The vehicle kill switch may be getting another chance to be killed in Congress this week as a member of the House Rules Committee wants to repeal legislation that directs automakers to install surveillance technology on all new vehicles starting in 2027. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas,opens in a new tab a committee member and influential congressman on the conservative House Freedom Caucus, says the Biden-era mandate poses “a direct threat to our Fourth Amendment rights.” “Republicans should not be continuing a blatantly invasive Biden-era policy that enables round-the-clock monitoring of Americans in their own cars,” Roy told The Daily Signal while the possibility of the amendment was still being discussed

The latest controversy hovering over liberal comedian Jimmy Kimmel is leaving a sour taste among those in ABC's orbit. Kimmel is under fire yet again, this time for a poorly-timed joke he made targeting President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump just two days before Saturday's shocking assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) Dinner, where the Trumps and nearly the entire Cabinet were located.
On his own program, the late-night host depicted his own version of the WHCA Dinner where he emceed the annual gala, and leveled several jabs at both the president and first lady.

Cole Tomas Allen, the gunman who tried to murder President Donald Trump and other senior officials at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner on Saturday, is the latest would-be assassin whose radicalization owes less to the juvenile rantings of left-wing influencers than to the everyday rhetoric of mainstream Democrats and media figures.
Many have pointed out that just days before the failed assassination, the New York Times hosted a roundtable discussion in which radical left-wing pundits Hasan Piker and Jia Tolentino endorsed shoplifting and other crimes while expressing sympathy for Luigi Mangione, the gunman accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Piker is a beefcake moron who hates America and routinely
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) attacked White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt for criticizing Democrats for their violent rhetoric after a shooting took place in the vicinity of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner at the Washington Hilton Hotel.
During a press conference on Monday, Jeffries labeled Leavitt a “stone-cold liar,” and accused her of reading “talking points” and being critical of words Democrats had said.
“I know you said you stand by your comment, but at the same time you have been a subject of threats as well, so, with respect to this comment about maximum warfare, even if it’s about redistricting, why not tone down the language
Hearings on Virginia’s Tuesday redistricting special election began Monday with the fate of four additional Democratic congressional seats hinging on whether the state’s 45-day early voting period constitutes an ongoing election.
Following the hearing, former Virginia Attorney General and head of the Election Transparency Initiative, Ken Cuccinelli, laid out the current and potential future cases before the Virginia Supreme Court that are challenging the state’s attempt to gerrymander its congressional map in favor of Democrats as the midterm elections approach.
Cuccinelli said there are four constitutional challenges focused on how the amendment was passed and two statutory challenges alleging the vote should be invalidated.

John Hinckley Jr., the man who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan outside the Washington Hilton in 1981, has weighed in on Saturday’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, which took place at the same hotel.
Speaking to TMZ, Hinckley said the recent shooting attempt was “spooky” because it occurred at the same venue where he carried out his 1981 attack.
Hinckley stated that the Washington Hilton “is not secure” and urged the hotel to stop hosting major high-profile events “because bad things keep happening there.”
She wrapped up what she thought was going to be her final press briefing on Friday, as she was scheduled to go on maternity leave. After Saturday night’s assassination attempt by a crazed leftist against President Trump and his cabinet members at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, however, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt felt that Monday was too important a day to stay home. It would be nice to rest up on the couch and prepare for her soon-to-be-born baby, but instead, she brought her usual fire to the podium and blasted the Left for their incendiary rhetoric. Asked what the administration could do to bring down the temperature

WASHINGTON — The suspected White House Correspondents Dinner shooter Cole Allen was charged with trying to assassinate President Trump on Saturday night — as he made a defiant first appearance in court.
The 31-year-old accused madman spoke loudly and confidently answering a judge’s questions in federal court in Washington, DC, as he was hit with the charges of attempted assassination of the president, transportation of a firearm across state lines to commit a felony and discharging a gun.
He faces life in prison if convicted of the top charge.
Allen — who walked into the courtroom unshackled with a somber look and wearing a blue jail jumpsuit — answered
Sen. Bernie Sanders, the oldest living foreign influence operation, certainly in the Senate, is at it again. Lately, Sanders has gotten attention for talking about AI, even though he knows as much about AI or anything technological, as I do about making millions of dollars without ever working for a living.
What was Bernie’s AI endgame? With Bernie, it’s best to start by asking two questions about anything he supports. 1. What’s in it for Bernie? 2. How does it help America’s Communist and Islamist enemies undermine the United States? Question two is being answered.

CNN postponed “The Imperial Presidency,” a documentary from host Fareed Zakaria, after Saturday night’s attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.
California teacher Cole Allen is expected to appear in court Monday afternoon to face charges of discharging a firearm while committing a violent crime and assaulting federal officers. Zakaria announced the program’s delay from its planned Sunday 9:00 p.m. ET airtime in an X post hours before it was set to run. “[A]n update: My latest [CNN] documentary, ‘The Imperial Presidency,’ will air at a later date. We will keep you posted,” Zakaria wrote in the post. In the documentary, Zakaria will examine “the steady expansion of presidential power
Saturday night should’ve been one of those smug little DC rituals where the media dresses up, congratulates itself, and pretends it’s the brave guardian of democracy. Instead, President Trump had to be rushed out of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner after a gunman opened fire at the Washington Hilton, wounding a Secret Service agent who was saved by his protective vest. Trump, Melania, JD Vance, and cabinet officials were unharmed, and the suspect is 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen from California. Yet another left-wing, violent nutbag, hell-bent on assassinating Trump. He was taken into custody.
But this crazy story doesn’t end with the liberal shooter. It’s actually part of a much bigger
Democrats faced tough questioning before the Virginia Supreme Court on Monday during oral arguments on a redistricting referendum that narrowly passed last week, though most of the justices were oddly quiet.
Republicans have challenged the referendum, which paved the way for the Dems to pick up as many as four local congressional seats — potentially leaving them with a 10-to-one margin over GOPers — arguing that the Democrat-led General Assembly flouted procedural rules to get it on the ballot.
A constitutional amendment was needed to put it to voters — and state lawmakers have to approve a resolution in two consecutive legislative sessions, with an election in between, to do so.

Accused White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman Cole Allen sent a sprawling, crazed manifesto to family members 10 minutes before Saturday’s attack, sources told The Post.
In the 1,052-word missive obtained by The Post Sunday morning — signed Cole ‘coldForce’ ‘Friendly Federal Assassin’ Allen” — and outlined his “rules of engagement” for the shooting and stated he believed it was his righteous duty to target administration officials.
Cole Allen’s manifesto in full:
Hello everybody!
So I may have given a lot of people a surprise today. Let me start off by apologizing to everyone whose trust I abused.

President Trump on Sunday evening blasted ’60 Minutes’ anchor Norah O’Donnell for reading portions of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter’s manifesto.
A heavily armed man stormed the lobby of the Washington Hilton Saturday night, sprinted past a Secret Service checkpoint and shot at a Secret Service agent.
The shooter, identified as Cole Allen, 31, of Torrence, California, was taken into custody and charged with using a firearm during a crime of violence and assaulting a federal officer with a dangerous weapon.
On Sunday it was revealed that Cole Allen wrote a manifesto and expressed his hatred for “pedophile, rapist” Trump.
Saturday, following reports of an apparent assassination attempt on President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, CNN’s Van Jones raised the possibility of the suspect being made into “some sort of hero.”
The left-leaning Jones cited efforts to lionize Luigi Mangione, and he urged all to condemn political violence.
Jones said, “I’m starting to worry about something, though, which is that the shooter survived, which means on Monday he’s going to court, which means there is a danger that people try to make him some sort of hero. You watch what happened with Luigi [Mangione], who shot a CEO to death and somehow became a hero.
Former President Barack Obama claimed Sunday “details about the motives” of accused White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter Cole Allen were still unknown despite the gunman confessing he was targeting top Trump officials in a raving manifesto.
“Although we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind last night’s shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, it’s incumbent upon all of us to reject the idea that violence has any place in our democracy,” Obama wrote on X Sunday afternoon.
“It’s also a sobering reminder of the courage and sacrifice that U.S. Secret Service Agents show every day. I’m grateful to them –
Suspected White House Correspondents' Dinner shooter Cole Tomas Allen is facing at least three charges, authorities said.
Allen, 31, is accused of opening fire as the President gathered with senior cabinet members and thousands of journalists for the annual event on Saturday night.
The dinner at the Washington Hilton was barely underway when the Secret Service was forced to leap into action after a series of shots rang out. They managed to apprehend the suspect after he breached a security checkpoint and exchanged gunfire with law enforcement, authorities said.
The alleged shooter has since been identified as Allen, a teacher from Torrance, California.

The growing numbers of Muslims in the United Kingdom, along with their organized and issue-driven politics, has made them an increasingly consequential – if not outsizes – part of the country's electorate – representing new challenges for Prime Minister Keir Starmer's center-left government and efforts to maintain a unified stance on key issues.
Recent elections have shown the country's estimated 4 million people, or roughly 6.5% of the country's overall population, have been enough to determine electoral outcomes in specific districts and nudge national parties to re-calibrate their platforms.

The suspected White House Correspondents' Association Dinner shooter, Cole Tomas Allen, signal boosted posts on the left-wing social media platform Bluesky arguing that President Donald Trump should be "immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes" and criticizing a "Freedom of the Press" pocket square that many journalists donned at last night’s dinner as "a white flag that no one can read unless you pull it out and wave it in defeat," a Washington Free Beacon review found, suggesting he thought a stronger message of opposition to the president was called for.

WASHINGTON — First lady Melania Trump savagely criticized ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel as a “coward” Monday after he referred to her as “an expectant widow” two days before Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting. “Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America,” Trump, 56, wrote in a post on X. The comic is facing severe backlash after the attack on the gala dinner, in which a Secret Service agent suffered minor injuries after a gunman charged a checkpoint
Democratic voters in Utah’s 1st Congressional District will still have a long ballot come June. Four candidates are headed to the primary after party delegates chose their picks on Saturday. It took five rounds of voting for Liban Mohamed to eke out a majority. He managed to secure 51.5% of the delegate vote at Jordan High School in Sandy. “A majority of Democrats in Utah have made their decision, and their decision is that it's our time to lead,” Mohammed said after results were announced shortly before 8 p.m. “It's progressives’ time to lead. It's the working class's time to
TORRANCE, California — The FBI raided the home of suspected White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman Cole Allen late Saturday after swarming the property in the quiet Los Angeles suburbs.
Allen, a 31-year-old CalTech mechanical engineering grad, was subdued after he rushed a security checkpoint and opened fire with a shotgun inside the Washington Hilton during the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday evening, according to law enforcement sources.
An FBI convoy, including armored trucks and agents clad in camouflage tactical gear, descended onto Allen’s home in Torrance, Calif. late Saturday night — hours after The Post arrived on the scene. observed that occupants briefly interacted with federal agents
The DC Metropolitan Police announced during a press conference on Saturday night that the armed gunman who opened fire inside the White House Correspondents’ Dinner was a registered guest at the Washington Hilton hotel, the venue hosting the high-profile black-tie event attended by President Donald Trump.
Speaking after the event, interim DC Police Chief Jeffery Carroll confirmed the suspect, 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California, had checked into the hotel as a guest before the chaos erupted.
President Donald Trump survived two assassination attempts during the 2024 election, and Saturday night he was whisked away again from another lethal threat when a heavily armed gunman briefly breached a security checkpoint at one of Washington's most famous black-tie galas and exchanged gunfire before being subdued by the Secret Service.
But Trump would not recoil.
First he wanted to return to the White House Correspondents' Dinner before it was canceled, hoping to send a signal to a nation gripped by political vitriol and shaken by recent assassinations — from Charlie Kirk to Minnesota legislators – that “sick people” cannot “change the fabric” of the United States.
