A teacher at a pre-K and kindergarten in Cincinnati, Ohio, is facing intense backlash and calls for her termination after posting a video expressing her disappointment that President Donald Trump survived the latest assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday. Corinne Baum, whose LinkedIn says she is a teacher at The Children’s House in Cincinnati, a private Montessori-style school, posted a video lamenting the news that the gunman’s attempt on the president’s life had failed. “Man, there’s been a few creators on here saying that like Friday or yesterday could have been the day, and then I...

UFC President Dana White said being at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner during the shooting was “-–-ing awesome,” in a characteristically unfiltered reaction rapidly circulating on social media. White, 56, a longtime Trump ally, said he was seated “right in front of the president” when the gunfire broke out, and described the hectic scene to a reporter recording him on his phone. “It started getting noisy — tables getting flipped over, guys running in with guns and screaming ‘get down!'” he recalled. “I didn’t get down, it was -–-ing awesome. I literally took every minute of it in. It was...

A Los Angeles County deputy district attorney has revealed he is close friends with the parents of the gunman snared at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Paul Thompson, a Democratic major crimes division prosecutor, told the California Post he lives next door to the family but said Cole Allen “pretty much kept to himself.” He said the Caltech-educated gunman, who is accused of trying to storm the doors just yards away from President Trump, still lived with his parents at the address in Torrance.

A brewery in Wisconsin is offering free beer on the day President Trump is successfully killed. Aren't they literally offering gifts or compensation for the murder of a sitting US President? Shouldn't the FBI go speak with them?

Most cheered, but some called it a hoax or claimed it was a Trump supporter who did it. We've seen it before -- the giggling, the gloating. The left always dances a jig whenever evil takes a shot at President Trump, which happened again last night. President Trump charitably called the would-be assassin 'a sick person.' But the left embraced that 'sick.' They hate Trump so much they hailed that sicko and all the evil around him. The most hideous ones were found on X: [numerous X posts in article] SNIP Obviously, they are constrained by staff rules and can't...

The suspected White House Correspondents' Association Dinner shooter, Cole Tomas Allen, signal boosted posts on the left-wing social media platform Bluesky arguing that President Donald Trump should be "immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes" and criticizing a "Freedom of the Press" pocket square that many journalists donned at last night’s dinner as "a white flag that no one can read unless you pull it out and wave it in defeat," a Washington Free Beacon review found, suggesting he thought a stronger message of opposition to the president was called for. "the president of the united states is...

In the ongoing study of the effectiveness of handguns as a defense against bears, there are over 200 documented cases. Of those, 184 involve only handguns. The others are combination situations where other deadly force was used in addition to handguns. Of the 184 cases, 161 include information about the number of shots fired. In 23 cases, the number of shots is not known.The data is likely skewed by unavoidable selection bias. The data is limited to cases that are documented. There is a strong selection bias against cases that do not involve dramatic outcomes or human injury, or that...

His manifesto had some of the angry talking points fed to the public by Democrat politicians and the media...Last Wednesday, Hakeem Jeffries said, "Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time. We're in a war right now to save this country. And so you have to be willing to do whatever is necessary in order to save the country."Ted Lieu constantly calls President Trump a pedophile, for which there is no evidence whatsoever.Tim Walz keeps hoping to wake up to news of President Trump's death.Tim Walz and Chris Murphy went to Spain to trash the President. That is what traitors do.

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...

Just hours after President Donald J. Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and key members of his Cabinet were rushed to safety during a shocking shooting scare at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last night, one Democrat Wisconsin brewery owner couldn’t hide his disappointment. Minocqua Brewing Company – a far-left operation in Minocqua, Wisconsin – allegedly took to Facebook (his Facebook post has now been deleted) to share his outrage that the latest attempt on President Trump’s life didn’t succeed. They even dusted off their disgusting “free beer all day the day he dies” promotion, with posts...

It’s bad enough when leftists lie. It’s worse when they openly tell the truth. Leftists are no longer hiding their plans to take your guns if they ever gain power. That means it’s time to get activated in defending freedom. The gun-grabber ghouls of the left have always played a little game incrementally demanding more control over a commonsense and constitutional civil right. Though they used to occasionally say the quiet part out loud, things have changed. They’ve never been as blatant about it as they are now. In the past, the ghouls had the advantage that history had yet...

President Trump and first lady Melania were dramatically evacuated from the White House Correspondents' Dinner less than 30 minutes after arriving. It was unclear what happened, but there were reports of a shooter.

During and after the American Revolution, there was no registration of firearms in the colonies that were to become the United States. There is good evidence that handguns were commonly owned during this period.One of the primary sources comes from records of the occupation of Boston by General Gage, both before and after the battles of Lexington and Concord. The history of these engagements was meticulously recorded by Richard Frothingham in the History of the Siege of Boston, published in 1873. Frothingham used original sources, particularly the Boston Town Meeting Minutes of 22-28 April, 1775, for the numbers of weapons.After...

It starts with a crusade against ‘ghost guns.’ It ends with government bureaucrats able to see everything you do. One of the most essential branches of English liberty is the freedom of one’s house.” —James Otis, patriot. As an American citizen, whenever legislators deploy the ever-flimsy progressive banner of “public safety,” I feel decidedly unsafe. Newly proposed and enacted legislation targeting 3D printers and CNC machines would impose restrictions more severe than those the Supreme Court rejects for actual guns. In conjunction with restrictions on tools, states would create a category of computer source code illegal to possess. The excuse?...

The fatal victim of a Louisiana mall shooting which left at least five more injured has been identified as an innocent 17-year-old private schoolgirl. Martha Odom, a senior at Ascension Episcopal School in Youngsville, was killed on Thursday afternoon at Baton Rouge's Mall of Louisiana after being struck in crossfire when two groups began shooting at each other, authorities said.

The police just came to my office and confiscated all my firearms. Just happened.
