I Was At The White House Dinner With Kash Patel - Then The Shooting Started

Shots rang out at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner — just yards from the President of the United States.

At one table sat FBI Director Kash Patel.

On this episode of The Trial: USA, Kayla Brantley and Daily Mail Associate Editor Wills take you inside the room as the shooting unfolded — including what happened at their table in the moments the chaos began.

They walk through the night step by step — from the first sounds of gunfire, to the Secret Service response, to the confusion inside one of Washington’s most high-profile events.

We also break down the case against Cole Tomas Allen, who has now appeared in court facing federal charges including the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.

What do we know about his motive?

What was revealed in court?

And how did he get so close?

This is what it was like inside the room.
