Podcast appearances and mentions of Washington Hilton

Proverbs 18:10 reminds believers that true security is found not in human strength or earthly protection, but in the presence and power of God. In this devotional, Whitney Hopler reflects on a frightening experience in Washington, D.C., where heightened police activity and danger created anxiety rather than peace. Yet in the middle of uncertainty, prayer shifted her focus from fear to God’s protection and brought a deep sense of peace. This devotional encourages Christians to run to God first whenever fear, uncertainty, or danger arise. Like the fortified towers in biblical times, God’s presence provides refuge, strength, and safety for His people. While difficult circumstances may not immediately disappear, believers can trust that God remains sovereign, powerful, and near in every situation. Through prayer, we gain access to the only security that never fails. Highlights God is the ultimate source of safety and protection. Earthly security often cannot provide lasting peace. Prayer connects believers directly to God’s unlimited power. Proverbs 18:10 compares God’s name to a fortified tower. Running to God means trusting Him in fearful situations. God’s peace can calm anxiety even when circumstances remain difficult. Believers can confidently rely on God’s presence during uncertainty and danger. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Full Transcript Below: Run to God for Security By: Whitney Hopler Bible Reading: “The name of the LORD is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.” – Proverbs 18:10, NIV While my husband Russ and I drove home from watching the musical “1776” at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, D.C., we were surprised to see that many of the streets we had planned to take were blocked by a massive police presence. We found ourselves caught in a maze of detours trying to get around the White House. The more we drove, the more alarmed we became. Police officers were everywhere, racing by in cruisers with sirens blaring and red and blue lights flashing. They were also standing outside, with their guns in full view, talking urgently on radios. I checked the news on my phone while Russ drove, and discovered that a man armed with guns and knives had breached security at the Washington Hilton and opened fire during the White House correspondents’ dinner. That was the same hotel where President Ronald Reagan had been wounded in an act of violence decades before. Earlier in history, President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in the same theater where we had just seen the show. Despite all the armed officers surrounding us, I didn’t feel protected. Instead, the abundance of weapons and the high-speed maneuvers made me feel insecure and unsafe. So, I prayed for protection – for us in our car, for all the officers and people at the correspondents’ dinner, and for everyone else in the area. Then I felt a strong sense of peace settle on me. I finally felt secure because I knew I could trust God for my ultimate safety, and I experienced God’s peace. Proverbs 18:10 points out that calling on God’s name through prayer is a powerful way to find safety. It compares God to a fortified tower we can run to. In biblical times, fortified towers were at the core of a city’s defense. Those towers were built with thick stones and placed on the highest ground. When an enemy invaded, the people would abandon their vulnerable houses and run to the tower for protection. The verse says the “name of the Lord” is like a strong tower. When we run to God by calling on his name through prayer, we’re connecting with the source of all power! There is no limit to God’s power. So, God is much stronger than any dangerous situation we’ll ever face in this fallen world. You can run to God’s protection anytime and anywhere you need it, just by calling on God’s name when you pray. When you’re facing scary circumstances in your life – like an alarming health diagnosis or conflict in a relationship that’s important to you – you may feel trapped in a dangerous place, as I did in Washington, D.C. that night. But when you pray, you can run through the doors of God’s protection. Notice that the verse says “the righteous run to it and are safe.” That doesn’t mean that the danger around you will stop. But God, who is much more powerful than the danger, will be present with you right in the middle of danger. All you have to do is call on the name of the Lord, and God will answer your prayer by helping you. God gives you the ultimate security. It doesn’t depend on how many police officers are in your neighborhood or how many locks are on your door. God’s security is based on the reality that God has unlimited power, so nothing can break through his protective barriers. Whenever you feel unsafe, run to God in prayer just like you would run to a strong tower for protection. Then you’ll find the security that only God can give you! Intersecting Faith & Life: As you consider why it’s important to run to God for security, reflect on these questions: When you feel afraid or anxious, what’s the very first thing you usually do to try to feel safe? Why do you think human security (like money, locks, or even the police) sometimes fails to give us true peace of mind? What does it mean to you to run to God’s name in the middle of a challenging or dangerous situation? When has God answered your prayers for protection in the past? How did you experience God’s peace in those situations? What circumstances are you facing right now where you need God’s protection?

The decision mandates a higher burden of proof for voting discrimination, making it harder to challenge maps.

Weapons: Authorities recovered a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun, a Rock Island Armory 1911 .38-caliber pistol, and three knives. Premeditation: Investigators found that Allen traveled by train from Los Angeles to Washington D.C., checking into the hotel on April 24. Minutes before the attack, he sent a note to his family outlining his intent to target administration officials. Was this staged? Inconsistencies in CCTV footage appear tampered.

One week ago, the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner in Washington, D.C., was cut short by a harrowing assassination attempt. President Trump, attending the annual event for the first time in his presidency, was rushed to safety by the Secret Service alongside members of his Cabinet and various lawmakers. The suspect, 31-year-old California teacher and engineer Cole Allen, faces charges of attempted assassination after allegedly rushing past a magnetometer and opening fire outside the Washington Hilton ballroom. While one Secret Service agent was struck, he was fortunately saved by his bulletproof vest and is currently recovering. In the wake of this security breach, major questions are being asked: How did this happen, and how can we protect the President at future high-profile events? Earlier this week, Charles Marino—a former Secret Service Supervisory Special Agent and DHS Advisor—joined host Dave Anthony to break down the tactical failures of that evening and the urgent changes needed to Secret Service protocols. Marino explained the challenges of keeping a President safe and what needs to be done at future, large events.

But unlike last year, when the entire GOP responded to the killing of Charlie Kirk by attempting a broad civil-society crackdown, this time Republicans have a somewhat different focus: Helping Trump get his palace ballroom built on White House grounds?In this episode, Matt and Brian discuss:* Are false flag conspiracy theories coming back into vogue on the left because it's taboo to point out that Trump makes politics angrier and more violent?* Is it more that everyone knows Trump's character is so poor that he would fake an attempt on his life to gain political advantage?* Are lesser forms of radicalism justified in response to his affronts, or is it all counterproductive?Then, what the f&ck has any of this got to do with the White House ballroom? Will Republicans bully Democrats into authorizing its construction? Will Republicans bite the bullet and finance the ballroom through budget reconciliation? Can we trust any Democratic presidential candidate who won't commit to demolishing the ballroom? And what was the White House Correspondents' Association thinking by extending an invitation to a president who wants to destroy journalism as a vocation?All that, plus the full Politix archive are available to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.Further reading:* Brian argues politics in America are unusually violent not just because of Trump's words, but because he governs like a tyrant, and oppression swells the ranks of indivdiuals who choose to take matters into their own hands. * Matt argues that lowering prices is a better approach to public anger than (e.g.) “microlooting.”* A Manhattan Institute survey found that 46 percent of Democrats believe “the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in July 2024 was orchestrated by his supporters to increase sympathy for him.”

Today's Headlines: Cole Tomas Allen was charged in federal court with attempting to assassinate President Trump plus two gun charges — more charges may be coming, and conviction alone could mean life in prison. Trump, meanwhile, has pivoted from brief media civility straight back to ballroom obsession, with Lindsey Graham leading the charge to get Congress to approve $400 million in taxpayer money for a White House ballroom-and-bunker — never mind that it wouldn't hold half as many people as the Washington Hilton it's meant to replace. The National Trust for Historic Preservation told the DOJ to go pound sand and is keeping its lawsuit blocking construction. Trump is also back gunning for Jimmy Kimmel's job over a joke that Melania has the glow of "an expectant widow" — Karoline Leavitt backed him up at the podium, Melania tweeted at Disney to "take a stand," and all of this happened four days after the joke aired. On the Iran front, Iranian officials sent a new proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz with either a long-term ceasefire or full peace deal, while punting nuclear negotiations to later — the White House hadn't responded as of this recording, and Iran's foreign minister was in Moscow meeting with Putin. King Charles is visiting Trump, with British officials doing everything possible to keep Charles out of Trump's infamous armchair photo sessions. Journalist Katie Phang sued acting AG Todd Blanche for failing to release the Epstein files as required by law — she's not seeking damages, just the documents the law already mandates. Gateway Computers founder and Ghislaine Maxwell ex-boyfriend Ted Waitt — the man who brought her as his plus-one to Chelsea Clinton's wedding — is testifying before Congress about his Epstein ties. Ron DeSantis proposed a Florida congressional map creating 24 Republican districts and just 4 Democratic ones, directly violating the Fair Districts Amendments that 63% of Floridians voted into their state constitution, and the legislature immediately scheduled a special session to ram it through. And Paramount filed an FCC petition requesting that foreign investors from Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar be allowed to indirectly own over 50% of the company post-merger — and asked for up to 100% foreign ownership approval for "future investments."

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:

The setting was the same as it's always been: the elegant ballroom in the basement of the Washington Hilton. There, the president, vice president and other high-ranking officials gathered with around 2500 guests to celebrate freedom of speech. But instead of being a light-hearted gala as it had been in the past, fear and pandemonium soon reigned. The White House Correspondents Association dinner on Saturday marked the third time since the summer of 2024 that a gunman was able to get dangerously close to now-president Donald Trump. Was security to blame? And what were the gunman's motives?

On this episode of Fox Across America, Jimmy Failla addresses a viral “hot mic” clip where he was pointing out the laxed security at the White House Correspondents' Dinner about an hour before a shooting occurred. Co-founder and CEO of The Federalist Sean Davis gives his take on whether ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel deserves to be canned following a tasteless joke about first lady Melania Trump.

The surreal nature of Saturday night at the Washington Hilton has left the country in a state of collective dismay. In this episode, co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman analyze the intersection of political violence, the erosion of load-bearing institutions, and the ethical crossroads facing people of conscience. The conversation centers on the manifesto of the thirty-one year old alleged assailant. The hosts explore the rational or extreme moral arguments used to justify such actions. They delve into the widows fantasy and the psychological impact of living under an administration that many experience as an abusive relationship. The discussion also highlights a neo-feudal shift in Washington which includes the literal and metaphorical distance created by top secret bunkers and the removal of authoritarian agents from the general population. Finally, the hosts reflect on the persecution of the good guys and whether the social contract can ever be restored. Support us at ⁠Patreon.com/muckrakepodcast⁠.

//The Wire//2300Z April 28, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: WAR IN LEBANON CONTINUES DESPITE CEASEFIRE. PIRACY ACTIVITY COMPLICATES MERCHANT TRAFFIC IN THE GULF OF ADEN, THREAT LEVEL ELEVATED. SOMALI DAYCARES RAIDED IN MINNEAPOLIS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----  -International Events-Lebanon: The war continues as before, with Hezbollah conducting FPV drone strikes on Israeli armor, which are continuing their clearance operations in southern Lebanon.Analyst Comment: The ceasefire between these two belligerents being such a sticking point with the Iranian talks has not really resulted in a cessation of the war. At best, the Israelis have slowed down the bombing within downtown Beirut, but otherwise this war continues on.Red Sea/HOA: As the tenuous situation continues in the Persian Gulf, the Somalis have begun to increase hijacking attempts targeting commercial vessels in the vicinity of the Gulf of Aden. Last week, Somali pirates boarded and hijacked an unidentified tanker vessel, directing the vessel to Somalia's territorial waters. Overnight, another hijacking was reported as the M/V SWARD was hijacked in a similar manner, with the vessel being taken to the pirate strongholds along the eastern coast of the country. After these two hijacking incidents, another piracy attempt was reported today, to the east, farther off the coast. Separately, a local Somali fishing boat was hijacked by Somali pirates last week, and an attempted boarding was reported in the same area.Analyst Comment: Piracy activity in the Gulf of Aden has been a mainstay for decades. However, now that many shipping routes are skewed due to the Gulf War, piracy activity has increased over the past few weeks. Two successful hijackings and several other attempted hijacking operations taking place within just a few days is noteworthy, especially for the companies attempting to adjust to the radical changes to maritime shipping brought on by the war. As a result the UKMTO has elevated the threat to SUBSTANTIAL for the Somali Basin and the Somali Coast.-HomeFront-Minnesota: This morning the FBI conducted raids at several Somali daycare facilities in Minneapolis, many of which were at the center of previous fraud scandals. The Quality Learing Center was among the list of sites where evidence was collected, and around a dozen facilities in total were the target of the raids. The city of Minneapolis was not a part of the raid, and went out of their way to distance themselves from the federal investigations into these facilities.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Not many details have emerged regarding the Washington Hilton assassination attempt, beyond what was immediately published the day of the shooting. The shooter's home in Torrance, California was raided on Sunday, but no disclosures have been made regarding whether or not anything was found. One of the major intelligence gaps (at least in the public sphere) is whether or not the suspect was communicating with anyone else before the attack. Some indications are present that he was talking to family members (who knew he possessed violent intent), but it is not known if the suspect was coordinating or communicating with anyone online, specifically to plan the attack. Most of the high-profile targeting efforts observed over the past few years (not just the Trump assassination attempts, but the Kirk assassination and the sniper attacks on ICE facilities) have involved the shooters having an extensive online presence, which in most cases indicated some level of communication with others. In this case, Allen survived the attack, so his testimony is at least available, and more time will be needed to determine if anyone else was involved in the planning phases of the attack.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground

In this hard-hitting episode of The Joe Concha Show, Joe tackles the harrowing aftermath of the attempted mass shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, where a heavily armed gunman targeted President Trump and his top cabinet members. Joe holds nothing back as he calls out the mainstream media and late-night comedians for fueling political violence, taking direct aim at Jimmy Kimmel for dubbing Melania Trump an "expectant widow" just days before the attack. Joe breaks down the catastrophic security failures at the Washington Hilton, questions the insanity of Trump facing three assassination attempts in just 21 months, and slams the left for glorifying violent criminals. Finally, Joe dissects President Trump's fiery 60 Minutes clash with Norah O'Donnell and his defiant demand to reschedule the dinner to show American resilience. Learn more about your ad choices.

To miał być jeden z najbardziej prestiżowych wieczorów w Waszyngtonie – doroczna kolacja korespondentów Białego Domu. Na sali ponad 2600 osób: dziennikarze, politycy, przedstawiciele administracja, prezydent Donald Trump z pierwszą damą. I nagle strzały. W tym odcinku Lidia Krawczuk i Paweł Żuchowski opowiadają dokładnie, co wydarzyło się w hotelu Washington Hilton. Jak wyglądało wejście na wydarzenie chronione przez United States Secret Service, co działo się przed salą balową i przy bramkach bezpieczeństwa a potem na samej sali. Lidia i Paweł opowiadają też o tym, co dzieje się w głowie, kiedy słyszysz „shooter” i nie wiesz, co za chwilę się wydarzy.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" gives a first look to the stories you need to know to start your day including shocking new details about Cole Allen, the gunman at the White House Correspondents' Dinner as his manifesto reveals a targeted attack on Trump officials and raises serious questions about security failures at the Washington Hilton; growing calls for change as Trump pushes for a secure White House ballroom to prevent future threats; and backlash mounting after Jimmy Kimmel mocked Melania Trump just days before the incident, fueling debate over media rhetoric and political violence, and much more.

Another attempt was made on President Trump's life this weekend after a would-be assassin charged through a security perimeter at the Washington Hilton, where the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner was taking place. One Secret Service agent was shot in his protective vest and not seriously injured, before the suspect was stopped and arrested by law enforcement. We break down all the tense moments, and ask if that White House Ballroom could be finished already. On a much lighter note, the big race at Talladega this weekend had plenty of action. We look at the big crash and the first-time winner. Comedian and podcaster Theo Vonn gets serious about his faith, and the transformation that comes with it. Producer Speedy accidentally stares at a woman that was feeding her baby.

It's happened once again folks! A security perimeter of President Trump was breached! When will this end!? Cole Allen, the California man who stormed the lobby of the Washington Hilton on Saturday night and opened fire at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, was arraigned in federal court in DC this afternoon.Allen was hit with a total of 3 charges: Attempting to assassinate the president of the United States, transporting a firearm and ammunition with intent to commit a felony and discharging a firearm during a crime of violence. Where is all this hatred and violence coming from? Just days before this incident, Jimmy Kimmel was back at it with his hatful rhetoric of talking about Trump being killed and Melania becoming a 'widow.'

Patrick Bet-David, Tom Ellsworth, Adam Sosnick, and Vincent Oshana break down the attempted assassination at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, where 31-year-old California teacher Cole Allen stormed the Washington Hilton armed with a shotgun, handgun, and knives — sending a 1,052-word "Friendly Federal Assassin" manifesto to his family just 10 minutes before the attack ranking Trump officials as targets — while Obama claimed the motive was "unknown" despite the raving anti-Trump manifesto; and the eerie, now-unavoidable question surrounding Jimmy Kimmel, who just days before the shooting called Melania Trump an "expectant widow" on national television.------

After law enforcement officers halted a gunman from rushing the Washington Hilton ballroom where President Trump, members of the cabinet, congressional leaders and journalists convened to celebrate the First Amendment and White House correspondents, President Donald J. Trump speaks with Norah O'Donnell in a broadcast exclusive about the experience and what it signals about the state of the country. O'Donnell meets Mr. Trump at the White House for an in-depth conversation. Former Senator Ben Sasse, a conservative Republican from Nebraska – and once among the most popular politicians in the state – speaks with correspondent Scott Pelley about his battle with pancreatic cancer and his hopes for what America can be. Reflecting on politics, community, technology, and faith, Sasse offers meaningful lessons from his own life in hopes of building a better tomorrow. What Kentucky is to thoroughbred horses, Belgium is to elite racing pigeons. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi reports as prizes in international competitions have climbed into the millions, the best birds have become targets for organized crime. Insiders call the network of break-in artists and smugglers “the pigeon mafia.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, former President Barack Obama chimes in on social media saying the motive behind the shooting outside the White House Correspondents' Dinner remains unclear, even as investigators review writings from the suspect outlining plans to target President Trump and members of his administration. DC Police have identified the suspect as 31-year-old Cole Allen of California, who allegedly opened fire at the Washington Hilton during the annual event attended by Trump and senior administration officials. Federal law enforcement officials confirmed to Fox News Digital that after Allen's arrest, he said he intended to target Trump administration officials and had prepared a manifesto detailing his intent, while also sharing anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric on social media.

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. Elsewhere on the show, Megan Thee Stallion confirmed she is officially single after ending her relationship with NBA star Klay Thompson, citing trust, fidelity, and respect as non‑negotiables, a breakup that played out publicly as she powered through an emotional Broadway performance in Moulin Rouge!.

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.

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.
