Schumer, Jeffries Ripped After Tone Deaf Statements on WHCD Shooting
“You guys should probably drop the whole illegal immigrant protection racket and agree to fund Secret Service now.”
Not surprisingly, the shooting that took place at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner on Saturday night at the Washington Hilton forced the postponement of the event, with President Trump, who was swiftly escorted from the building after the shots were fired, pledging that it will be rescheduled within the next 30 days.
“I have spoken with all the representatives in charge of the event, and we will be rescheduling within 30 days,” Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social, about 45 minutes after the shots rang out.
Not much is known about the suspect (who is in custody) beyond his name and age:
NEWS: The attempted shooter at the White House Correspondent's Dinner is 31 year old Cole Tomas Allen from Torrance, California and he is in custody.

There are unconfirmed reports (as of this writing) that he’s an educator who donated to Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign:
Cole Tomas (T.) Allen alleged shooting suspect registered as No Party Preference according to @rpyers
Other sources say he donated to Kamala. Was also Teacher of the Month in Los Angeles county. https://t.co/q40f29TDBT pic.twitter.com/BY7QNI092t— Amy Reichert (@amyforsandiego) April 26, 2026

I don’t think it’s going out on a limb to speculate that this guy was after Trump.
With that in mind, let us turn to the statements from the highest-ranking Democrats in the House and Senate: House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). Discerning readers will note that there was no mention of the president’s name from either of them:
I am closely monitoring the unfolding situation at the White House Correspondents Dinner. I’m grateful for the quick response of law enforcement and am praying everyone remains safe.
— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) April 26, 2026
Thankful for the swift law enforcement action to protect everyone from gunfire at the White House Correspondents Dinner.
Praying for the safety of those who may remain in harm’s way.
The violence and chaos in America must end.
— Hakeem Jeffries (@RepJeffries) April 26, 2026
That did not go over well with people who not only remember all the vile names Trump has been called over the years but also the fact that funding for the Secret Service, which is part of DHS, is currently being held up by Democrats:
Reminder: The Secret Service is currently unfunded because of the Democrats’ DHS funding shutdown.

What you should monitor is the rhetoric your side is pushing to your deranged activists https://t.co/ErvQzBiavp

What you should monitor is that you defunded the law enforcement who stopped this for a cheap political stunt. https://t.co/3KL1R3D9oz

It’s you and idiots like you that encourage violence like this. You objectify your political opponents and dehumanize them. And then you voice faux concern like you give a shit.
You should be ashamed of yourself. https://t.co/VxZZHiMESS

What a piece of garbage. https://t.co/Mr55u9kWQf

These guys spend all day calling Trump Hitler and a dangerous fascist, then shut down funding for the people who protect him…
Then act surprised when things like this happen. https://t.co/SsttRJcGjF

Dear Leader Newsom is trying to spin the idea that the Communist “journalists” present at the WHCD were the REAL targets:

You know Newsome, Jefferies, Schumer, the last ayatollah and their ilk were all saying, under their breath, “damn! So close but no cigar. We’ll have to keep hoping.”
Sorry about the down vote.
Since the shooter is an “educator”, maybe it’s time to label teachers and the teachers union domestic terrorists!
About 50 years overdue….
Surprise, surprise. The Democrat leadership had nothing decent to say.
The leopard cannot change its spots.
You hit it exactly
I think it’s neither hyperbole nor facetious to think that behind closed doors these two are disappointed that the assassin didn’t succeed.
Jefferies and Schumer are the perfect face of the modern Democrat party.
in a strange twist,, the always anti freedom gunner leftists are now creating a bill to fund school teachers to purchase 9mm and join a shooting range
“not much is known”
ahahah
he is a blmplo supporter who will be the newest darling of the “social murderers” brigade who they will cop a plea for pr purposes…30 years mental eval with the promiser to take meds as he is feted at the next left run state of the union or lefty bar mitzvah
they will walk back his “confession” on trump being the target and as have noted here before,,, the lefty the tricky lefty might have the “confession” not allowed in a court of law
they have pulled that trick before claiming that any confession done before atty was available is to be throw out
