Conspiracy Theories Explode After WHCD Shooting

A wave of misinformation has surged online in the aftermath of the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday.

Donald and Melania Trump, as well as top Cabinet officials, were abruptly evacuated from the black-tie event on Saturday evening after shots rang out outside the ballroom at the Washington Hilton.

The suspected gunman, 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen, was stopped after rushing past a security checkpoint armed with two firearms and multiple knives, apparently intending to attack Trump and members of his Cabinet.
