Just one day after the Supreme Court of Virginia (SCOVA) heard oral arguments about the legality of the legislative process used by Democrat lawmakers to get last week's redistricting/gerrymandering referendum in front of voters, the court on Tuesday shut down efforts by Attorney General Jay Jones to certify the results of that referendum.
At the heart of Tuesday's order was the RNC v. Koski case, which RedState's Jennifer Oliver O'Connell reported on last week.
On Wednesday afternoon, Tazewell Circuit Court Judge Jack Hurley Jr. ruled that Tuesday's referendum is unconstitutional and issued an injunction preventing the certification of the election maps.

There is a pattern now. Not an accident. Not a coincidence. A pattern.
Say something reckless, watch the temperature rise, act surprised when something breaks—and then, because apparently nothing was learned, do it again.
If that sounds harsh, just look at what happened this week.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said something that shouldn’t even be controversial: rhetoric matters. When people in positions of power constantly frame their opponents as existential threats or enemies, they aren’t calming anything down. They’re pouring fuel on it. That’s just reality.
But instead of taking the hint—maybe dialing things back even a notch—House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries went the other direction entirely. He leaned in.

In their attempt to get President Donald Trump killed, Democrats are hitting zero. You might think that’s a glib way to put it, but how else can you explain the repeated attempts to inspire someone to kill the president and the deflated “we have to condemn all political violence” that inevitably follows? It’s performance art – they have to pretend to be shocked that someone acted on what they’d been openly hinting they’d like to have happen, because otherwise the next person might not be inspired by their rhetoric to pick up the mantle and try to finish the job.
I realize I’m a cynical person – always have been,

Greg Gutfeld absolutely nailed it when he talked about Cole Allen, the suspect arrested for the third failed assassination attempt on President Trump.
Allen's manifesto made it very clear that he was targeting the President and members of his Cabinet. Despite the Left insisting there isn't violent rhetoric coming from their side, it's a problem.
And Greg Gutfeld spelled it out perfectly. [Tweet, video] (Snip) "I disagree with Jessie. This guy did hear voices. They were Tim Walz's, they were Ted Lieu's, they were Brandon Johnson's, they were CNN's, they were 'The View,' they were MS NOW,"

If former FBI Director James Comey thought he was out of legal trouble, think again: he has just been indicted by the Justice Department. Details are limited, but this is happening, with Fox News reporting that it originates from his 2025 Instagram post, in which he seemingly called for the assassination of President Donald Trump, who avoided another incident at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner on Saturday. Cole Allen, 31, attempted to storm the Washington Hilton ballroom with a shotgun and other weapons, aiming to target Trump and his top officials.
In a social media post, Comey took a picture of ‘8647’ in seashells,

Less than 24 hours after a gunman tried to breach the Washington Hilton during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the Department of Justice sent a blunt message to the lawyers blocking construction of the president’s proposed White House ballroom: drop the lawsuit, or the government will move to end it for you.
The letter, dated April 26, was signed by Brett Shumate, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Division, and addressed to Greg Craig of Foley Hoag LLP, outside counsel for the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Craig served as White House Counsel under Barack Obama and as Clinton’s personal defense lawyer during the 1990s impeachment proceedings.

The law enforcement reaction to the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting is getting a lot of scrutiny.
One of the questions many seemed to have was: why was Vice President JD Vance rushed out of the room before President Donald Trump was? You can see that here, in a post from Fox's Jacqui Heinrich. [Tweet, video]
Here's what White House correspondent for Diario ABC, David Alandete, said about the events. [Tweet, video]
I was right there. I saw everything.
The reason JD Vance left earlier through a different door from Trump's is that he was alone.

It happened again: a deranged leftist, Cole Allen, fueled by hate, came too close to assassinating President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner on Saturday night.
Allen, who lives in Torrance, California, is a 31-year-old teacher and video game developer. He charged at the security checkpoint, right outside the ballroom. Before being tackled, Allen fired shots, hitting one Secret Service agent, who will make a full recovery because he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
Ironically, the dinner was held at the Washington Hilton, where President Ronald Reagan was seriously wounded by John Hinckley, Jr. on March 30, 1981.
Allen is believed to have traveled to Washington, D.C. by train

There's a brewery in Wisconsin openly celebrating Saturday night’s assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
That's not hyperbole. That's exactly what happened.
Minocqua Brewing Company, a self-described "progressive" brewery and SuperPAC operation out of Wisconsin, has been running what it calls "Free Beer Day" — a standing promise of free drinks at its taprooms the day Donald Trump dies.
The New York Post profiled the brewery earlier this year:
The company’s owner, Kirk Bangstad, is the founder of the Minocqua Brewing Company SuperPAC, which “aims to remove Republican federal and state elected officials who perpetuated the election lies that caused the Insurrection of January 6, 2021,

The gunman who opened fire at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C., on Saturday night has been identified as Cole Allen of Torrance, Calif.
The 31-year-old, who federal law enforcement source confirmed is a teacher, was in custody after gunfire broke out near the event’s main security screening area just after 8:30 p.m.
Allen appeared to assemble a “long” weapon in a lightly monitored area near the terrace-level entrance before opening fire and rushing toward the ballroom.
A described a “makeshift room” near the entrance where bar carts were being stored and where “there was no security” at the time.

We’ve been reporting on Saturday night’s chaos at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner, where shots were fired, and President Trump and the First Lady had to be whisked off to safety by Service Agents. In the aftermath, there has been discussion about whether to proceed with the gala, with the president affirming that he wanted the show to go on.
Now, however, according to the president, that’s not going to happen. He posted to social media minutes ago:
His full message at 9:36 pm ET:
Law Enforcement has requested that we leave the premises, consistent with protocol, which we will do, immediately.

According to on-air reports, which were covering other topics when it occurred, shots have been fired at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
Video of C-Span's coverage shows people ducking below their tables while the head table, where President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump were sitting, evacuated. The anchor can be heard breaking in to point out the developing situation. [Tweet, video]
The situation is fluid, and this post will be updated as more information becomes known.
UPDATE:
It is now being reported that the Secret Service has killed the shooter. It's not clear whether the assailant ever got a shot off.

Any bets on wheather he will see the inside of a prison while wearing an orange jumpsuit???
