Cole Allen Manifesto Revealed; Alleged Gunman Blasts Trump as ‘Rapist, …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The White House Correspondents’ Dinner came to an abrupt and violent conclusion on Saturday night.

A gunman identified as Cole Tomas Allen rushed into the Washington Hilton Hotel armed with two guns and multiple knives.

After exchanging fire with authorities and wounding a Secret Service agent, Allen was apprehended and taken into custody.

Now, excerpts from a manifesto that the suspect allegedly sent to his friends and family has revealed new information about his motives and beliefs.

“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,” Allen allegedly wrote (per The New Yo‘\rk Post), adding:

“Turning the other cheek when someone else is oppressed is not Christian behaviour; it is complicity in the oppressor’s crimes.

“I am no longer willing to permit a paedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.”

He went on to explain that he would be taking precautions in order to minimize bystander casualties:

“In order to minimize casualties, I will also be using buckshot rather than slugs (less penetration through walls),” he wrote before disturbingly admitting he was willing to kill everyone in the room if it meant getting to his targets,” Allen allegedly wrote.

“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.”

In comments to Fox News, Trump described Allen as “a very troubled guy” (via TMZ). He also cited the incident as further proof that the White House needs its own ballroom.

“We need the ballroom,” he said, listing some of its features, including bulletproof glass and “drone-proof” security.

Several Trump supporters echoed the president’s claims:

“Unfortunately, the First Lady and I had to be evacuated from the White House correspondents’ dinner alongside the President and the entire cabinet,” Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry posted on X, referring to his wife, Sharon. “This event is yet another reason that President Trump’s ballroom should be built!”

Rep. Randy Fine (R-Florida) wrote: “We’d better never again hear a peep from anyone complaining about a White House ballroom.”

Having allegedly received marching orders from the White House, the usual gang of conservative influencers echoed the demand for Trump’s ballroom to be completed.

“THIS IS WHY WE NEED TRUMP’S BALLROOM,” wrote the Libs of TikTok account.

Trump’s ballroom, which will feature a secure bunker beneath it, has been a subject of widespread controversy ever since the president tore down the White House’s East Wing in October.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Mykelti Brown Describes ‘Cowering’ Around Meri as Kids, How Nothing the …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

There was a time when many Sister Wives viewers felt sorry for Meri Brown.

But the “poor Meri” days are over.

During her most recent interview, Mykelti Brown discussed the “mean” sister wife.

She remembers “cowering” in her presence, but how nothing that she or her siblings said or did made a difference.

On the ‘Cults to Consciousness’ podcast, guest Mykelti Brown describes the complexities of her family’s dynamic. (Image Credit: YouTube)

‘I do not like Meri’

During this week’s episode of the Cults to Consciousness podcast, Mykelti Brown appeared as a guest.

The Sister Wives star spoke on a series of interesting topics — from how growing up in a polygamous family made her imagine herself as a sister wife one day to how TLC changed the family dynamic to how the family unit began to fracture less dramatically than some might guess.

But, of course, this conversation also included discussion of Meri.

“I do not like Meri,” Mykelti expressed. For those unfamiliar with Sister Wives, she added: “She is my dad’s first wife.”

She continued: “I do not like her … she was mean growing up.” Mykelti then added that Meri “still is” mean, even now.

“I don’t care what she looks like on the show,” Mykelti continued, reminding everyone that behavior changes when someone knows that they are on camera.

“She was aggressive. She was manipulative,” she listed.

Remember how Christine realized that she was the “basement wife” of the family? Meri’s position, until Robyn, was the opposite.

“She was the favorite wife,” Mykelti described. “And she got the favorite wife privileges and perks.”

But Meri still had the responsibility of watching the family’s children. And Mykelti and at least some of her siblings dreaded those times.

Growing up in a polygamous family had Mykelti Brown picturing that for her future as an adult, she admitted. (Image Credit: YouTube)

She remembers ‘cowering’ around the sister wife

“All of us kids were cowering and we were all scared,” Mykelti recalled. “We were all like, ‘OK, whatever you say, Meri. Just don’t hurt me, don’t be mean to me. Don’t yell at me.’”

(Mykelti does not bring up specific allegations of physical abuse, but she has admitted that she watches her words on this topic to avoid consequences for her family and their show.)

“She had this, like, scream she would do [when] she wasn’t getting her way and it was, like, pure loud and angry and just scary,” she described.

Mykelti elaborated: “It was like what you would imagine a freaking dragon screaming at a little child. Think about that.”

That sounds like both toxic behavior and a sign of a disturbed and emotionally immature individual.

According to Mykelti, when Meri was in charge, they all got “severely disciplined, talked down to, grounded.”

Naturally, many Sister Wives fans — and others — might be asking why the Brown kids didn’t simply talk to the other sister wives, especially their biological mothers, about it.

Over time, Mykelti explained, they learned to not bring it up, because nothing changed. It seemed like none of the parents wanted to hear it.

“They didn’t talk about it [and say], ‘No, no, that’s not OK for any parent to do that,’” she lamented. Kody, she said, also seemed to brush it off.

This is actually extremely common in families when there’s one bad parent. Other factors — a stepparent, one parent being the breadwinner, and both parents’ cultural backgrounds can also lead to otherwise good (or at least, relatively better) parents turning a blind eye to their own child’s mistreatment, sometimes in the name of “presenting a united front.”

Thinking back, Mykelti Brown remembers how her family fractured slowly but surely when the sister wives moved to Vegas. (Image Credit: YouTube)

Like so many bad childhoods, things only improved when they got bigger

“So it got to the point where we just stopped saying something,” Mykelti elaborated.

“Until we got older and then we got bigger, stronger, tougher, and knew this wasn’t OK,” she continued. “That’s when it stopped.” 

Mykelti added that filming for Sister Wives didn’t make things any easier.

She and her siblings were instructed to not discuss family drama — except what fit things that the adults were sharing on camera. That definitely included Meri.

It is heartbreaking that Mykelti and her siblings had to go through that. They, and millions of other children at any given moment, deserve much better.

Sherrone Moore: Mistress of Disgraced Michigan Coach Claims He Impregnated Her, …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Back in December of 2025, Michigan University head football coach Sherrone Moore was arrested for stalking and harassing a female colleague with whom he’d had a romantic relationship.

Moore was eventually charged with felony home invasion, but he managed to avoid jail time.

Now, his alleged victim, Paige Shiver, is speaking out about the incident for the first time and revealing shocking new details.

In a new interview with ABC News that aired in part on Good Morning America on Friday, Shiver revealed that Moore got her pregnant.

She added that she wanted to keep the baby, but was advised not to due to her rare genetic disorder known as Pompe disease.

“Multiple doctors and experts told me that it wouldn’t be right or healthy for me to keep the baby,” Shiver said

Shiver alleged that Moore knew about the pregnancy and encouraged her to get an abortion. “He said, ‘You have to do what’s right for your body,’ ” Shiver said.

“All of the sudden I hear footsteps and they’re getting closer and louder, so I’m like, ‘Crap.’ So I run to my door to try to lock it,” Shiver said.

Elsewhere in the interview, Shiver opened up about the terror she experienced when Moore broke into her home.

“He barges in and he’s standing this close to me and he said, ‘You ruined my life, why would you do this to me?’ And I started backing up and he starts following me,” she said, adding:

“Oh my gosh, yes. He’s 6’4” and he comes in with his hood up, looking down at me saying I ruined his life, crying and he starts coming at me and I tell him to leave.

“He’s not supposed to be here. He’s not listening to me. And then he starts grabbing butter knives.”

Asked if she loved him, Shiver replied, “Back then, I did, but obviously looking back at things and really reflecting on what happened, what was happening, that’s not love at all.”

Shiver also criticized the responsd from her former bosses at Michigan, nothing that “they cared more about winning football games, not having another scandal, and trying to protect the head coach”

Earlier this month, Moore pled no contest to two misdemeanor charges and received a sentence of 18 months probation.

“I think he should have gotten more punishment for what he did,” Shiver said.

Shiver’s attorneys, Andrew M. Stroth and Steven A. Hart, have criticized the sentence, saying that it “does not reflect the seriousness of Moore’s unlawful entry and aggressive attack on Ms. Shiver on December 10th,”

Reached for comment this week, Moore’s attorney, Ellen Michaels, said in a statement to ABC News, “Sherrone Moore has closed this chapter.”

‘RHOA’ Star Drew Sidora Accuses Ex Ralph Pittman of Beating Their Child, Says …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Bravo viewers have seen ugly The Real Housewives of Atlanta divorces before.

But this one is downright chilling.

Drew Sidora has already been fighting the order for her to vacate the marital home, citing that she does not have the money to move.

She has also asked the court to review what she says is video evidence of her estranged husband abusing their child. Awful stuff.

Obvious content warning for descriptions of alleged child-abuse

TMZ obtained divorce court documents that reveal Sidora’s abuse allegation against estranged husband Ralph Pittman.

In the filing, Sidora asks the judge to reconsider a previous order that she vacate the former couple’s Georgia home.

At present, she is required to leave the residence by the end of May.

As Sidora has previously expressed, she does not currently have the funds to move — or she’d likely be out already.

She has asked the court to reverse the decision, otherwise she fears that she will become homeless.

During a previous hearing, Pittman blamed Sidora for one of their children being excessively tardy to school.

Apparently, this was enough for the judge to award primary custody of their two children to Pittman — at least for now.

But Sidora accuses Pittman of being monstrously abusive.

In her filing, she reminds the court that she previously submitted evidence in the form of “a video in which [Pittman] can be heard severely beating the parties’ son.”

According to Sidora, Pittman admitted to the abuse in 2024 — but then denied it during a March 2026 hearing.

It’s unclear why the court previously ruled in Pittman’s favor

Sidora’s filing expresses confusion over why the court awarded primary custody to Pittman.

She wrote that he has a “documented history of physically abusing the parties’ son.”

Pittman has yet to publicly respond to the filing, which has now become public knowledge.

Meanwhile, the court has not yet ruled on Sidora’s filing.

We should add that Sidora’s documents allege that Pittman has admitted that the house’s mortgage is $25,000 behind.

Presumably, the court will review evidence of the vile abuse that Sidora describes within the filing.

One would hope that, if it matches her description, the custody arrangement would be corrected immediately.

That said, as we have noted before, the United States legal system does not really prioritize children’s safety or humanity, especially not in the face of “parents’ rights.”

It is our hope that this recording does not become public. Some victims personally share videos to expose their abusers, but circulating something like that against a victim’s will would re-victimize them rather than rescue them.

Our hearts go out to the children. Our society and our legal system have already failed them.

Prince Harry Urged to Divorce Meghan Markle & Marry ‘Traditional’ (White) …

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Recenty, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s trip to Australia put smiles on the faces of everyone they encountered.

This has put hardcore royalists, who cling to the ailing monarchy and despise the Sussexes for escaping it, into a panic.

A series of weird hit pieces have come out. One in particular calls for Harry to divorce his wife and come crawling back and marry and “English Rose.”

Please do not play a drinking game every time that you encounter a racist dogwhistle. You’d surely perish.

There are people who believe that the UK must ‘save’ Harry from his happily ever after

It really feels like hardcore supporters of the royal family — and perhaps the royal firm itself — are crashing out over Harry and Meghan’s popularity.

It’s not that everyone likes them. Some people have no opinion on them whatsoever.

But it seems like the two are very well-liked in every part of the English-speaking world except for one little island. It just happens to be the island on which Harry was born.

Amidst the Sussex pair’s trip Down Under, hit pieces have included weird fanfiction about Queen Elizabeth, weird insinuations that Meghan is greedy or a flake (or both?), and whining about the couple’s daughter’s name.

Another new, deeply weird article wants to “save” Harry from … happiness? Freedom? From the love of his life?

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (@meghan)

The Spectator‘s William Atkinson, who does not even have the most British name that we’ll mention, argues that “Britain must welcome its wayward prince home.”

In an article that claims to have been initially supportive of Harry and Meghan’s wedding at the time, it doesn’t take long before deeply weird, racist dogwhistles emerge.

“The presence of Oprah Winfrey and an over-enthusiastic American preacher had been a little gauche,” the writer seemingly cannot help but announce.

In the article, Harry’s time serving in the military in Afghanistan was not a praiseworthy act of public service, but something to give a “troubled” prince structure.

The writer also contrasts Harry with another royal from the literal actual 1300s, lamenting that Harry “did not have the delights of conquering the French.” Someone sounding nostalgic for The Hundred Years’ War carries a certain kind of vibe that is unsurprising in such an article.

This is where things get even worse

The article says that, after his military service, “rather than settle down with a Chelsy Davy or a Cressida Bonas, Harry found himself adrift.”

Those are not exaggerated hypothetical British person names, but the names of actual women. Would it surprise you to hear that both of the women in question are white?

Would it surprise you to learn that the author goes on to describe anyone calling out racism as “grievance-mongering,” even if they themselves are on the receiving end of the racism?

One cannot help but get the impression that the issue with Meghan is that she does not sunburn as easily as the “new Sloane or English Rose” that the author urges him to marry.

The other issue, of course, is that she seems to care about Harry’s mental health. The author doesn’t seem to love that Harry himself cares about it, either.

A post shared by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (@meghan)

During the article, there is whining that Harry is “still trotting out tired cliches about his mental health.”

The author then spirals, spewing out meaningless claims like: “Harry was a victim of peak woke.”

Bizarrely, the article accuses: “His wife embodies all its worst excesses: the stultifying focus on mental health, a nihilistic desire to tear down institutions, perpetual grievance-mongering around sex and race.”

It’s true that, if someone believes that acknowledging systemic inequality and wanting them to change is bad — the definition of woke — then they probably do not like Meghan.

Yes, she cares about these things. But the tone and diction of the article feel like a big priority would be for Harry’s hypothetical “English Rose” to be lily white. Yikes!

We don’t even point this out to call out this particular writer. Mostly.

As we said, it’s only one of several panicked hitpieces that have emerged in recent weeks as the royals watch Harry and Meghan’s effortless charisma in places where their own visits fell flat.

‘Summer House’ Reunion Leak of Ciara Miller vs Amanda Batula CONDEMNED by …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

We already knew how Ciara Miller feels about Amanda Batula.

The former besties were so cozy during Season 10. But she found out that their close friendship was a lie.

A stunning Summer House reunion leak shared the confrontation — well ahead of when it will air on Bravo.

Andy Cohen is furious. And he’s right to be.

‘It’s disgusting and illegal’

“Good morning,” Andy Cohen wrote on Threads — Meta’s attempt to replace Twitter — on Friday, April 24.

“Andy stay offline please,” a reply urged him. “You won’t like the news.”

While every day’s news brings some new screaming horror, this warning from a fan was more specific.

Dramatic leaked audio from the Bravo series’ reunion special features Ciara Miller and Amanda Batula’s epic confrontation.

This is supposed to be a highlight of the Season 10 reunion, which of course has not yet aired. This is a demoralizing leak, and Andy’s not happy.

“I don’t,” Andy told the fan who warned him that he wouldn’t like the news. “On my way to eye surgery and just reading about it.”

He lamented: “People laid their souls out emotionally for ten hours yesterday.”

Andy continued: “And it’s disgusting and illegal for someone to leak or distribute this.”

He added: “It’s disrespectful to the work and tears the cast put in yesterday.”

To fans, Andy encouraged: “Let the season play out. You will see it all in due time.”

‘You’re a snake’

In the leaked audio, Miller excoriates Batula over the latter’s relationship with West Wilson.

Why? Because Wilson is Miller’s ex. And, of course, because Batula kept it a secret until hours before she and Wilson confirmed their relationship publicly.

And we think that Miller does a pretty good job of explaining her ire.

“There are a million other f–king guys in New York City and … you chose the one guy,” Miller pointed out.

She then called her former bestie a “f–king snake.”

“You’re a snake in the f–king grass … and you know you are,” Miller continued. “You move silent, but you’re f–king deadly.”

We don’t think that she meant to stray so close to flatulence humor.

Batula protested that “there were so many layers and complications to it.” She also argued: “You can’t help who you like and are attracted to.”

Reportedly, most of the cast seemed downright subdued upon arrival for the reunion taping on Thursday.

What a mess. We’re sorry about the leak, and we’re looking forward to watching the drama play out in the actual episode.

Kash Patel: Muliple Alcohol-Related Arrests Revealed In Legal Docs

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Earlier this week, we reported on the news that FBI Director Kash Patel is suing The Atlantic, alleging that the magazine defamed him with a recent article about his alcohol intake and job performance.

In the wake of the article, Democrats in Congress have called on Patel to answer questions about his drinking under penalty of perjury.

Patel has repeatedly denied that his drinking is an issue, but he may have trouble making his case in the wake of today’s news that he has twice been arrested for alcohol-related violations.

According to The Intercept, when Patel began working for the Miami-Dade County Public Defender’s Office in 2005, he wrote a letter elaborating on disclosures from his Florida Bar application relating to the two arrests.

He explained that the first incident occurred in February of 2001, when he was a junior at the University of Richmond.

He was under 21 years of age at the time and claimde that he had only had two drinks before getting ejected from the crowd at a Richmond basketball game for “excessive” cheering.

He paid a fine as a result of that run-in with the law.

The second incident occurred in 2005, when Kash was a law student at Pace University in New York City.

A post shared by The Intercept (@theintercept)

He says he was walking home with friends after a night out, when, “in a gross deviation from appropriate conduct, we attempted to relieve our bladders while walking home.”

In that case too, Patel got off with a fine.

“Both of these incidents are not representative of my usual conduct of behavior,” he wrote in the letter, adding:

“And it is my hope that the Board views them as an anomaly. I dually apologize for my improper behavior both to the Board and the community at large.”⁠

“Kash’s entire background was thoroughly examined and vetted prior to him assuming this role,” Erica Knight, a spokesperson for Patel, said this week in response to The Atlantic article.

“These attacks are nothing more than an attempt to undermine a process that has already deemed him suitable to serve and a distraction to the record-breaking success of the FBI under Director Patel.”⁠

“Several officials told me that Patel’s drinking has been a recurring source of concern across the government. They said that he is known to drink to the point of obvious intoxication, in many cases at the private club Ned’s in Washington, D.C., while in the presence of White House and other administration staff,” Atlantic staff writer Sarah Fitzpatrick wrote at one point in the controversial article.

“He is also known to drink to excess at the Poodle Room, in Las Vegas, where he frequently spends parts of his weekends,” she continued, adding:

“Early in his tenure, meetings and briefings had to be rescheduled for later in the day as a result of his alcohol-fueled nights, six current and former officials and others familiar with Patel’s schedule told me.”

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
