Service confirmed that they are ?investigating a shooting
    incident near the main magnetometer screening area at the White House Correspondents? Dinner.?

    ?The president and the first lady are safe along all protectees. One individual is in custody. The condition of those involved is not yet
    known, and law enforcement is actively assessing the situation,?Anthony Guglielmi, Secret Service Chief of Communications, stated.

    First Lady Melania Trump and many officials were rushed out quickly by
    law enforcement. The Daily Wire can confirm that high-profile
    individuals, including cabinet officials, were also evacuated out of
    the event, but television cameras still showed people remaining inside
    the ballroom for awhile after the incident. Jiang originally told the
    audience that the dinner was expected to go on.

    Trump was sitting at the table onstage, along with first lady Melania
    Trump and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, among others, when popping
    sounds were heard, according to NewsNation. They were cleared extremely quickly from the table, as some people sitting at the dinner ducked
    under their chairs.

    Many details are still unknown. The Washington Hilton, where the dinner
    was set to take place, is where President Ronald Reagan was shot in
    1981.

    According to this article, the shooter was a teacher (of sorts) and was
    firing a shotgun. How would he get something as big as a shotgun into
    the venue? Mind you, I'm having trouble picturing a shotgun making "pop
    pop" sounds. Don't they have a pretty loud discharge? Maybe the pops
    were the return fire from the USSS. Of course we know very well that
    most journalists have no ability to distinguish one firearm from
    another; to them a derringer and a bazooka are both Glocks!

    As for not going to the Hinckley Hilton any more, isn't that what the
    new ballroom is intended to replace? The Dems are fighting that tooth
    and claw though; it seems like they WANT to keep exposing presidents to assassination attempts (or at least the Republican presidents) ....

    I thought he came in from the parking lot after getting it out of his car trunk and then tried to run through the metal detectors at the security stop-check.

    You may find this video interesting on a professional level. It's an independent media report on events at the Hilton last night with plenty
    of footage.

    I'm not sure if his analysis of how the USSS works is always 100% but I
    think he does a better job than the legacy media.

    I?ve already got friends posting how obviously faked it was.

    They've figured it out. I mean, I routinely would show up to stand post at various events and then have the site agent tell me during the pre-event brief that at a certain point, we're going to stage a fake assassination attempt and let some guy with guns into the venue and we're all expected to play along. Happened all the time and we had no problem participating in a massive crime and cover-up.

    It's easy enough to cover up the news of it being a faked attempt wen
    you have time travel as this guy points out.

    https://x.com/ProudSocialist/status/2048393950789038255

    There is some really weird stuff going on with this staged shooting.

    The shooter?s name is Cole Allen.

    He uploaded a photo wearing an IDF t-shirt to instagram prior to the
    shooting and google searches for his name trended in Israel prior to
    the shooting.

    Now it gets even weirder.

    A man by the name of Henry Martinez made a single post on X in 2023
    that read: ?Cole Allen.?

    And it looks like they knew each other as both Cole Allen and Henry
    Martinez interned at NASA?s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 2014.

    There is no logical way to explain how Henry Martinez would know all
    the way back in 2023 that Cole Allen would do this in 2026 unless Time
    Travel is real and this is Henry?s way of hinting to us that it is
    real.

    You could argue the other way to explain it is this shooting was being
    planned all the way back in 2023 but that was before President Trump
    had won a 2nd term and as crazy as it sounds seems even more
    farfetched than Time Travel. ??

    I remember seeing articles in 2023 declaring Trump a dead duck or a
    has-been or words to that effect; they were sure he'd never be President again. But there were others taking a contrary view and I have to
    imagine that Trump-haters must have talked about what they could do if
    he did get elected again. Discussing their options seems entirely
    plausible although they would have been careful to not be too open or
    detailed about it given the USSS.

    I'm not about to buy time travel as part of a plot though ;-)

    And let's just remember that neither "Cole Allen" nor "Henry Martinez"
    are particularly unique names. Either reference could refer to DIFFERENT people than those implicated in last night's events.

    Good point. I hadn't realized that the ballroom will be limited to
    public events. I thought the White House Correspondents might be deemed
    "close enough" to a public event that the ballroom, once completed,
    might be allowed to be used for that purpose.

    Then there's this:

    Cole Allen interned at NASA in 2014.

    In 2014, NASA published a paper and "Henry Martinez" was an author, he
    is a chief engineer at Lockheed Martin.

    An X user named "Henry Martinez," made in 2023, made only a single
    post on Dec 21, 2023.

    The post only said "Cole Allen."



    I don't believe in time travel (other than going forward in time as we
    all do) but there's more than enough here to keep the conspiracy
    believers going for a long time.

    Exactly! Every one of these damned conspiracy theories demands a whole
    lot of really implausible things to work.

    It's the same with the allegedly fake Moon landings. How many of the
    people involved, including cameramen, props people, etc., would have to
    be bribed/threatened - or killed after the fact - to keep the secret?
    Even then, how reliable could all that bribing, threatening or killing
    be? Somebody surely would have blabbed.

    Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941 was a VERY big secret
    and he did everything he could to keep it a secret but a number of
    Germans with Communist sympathies snuck over the Soviet border in the
    weeks during the troop buildup that preceded the invasion to try to warn
    the Soviets of what was coming. The local commanders passed the
    information up the chain of command and in every case, Stalin declared
    these warnings provocations and ordered the defectors shot, enabling
    Hitler to give Stalin a VERY big surprise on June 22, 1941.

    Maybe we should stop taking presidents to the Hinckley Hilton.

    I?ve already got friends posting how obviously faked it was.

    They've figured it out. I mean, I routinely would show up to stand post at various events and then have the site agent tell me during the pre-event brief
    that at a certain point, we're going to stage a fake assassination attempt and
    let some guy with guns into the venue and we're all expected to play along. Happened all the time and we had no problem participating in a massive crime and cover-up.

    Just like the moon landing, they keep faking again every 60 years

    It just adds further proof that Americans shouldn't have guns ... they
    are so hopeless with them that they keep missing Trump the Chump. :-p

    It would be no surprise if all the so-called "attempts" were faked.
    Everything the Trumnp the Chump idiot says is completely made up
    nonsense.

    It's easy enough to cover up the news of it being a faked attempt wen
    you have time travel as this guy points out.

    https://x.com/ProudSocialist/status/2048393950789038255

    There is some really weird stuff going on with this staged shooting.

    The shooter?s name is Cole Allen.

    He uploaded a photo wearing an IDF t-shirt to instagram prior to the
    shooting and google searches for his name trended in Israel prior to
    the shooting.

    Now it gets even weirder.

    A man by the name of Henry Martinez made a single post on X in 2023
    that read: ?Cole Allen.?

    And it looks like they knew each other as both Cole Allen and Henry
    Martinez interned at NASA?s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 2014.

    There is no logical way to explain how Henry Martinez would know all
    the way back in 2023 that Cole Allen would do this in 2026 unless Time
    Travel is real and this is Henry?s way of hinting to us that it is
    real.

    You could argue the other way to explain it is this shooting was being
    planned all the way back in 2023 but that was before President Trump
    had won a 2nd term and as crazy as it sounds seems even more
    farfetched than Time Travel. ??

    I remember seeing articles in 2023 declaring Trump a dead duck or a
    has-been or words to that effect; they were sure he'd never be President
    again. But there were others taking a contrary view and I have to
    imagine that Trump-haters must have talked about what they could do if
    he did get elected again. Discussing their options seems entirely
    plausible although they would have been careful to not be too open or
    detailed about it given the USSS.

    I'm not about to buy time travel as part of a plot though ;-)

    And let's just remember that neither "Cole Allen" nor "Henry Martinez"
    are particularly unique names. Either reference could refer to DIFFERENT
    people than those implicated in last night's events.


    Then there's this:

    Cole Allen interned at NASA in 2014.

    In 2014, NASA published a paper and "Henry Martinez" was an author, he
    is a chief engineer at Lockheed Martin.

    An X user named "Henry Martinez," made in 2023, made only a single
    post on Dec 21, 2023.

    The post only said "Cole Allen."



    I don't believe in time travel (other than going forward in time as we
    all do) but there's more than enough here to keep the conspiracy
    believers going for a long time.

    Agreed. They *could* keep this going on the basis of some coincidences.
    But they may also be distracted away from it on the basis of the next
    shiny object they see. And most sane people will dismiss it as yet
    another conspiracy theory.
