The gunman who opened fire outside the White House Correspondents' Dinner called himself the 'Friendly Federal Assassin' in a chilling manifesto he wrote before the attack.
Cole Allen, 31, sent the eerie anti-Trump writing to his family members just 10 minutes before he fired shots at the hotel in Washington, where the ritzy press gala was taking place on Saturday night.
The harrowing writing was given to police by a relative, a US official said.
According to the New York Post, Allen's manifesto read: 'Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed. I'm not the person raped in a detention camp. I'm not the fisherman executed without trial.
'I'm not a schoolkid blown up or a child starved or a teenage girl abused by the many criminals in this administration. Turning the other cheek when *someone else* is oppressed is not Christian behavior; it is complicity in the oppressor's crimes.
'In order to minimize casualties I will also be using buckshot rather than slugs (less penetration through walls).
'I would still go through most everyone here to get to the targets if it were absolutely necessary (on the basis that most people *chose* to attend a speech by a pedophile, rapist, and traitor, and are thus complicit) but I really hope it doesn't come to that.'
His targets included 'Administration officials (not including [FBI Director Kash] Patel): they are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest.'
Allen wrote, allegedly referencing the president: 'I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.'

Records show that Allen purchased a Maverick 12 gauge shotgun in August 2025 and an Armscor Precision .38 semi-automatic pistol in October 2023.
Note that he purchased the pistol in October 2023, the same month Hamas massacred jews in Israel.

This is just more proof a lot of liberals are lying illogical lunatics. The whole manifesto in a nutshell shell is, “I am all for Democracy and free elections etc until our candidate loses then it is OK to kill your candidate!” I don’t think that is how Democracy works..
It’s far from chilling... it’s the ramblings of a leftist liberal lunatic.
Liberalism is a disease that needs to be eradicated with extreme prejudice.
Sounds like Palestinian thinking.
"What ever can we do to get away from this assassination culture that we are in?
Hmmmmm.... Well, look at the @$$#0les who gunned down the insurance CEO and the other one camped out near Trump's golf course, lying in wait to kill him. Look at the one who killed Charlie Kirk in the most grotesque and in your face assassination/psyop who shot him in the neck in front of thousands of his fans, his family, and his friends.
What do these @$$#0les all have in common?
That's right -- They are STILL BREATHING.
And only one has gone to trial, the other two are still futzing around with courtroom decoration, catering, and lighting, TV, etc. No wonder this goes on and on!
Fix that and the assassination culture immediately stops.
Or just kill the assassins. No trial.
Interesting how a govt sniper was all set, ready to do this, at Butler. Don’t think people realize how odd and off the wall that was. It is pretty much like being instantly Jack Rubied. A little too quick and orderly not to have been prearranged.
Chicago’s a big train hub - like Atlanta is to flying.
My kid can do that
He would probably want to sign up
Idk how he does it. The military would want him if it wasn’t for his health issues
But they would draft his ass in a heart beat I bet
And the social media was scrubbed. Body destroyed. Blood washed off the roof. Reports his house was sanitized.
Regardless of deep water ports those blue cities will not get fuel. Are truckers going to risk their lives to deliver fuel? Who will defend refineries since blue states have basically outlawed refining fuel? And if blue states with ports, (Washington, Oregon, California on the west) get supplied how do they move and unload the boats? Will the democrat party terrorist antifa goons put their lives on the live protecting shipping routes when they can’t be bothered to get out of bed before noon? Just look at their “CHAZ” zone and how fast that fell apart. They can fantasize all they want about their civil war but there is zero situation they win. It will be ugly any way it happens. But they lose no matter.
Don’t even have to break things. Just a few good boys blocking a rail or highway will be enough. No trucker or rail engineer is going to risk their life to take goods in to blue city s holes. AND even if they were.ll they have nothing to transport as most everything is produced outside the city.
“Allen wrote, allegedly referencing the president: ‘I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.’”
And so the answer to being innocent of this (according to him) is mass murder.
I know, it’s beyond stinky.
No problem there. My question is, was he carrying the shotgun at the time he attacked the SS officer he shot. The video of him fleeing afterwards does not appear to show him carrying anything other than an ordinary semi auto pistol. So my question remains, “Was he carrying the shotgun at the time of the assault?”
