Greg Kelly Reports | April 29, 2026 - The episode blasts Jimmy Kimmel's Melania death joke as proof that elite media culture now treats assassination rhetoric like entertainment instead of a line that should never be crossed. - Trump's celebrity-scale stature is framed as a real security complication, with fame itself distorting how people around him react under pressure during an assassination attempt. - The White House Correspondents' Dinner response is attacked as another Secret Service failure, with the delay in moving Trump treated as reckless, inexplicable, and potentially fatal. - The media is accused of laundering the shooter's language back into the public square, especially when Nora O'Donnell reads the manifesto to Trump instead of treating it like toxic propaganda. - The larger warning is blunt: anti-Trump demonization keeps feeding real violence, and pretending otherwise only makes the next attack more likely.

Brad Beeler spent 25 years in the U.S. Secret Service, working some of the most intense investigations in the country while also protecting presidents and high-profile targets. In this episode, Brad breaks down the truth about lie detector tests, what polygraphs actually measure, and how investigators use them to secure confessions. He shares real interrogation tactics, how agents read behavior and spot deception, and the psychological techniques used to get suspects to talk. We also dive into counterfeit money cases—how fake bills are detected, tracked, and tied back to criminals—and what really goes on behind the scenes in these federal investigations. _____________________________________________ #SecretService #LieDetector #Polygraph #Interrogation #TrueCrime #FederalAgent #CrimeInvestigation #LawEnforcement _____________________________________________ Connect with Brad Beeler: https://bradleybeeler.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Inside Interrogation & Secret Service Secrets (Full Story) 02:44 Early Life & Becoming a Federal Agent 06:06 Secret Service Internship: Behind the Scenes 10:31 Polygraph Tests & Interrogation Techniques 17:59 Detecting Lies: Psychology & Deception 26:16 Body Language, Rapport & Getting Confessions 31:19 Crime, Morality & Decision Making 39:30 Inside the Secret Service: Protective Details 47:07 Real Cases & Career Stories 55:05 Counterfeiting Crimes & Major Takedowns 01:06:18 Trauma, Stress & Life in Federal Law Enforcement 01:13:13 Coping with Trauma & Agency Culture 01:18:24 Modern Interrogation & Confession Tactics 01:22:01 Career Reflections & Final Lessons _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

Mike in Florida chimed in, comparing Zohran Mamdani's ideas to those of a dork. Ken from Brooklyn, NY, called to ask Mark for more clarity on how the Secret Service responded to the shooting incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
Iran war has cost $25 billion to date, defense official says, as Hegseth faces questions about war strategy. The round that struck a U.S. Secret Service officer during Saturday's shooting outside the ballroom where the White House Correspondents' Dinner was taking place was not friendly fire, multiple senior law enforcement officials told CBS News Wednesday. The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down Louisiana's congressional map that includes two majority-Black districts, delivering a significant victory for Republicans in a major decision that narrows the landmark Voting Rights Act.

Suspicion is widespread that the shooting incident outside the White House Correspondents' Dinner was a "stage-managed" false flag operation engineered by deep state operatives to justify construction of Trump's $400 million White House ballroom, which a federal judge had halted weeks earlier unless for "national security" purposes—and indeed, Trump immediately cited the incident to demand the ballroom. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger point to a series of anomalies from the event: Secret Service evacuated JD Vance first while Trump remained seated for nearly 20 seconds, violating protocol that the president must be protected above all else; a Fox News caller was cut off mid-sentence after revealing a warning about "people" in the room; and the shooter's lone tweet from 2023 simply said "Cole" before the attack. Jimmy notes that the shooter—a Caltech teacher of the year with no criminal record—abruptly opened fire on security personnel when he was hundreds of yards from the president, behavior consistent with MK Ultra mind control programming. He further connects the ballroom's architectural firm (Shalom Barness Associates) to synagogue and temple renovations, and Trump's Bible reading of 2 Chronicles 7 about temple dedication, suggesting the ballroom is designed to resemble Solomon's Temple as part of a Third Temple project. Plus segments on an ex-Seal Team 6 member calling BS on the Charlie Kirk assassination narrative, Dan Bongino insisting that a huge revelation is coming from Kash Patel and Donald Trump, Russian plans to take over major cities in Urkaine and Israel's plans to dominate the Middle East.

The White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting and the two previous assassination attempts on President Trump have exposed a chilling surge in national threat levels and the desperate need for modernized protective protocols. Former Secret Service Special Agent and DHS Advisor Charles Marino joins to discuss why high-profile presidential events require stricter National Special Security Event designation, the failure of the Secret Service advance process in Butler, PA, and whether the Department of Homeland Security is providing enough oversight to support Secret Service's overall mission. Federal agents from the FBI and Homeland Security raided more than 20 Minnesota businesses this week, marking a massive escalation in the fight against rampant fraud. While Minnesota has been under the spotlight for years regarding Medicaid fraud, the Trump administration is now launching a nationwide crackdown. CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz joins the program to explain how he is working to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse. He breaks down how these sophisticated scams operate and why he is putting every state governor on notice to help purge ineligible providers from the system.

The Trump administration "would prefer to do things that are easy," Rachel Maddow points out. And so, by making the implementation of a nationwide immigrant prison system not at all easy, and, in fact, quite hard, Americans pushing back against Trump's plan are winning, and Trump's prisons are not opening. Michael Wriston, co-founder of Project Salt Box, and Miles Taylor, former DHS chief of staff, talk with Rachel Maddow about their new project, GTFOICE.org, which is designed to help Americans mobilize against the construction of immigrant prisons in their local area. Rachel Maddow points out that the to the extent that the security breach at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner is a crisis for the Secret Service, it is only one of many crises that have come to characterize Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security. And Ezra Levin, co-executive director of Indivisible, talks with Rachel Maddow about the upcoming May Day protests and the progress of American activism in the Trump era. Want more of Rachel?

A man walked into the Washington Hilton with guns, a shotgun, and knives. A Secret Service agent got shot. Trump said the system worked. It did not. In this episode:
Trump Calls Off Iran Peace Talks. DJT Disapproval Hits Record High. GOP Senators Losing Confidence In Hegseth. Independent Brian Bengs Officially On The Ballot In South Dakota. A 31-year-old with a shotgun, a pistol, and a stack of knives tried to assassinate Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. A Secret Service agent took a round to the vest. Wolf Blitzer lost a shoe. And UFC's Dana White called it "awesome." Paul Rieckhoff — combat veteran, IAVA founder, 9/11 first responder and past attendee of the event — flies solo on this Manosphere Monday to put the attack in context: this is our normal now, and the president most responsible for the atmosphere is the same one weaponizing it against the press. And, he takes you inside what the event (and the security) are really like. From there it's a full and fast briefing — the collapse of Iran negotiations and Trump's billion-a-day bombing math, oil over $100 a barrel, Macron calling out the new axis lining up against Europe, GOP senators admitting Hegseth couldn't get reconfirmed today, and the White House's pearl-clutching campaign to cancel Jimmy Kimmel. Plus a real reason for hope: independent veteran and Senate candidate Brian Bengs officially on the ballot in South Dakota with the highest signature validation rate of any statewide candidate this cycle, and a Ukrainian grandma rescued from a shelled-out village by a ground robot with a blanket that read "grandma, get in."

Greg Kelly Reports | April 27, 2026 The attempted assassination at the White House Correspondents' Dinner is framed as a staggering Secret Service failure, with the episode arguing the outer checkpoint is effectively dead before the shooting even starts. Trump is left exposed too long while others are moved first, turning the response into a symbol of institutional drift, hesitation, and a protection system that no longer acts with old-school urgency. The show rejects the instant praise for law enforcement and instead treats Butler and the Washington attack as part of the same deeper rot: lowered standards, distraction, and a culture that resists real accountability. Media and Democratic rhetoric are blamed for helping create the atmosphere around the attack, with anti-Trump language portrayed not as careless commentary but as something dangerous enough to push unstable people toward violence. The closing message is blunt: protecting Trump now requires drastic reform, not reassurance, because another “near miss” is no longer survivable as a political story or a security strategy.

//The Wire//2300Z April 27, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: MORE DETAILS COME TO LIGHT REGARDING LATEST PRESIDENTIAL ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT IN WASHINGTON. IRANIAN DIPLOMATS MEET WITH RUSSIA REGARDING GULF WAR. IED ATTACKS CONTINUE IN NORTHERN IRELAND.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Russia: This morning Foreign Minister Araghchi arrived in Moscow for talks with President Putin, which are aimed at strengthening the ties between Iran and Russia during the war. This follows the United States calling off the latest round of negotiations, with no firm date for the resumption of talks with Iran.Analyst Comment: This meeting, at this moment, is a big deal. Up until this point, Russia has not actively participated in the war, beyond the fairly standard statements made urging a settlement to the conflict. Most of Russia's comments have focused on the economics of the war, and how this conflict can help them in the long term. Putin directly meeting with Araghchi is a strong diplomatic move that will both strengthen Iran's standing internationally, but also make it much harder for the United States to retain power-projection. The United States calling off negotiations, and Iranian diplomats showing up in Moscow is not an insignificant development in the world of international diplomacy.Northern Ireland: As civil unrest has been brewing for the past few months (being compounded by fuel shortages over the past few weeks), another carbombing was reported overnight outside the police station in Dunmurry, just south of Belfast. No one was injured during the attack, however a police officer was almost killed when the IED was detonated.Analyst Comment: This was a no-kidding carbomb, of the type traditional to the region. Local police state that this is possibly the work of a group calling themselves the "New IRA", which is attempting to utilize the tactics of the PIRA from the era of The Troubles. Some warning was given in advance of the detonation, as police officers were attempting to evacuate the area when the blast occurred, and the official press release by authorities stated that a delivery driver was carjacked and forced to deliver the IED to the police station. This is the second similar incident in as many months, with a nearly identical carbombing taking place in Lurgan last month.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - More details have come to light regarding the shooting at the Washington Hilton Hotel on Saturday. The shooter has been identified as Cole Tomas Allen, who had released a manifesto regarding the attack, which was intended to be an assassination attempt targeting President Trump. His main attack vector took the form of rushing through a Secret Service checkpoint with a shotgun and handgun, before he was engaged. Despite initial reports, the suspect was not killed at the scene, and photos of the aftermath indicate that he might not have been hit at all. A total of 5-8 rounds were fired during the entire engagement, though who fired which rounds remains unclear. One Secret Service agent was shot in the vest at some point during the fray, allegedly by the suspect.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In the wake of the attempted assassination of President Trump, many are questioning how this could have happened again. Not only was this the third attempt on President Trump's life (or the fourth attempt if we count the indictment of Asif Merchant as a proper attempt), but this is the exact same location where Ronald Reagan was also shot during his own assassination attempt in 1981. John Hinkley Jr. shot President Reagan about 30 yards from where Allen conducted his attack.In our present day, the President, Vice President, Speaker of the House, most of the Cabinet, and many other high-ranking officials were in attendance, despite the palpably high threat posture that has remained constant in the wake of the

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down multiple angles of the attempted shooting of President Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday. They discuss their relief that the incident did not turn out far worse, the left's bizarre insistence that the would-be shooter was not political despite his manifesto, and Trump's argument that the threat proves the need for a White House ballroom. Plus, some great news for a good friend of the podcast.First, they breathe a sigh of relief that the attempted shooting of President Trump and other administration officials did not become deadly. Jim explains what the environment is like around White House Correspondents Dinner and the surrounding receptions. They also credit the Secret Service for quickly taking the gunman into custody while examining the serious security concerns exposed by the incident.Next, they focus on the would-be shooter and his manifesto. Jim and Greg are stunned as Barack Obama and others on the left claim the motive was unknown long after the manifesto had already been released.Then they react to President Trump suggesting the White House Correspondents Dinner crisis is the clearest example yet of why a White House ballroom is needed. Democratic Sen. John Fetterman agrees. Jim says the ballroom is a good idea overall but explains why it would not be the proper site for this specific event.Finally, they share a very encouraging health update from columnist and frequent 3 Martini Lunch guest host, Jon Gabriel.Please visit our great sponsors:Pocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.OneSkinTarget the visible signs of aging with OneSking's OS-01 Peptide.

Shots rang out Saturday night at the Washington Hilton as a gunman attempted to crash the White House Correspondents' Association dinner. The alleged attacker, identified as 31-year-old Cole Allen of Torrance, California, was neutralized by Secret Service as he approached a security perimeter located just levels away from President Trump and the First Lady. FOX News Audio White House Correspondent Jared Halpern attended the dinner and joins the Rundown to recap the chaotic moments, the rapid law enforcement response, and the looming questions regarding security protocols at high-profile Washington events.

Episode 2799 - In this wide-ranging and energetically packed episode, Ted and Austin Broer connect a reported Trump assassination attempt, geopolitical fallout from the Iran conflict, natural heart health breakthroughs, institutional fraud exposure, and practical personal finance guidance into a broadcast that moves from urgent political commentary to actionable daily health science without losing stride. The episode opens with Ted and Austin discussing a reported assassination attempt on Donald Trump over the weekend, walking through the detail of a Secret Service agent whose cell phone reportedly stopped a projectile, the attacker's use of a hotel staircase to bypass security protocols, and the media's near-complete failure to cover the story with the seriousness it demands. The conversation connects to the ongoing Epstein file obfuscation, Pam Bondi's release of sensitive information, and the broader pattern of political chaos the hosts frame as deliberate distraction from deeper institutional corruption.
Shots rang out at the White House Correspondents' Dinner — and within 24 hours, the story spiraled into something much bigger.A gunman breached security and got dangerously close to the ballroom where Donald Trump and journalists were gathered, triggering chaos, evacuation, and a major security response.Then came the media aftermath.In a tense interview on 60 Minutes, Trump lashed out after being confronted with excerpts from the suspect's manifesto — including accusations he angrily denied on air.At the same time, he claimed he “wasn't worried” during the shooting, even as Secret Service rushed him to safety.Meanwhile:Trump is pushing for a more secure presidential ballroom after the incidentMedia coverage is already fracturing along familiar linesPolitical narratives are hardening almost instantlySo what actually happened — and how did it turn into another culture war flashpoint overnight?This video breaks down:The timeline of the shootingWhat Trump actually said (and why it's blowing up)How media and political ecosystems are reactingWhat this says about the current state of U.S. politics Hosted on Acast.

On Saturday, a gunman fired shots at the Washington Hilton Hotel, which was hosting the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) dinner. The Secret Service evacuated President Donald Trump and other senior leaders, and none of the guests were injured. One Secret Service officer was shot while engaging the suspect outside the ballroom, but he was wearing a bulletproof vest and was not seriously wounded. The gunman allegedly sent a manifesto to his family before the attack, suggesting that he intended to kill the president and other administration officials. He was charged with using a firearm during a crime of violence and assault on federal officers using a dangerous weapon.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!How Christians think about their politics.I think Americans of various political and religious stripes often forget that we do live in a pluralistic society — one where Christians, or Jews, or Muslims, or atheists inevitably bring their theology to the ballot box or to the policy debate.

Patrick in New York called to ask Mark why the Secret Service didn't shoot the suspect at the WHite Houise Corerespondent's dinner on Saturday? Marco in NJ called Mark to ask him how Erika Kirk was at the Dinner on Saturday because the people there, such as the left-wing media and others, have always rooted against her late husband, Charlie Kirk.
Details about how the gunman at the White House Correspondents' Dinner was able to get his guns and weapons so close to the President and his team paints Secret Service in a very bad light. Multiple sources are telling me, the believe the weapons may have been pre-positioned… hidden in a utility closet before the venue was swept by the United States Secret Service. If that’s true, this isn’t just a breach. It’s a catastrophic security failure at one of the most high-profile events in Washington. And it gets worse. Attendees are describing what they saw firsthand. Security that felt unusually light, less intense than expected for a room filled with top journalists, celebrities, and political power players. So how does something like this even happen? And who’s responsible? But this story goes deeper than security. Because the same voices that have been ramping up violent rhetoric on the left… may no longer be speaking in hypotheticals. We break down how the language has escalated and why what was once dismissed as “just talk”… is now colliding with reality in ways that are impossible to ignore.
A shocking security breach at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner dominated national headlines after an armed suspect attempted to rush a checkpoint at the Washington Hilton, injuring a Secret Service agent and triggering major questions about event security and political violence. Investigators say the suspect, Cole Allen, left behind writings targeting Trump administration officials, sparking renewed debate about public safety, extremist rhetoric, and how high‑profile political events are protected going forward.

Hundreds of journalists demanded that President Trump be confronted forcefully at the White House Correspondents Dinner. And they nearly got their wish. The media’s hatred of this man is really at demonic levels. It's unhinged. And yet, when the gunman attacked, President Trump ordered the Secret Service to protect the journalists. He was deeply concerned about their safety and well-being. And he was determined to stay and resume the program to accommodate the reporters. That notion was quickly dismissed by the Secret Service. But it shows you the heart of this man - a good and decent man who has been maligned by the media and the DC establishment. We thank God once again that he spared the life of our president and our lovely First Lady. And we thank God that he spared the live of the Secret Service agent who was shot. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble and he will protect us from the evil one. But the only people to blame for the current assassination culture in America are the Democrats, and the Legacy Media. Watch the Todd Starnes Show live below.

The Trump attack story is scary enough. The bigger danger is what the government does with it next. Nathan and Chuck break down the attempted attack at the White House Correspondents Dinner, the Washington Hilton security angle, the suspect's manifesto, and why political violence so often becomes fuel for more surveillance, more security theater, and more state power. This is a libertarian look at Trump, political violence, FISA, the Secret Service response, the "No Kings" irony, and why regime change logic almost always ends with the same result: the state gets stronger.

As the left wallows in assassination culture and openly talks about killing Trump, his secruity is revealed to be almost nonexistent. Cole Allen might not have succeeded, but he gave every power on earth opposed to Trump a gift: exposing how lax Trump's security still is. They're now making plans to test it, guaranteed.

After gunshots interrupted the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, attendees including CNBC's Joe Kernen and Eamon Javers recount the evening's turn. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Jay Clayton was also in the room, close enough to the President to be swept off with the Secret Service. Clayton considers the public's and media's role in amplifying hate, and then he discusses the legal proceedings of the week, starting with the feud between Sam Altman and Elon Musk over OpenAI's founding mission as a nonprofit. Plus, CNBC's Dan Murphy is in Dubai with the latest on Iran, and the Senate Banking Committee is scheduled to vote on Kevin Warsh's Fed Chair nomination this week.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – An armed man attempted to assassinate the President of the United States as he attended the White House Correspondents Association gala over the weekend. The attacker was captured after firing off a few rounds outside the ballroom. His family said he shared a manifesto with them moments before launching the attack. His writing in the email, as well as his lengthy social media history, show him obsessed with hatred of Donald Trump and parroting lies and slogans prevalent among Democrat politicians and activists.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast All the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com
An assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner turned what is usually a choreographed, slightly self-congratulatory night into something much more serious, very quickly. I had been at the Washington Hilton earlier, and what stood out in retrospect was how ordinary the setup felt. Security was clearly tight around the ballroom itself, but the rest of the hotel operated like a normal venue, with people moving in and out of the lobby without much friction. That gap matters, because it helps explain how someone armed could even get close enough to force a response from Secret Service. He never reached the inner event, but the fact that he got as far as he did cuts through the illusion that these environments are fully locked down.It's tough to dismiss this as a one-off. The rhetoric outside the event was already intense, with protesters framing politics in absolute, existential terms. When that becomes the baseline, it is not surprising that someone eventually acts on it. This is not the first attempt tied to Trump, and unfortunately, it wouldn't surprise me if it weren't the last. Even if the immediate danger was contained, the pattern itself is the more unsettling part, because it suggests a level of volatility that is not going away anytime soon.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

Because of the lockdown around the Hilton, a lot of people never made it over, so the party had this strange half full energy. Plenty of space, plenty of chatter, but also the sense that something had already gone off script for the night. That mood did not last long, because it quickly turned into its own kind of spectacle when Michael Tracy confronted Julie K. Brown over claims about Epstein related reporting.What followed felt less like a serious dispute and more like a live action version of internet drama. Voices went up, Jim Acosta jumped in loudly, and suddenly a party conversation turned into a full scene with security stepping in. Tracy was eventually asked to leave, and that was that. Compared to what had just happened across town, it was trivial, but it also captured something real about the media world, where personal grudges and public arguments can spill over at any moment. Taken together, the night swung between genuinely dangerous and strangely ridiculous, which feels like a pretty accurate snapshot of the current political environment.Chapters00:00 - Intro01:23 - Trump Assassination Attempt06:29 - Substack Party This is a public episode.

The C.O.W.S. host Gus T. Renegade provides an in depth counter-racist analysis of the FBI files on 3rd generation physician and author of the The Isis Papers Dr. Frances Cress Welsing. The Counter Intelligence Program of the FBI was specifically dedicated to neutralizing any attempted counter-racist effort and to prevent the ascension of a "black messiah" who could constructively organize a sizable number of Victims of White Supremacy to Produce Justice. It seems some of the most powerful enforcement officials in the world thought Dr. Frances Cress Welsing was an "extreme threat" who could possibly be that "messiah." We'll examine when the FBI began monitoring Dr. Welsing - which was years before her 1975 termination from Howard University, how they observed her activity, and who in the FBI was interested in the works of a little known 3rd generation black psychiatrist in her 30s. Gus T. obtained these records via a Freedom of Information Request. The bureau agreed that based on his 31 interviews with Dr. Welsing and repeat discussions with Dr. Kenneth O'Reilly, who authored Racial Matters: The FBI's Secret Files on Black America from 1960-1972, Gus is a Subject Matter Expert, uniquely qualified to analyze these documents. #Facts Importantly, the FBI's surveillance of Dr. Welsing extends well beyond 1972. FBI documents indicate that there were "informants" present to spy on a 1973 talk given by Dr. Welsing with merely 13 people present - that's including the fink. #KeysToTheColors #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
Well, would you look at that?! Another week has weeked and now we have highlights from the past week! Welcome to a brand new episode of the Chris Moyles Show on Radio X Podcast!This week Gemma Arterton and Rafe Spall pop in to chat about their new ITV drama Secret Service, where Gemma plays a spy and Rafe doesn't. They also chat about Greggs, accents, and why Quantum of Solace is rubbish. Sorry Gemma. Find out how the team did attempting (and blatantly just copying a popular TV show) their very own version of Last One Laughing. One rule… no laughing. Polly brought her pickles and Chris whipped out his puppet. Spoiler, there was some laughing. Chris was super nonchalant with Leeds United's victory over Manchester United. Certainly didn't rub it in Executive Producer Aaron's face whatsoever. And the Head Producer of SNLUK, James Longman, joined the show to chat about the series and finally put to bed, is he Aarons TV 'fwend'… You think that's it? Think again!
