(Central News Agency Washington 26th Comprehensive Foreign Report) US President Trump stated today that the suspect who allegedly attempted to attack administrative officials at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner last night wrote an anti-Christian manifesto and was "filled with hate." Fortunately, the suspect was intercepted before entering the hotel banquet hall.
Reuters reported that Trump said in an exclusive interview with Fox News Channel that the suspect "is a sick person," and his family had previously raised concerns about him to law enforcement officials. Officials identified the 31-year-old suspect as Cole Tomas Allen, a resident of Torrance, a suburb of Los Angeles, who was arrested at the scene of the crime in Washington D.C.
Trump told "The Sunday Briefing" program: "When you read his manifesto, you know he hates Christians."
A law enforcement official told Reuters that Allen's family received his manifesto shortly before the incident, in which the suspect called himself a "Friendly Federal Assassin."
According to the official, the manifesto stated: "When others are oppressed, turning the other cheek when someone strikes your right cheek is not Christian behavior, but rather an accomplice to the oppressor's crime."
Officials noted that the targets listed in the manifesto included various government officials, from high-ranking to low-ranking, but specifically excluded FBI Director Kash Patel.
The official also said the manifesto ridiculed the "absurd" security flaws at the Washington Hilton Hotel, where the White House Correspondents' Association dinner was held.
According to reports, the manifesto stated: "As soon as I walked into the hotel, I immediately felt that arrogance. I entered with multiple weapons, yet no one thought I might pose a threat."
"The New York Post" reported that Allen wrote in his manifesto: "I am no longer willing to let a pedophile, rapist, and traitor stain my hands with his crimes."
He stated: "To reduce casualties, I will use buckshot instead of slugs (which have lower penetration into walls)." Allen then admitted that he was willing to kill everyone in the banquet hall if it achieved his goal.
"If absolutely necessary, to achieve the goal, I would still go through most of the people present (because most people willingly came to listen to a pedophile, rapist, and traitor speak, and are therefore accomplices). But I truly hope it doesn't come to this."
He further stated: "All security measures for this event were outside, focusing on protesters and newcomers, because apparently no one considered what would happen if someone checked in a day early. This level of dereliction of duty is simply insane, and I sincerely hope this issue can be rectified when competent leadership emerges in this country again."
He also mentioned: "For example, if I were not a US citizen but an Iranian agent, I could easily bring in a damn M2 heavy machine gun, and no one would even notice anything unusual. This is simply crazy."
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said on NBC's "Meet the Press" program that investigators believe Allen traveled by train from Los Angeles, via Chicago, to Washington D.C., speculating that this might have been done to circumvent security checks required for air travel.
