If I’m USSS I’m changing these checkpoints now. No one should be able to almost sprint through a checkpoint with 6 officers standing around. Stress test all current protocols. They still got the guy before he got too far but needs to be better.
U.S. President Donald J. Trump has released a security camera video showing Cole Thomas Allen, 31, the suspected shooter at tonight’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, attempting to run past law enforcement and U.S. Secret Service Agents.
It was a long, harsh winter in D.C. We can finally call it over.
After a long and often harsh season — punctuated by persistent cold, stubborn snow and ice, and a late-season chill this week — the pattern ahead has shifted. Milder air is taking hold, and there are no meaningful signs of a return to sustained cold or accumulating snow.
That means we can officially declare the winter of 2025-2026 behind us.
We’ve made it a tradition to mark the onset of spring once the threat of prolonged cold and lasting snow has passed. The forecast now clearly favors warmer days, budding trees and a steady march toward spring — even if a few bumps remain along the way.
The forecast ahead is promising for flowers — and for fans of warmer weather.
Highs surge into the 60s on Friday and reach the 70s by Sunday. But a warning: Springlike weather doesn’t mean sustained warmth.
Next week, for example, daily highs bounce between the low 50s and mid-60s — a reminder that spring is a season of swings.
Still, there is little sign of any return to sustained wintry weather.
Kathy Hochul urges wealthy people to return to New York and contribute taxes: "I need people who are high net worth to support the generous social programs that we want to have in our state. Now, there are some patriotic millionaires who stepped up."

Khamenei, one of the most evil people in History, is dead. This is not only Justice for the people of Iran, but for all Great Americans, and those people from many Countries throughout the World, that have been killed or mutilated by Khamenei and his gang of bloodthirsty THUGS. He was unable to avoid our Intelligence and Highly Sophisticated Tracking Systems and, working closely with Israel, there was not a thing he, or the other leaders that have been killed along with him, could do. This is the single greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their Country. We are hearing that many of their IRGC, Military, and other Security and Police Forces, no longer want to fight, and are looking for Immunity from us. As I said last night, “Now they can have Immunity, later they only get Death!” Hopefully, the IRGC and Police will peacefully merge with the Iranian Patriots, and work together as a unit to bring back the Country to the Greatness it deserves. That process should soon be starting in that, not only the death of Khamenei but the Country has been, in only one day, very much destroyed and, even, obliterated. The heavy and pinpoint bombing, however, will continue, uninterrupted throughout the week or, as long as necessary to achieve our objective of PEACE THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST AND, INDEED, THE WORLD!
