A mother discovered that her seventh-grade child had been given a bookmark in support of the LGBTQ agenda, and her email to her county supervisor has led to a bitter debate.

The mother claimed that a woman gave a presentation during English classes and passed out the politically charged bookmarks, according to the email sent to Fresno County Supervisor Garry Bredefeld.

‘These items stray into inappropriate and unwelcome advocacy.’

She said her 13-year-old daughter was given a bookmark and called it “abhorrent” that the Fresno County Public Library had used “tax dollars to target children, suggesting reading materials with sexual/homosexual and transgender content.”

A screenshot of the email was published by KMPH-TV.

The mother went on to point out that library employees had access to children’s private information, and she posited that LGBTQ activists might misuse that information.

“In theory someone could use that data as a grooming list of vulnerable children — confused, unsupervised, ‘not supported at home,'” she added.

Bredefeld brought the issue before the other supervisors, and they voted 3-2 to restrict public libraries from recognizing Pride Month or erecting any display to support the LGBTQ agenda.

“The library now, rather than serve all members of the community in an unbiased fashion, has chosen to become advocates and promote a political agenda that many don’t support,” Bredefeld said.

Predictably, activists are outraged that public spaces won’t be used to push their LGBTQ agenda.

“When an LGBTQ youth walks into a Fresno County library and sees a Pride display, it’s not about politics. It’s a lifeline,” said Diana Feliz Oliva, the founder and CEO of Casita Feliz. “It tells them you are seen.”

Clovis mayor pro tem Diane Pearce disagreed and supported the decision.

“These items stray into inappropriate and unwelcome advocacy,” she said.

The KMPH report said the libraries would still be allowed to display whatever books they wanted.

And despite Bredefeld airing concerns about the questionable content of some books, the county supervisors had no plans to take those books off the shelves.

Bredefeld brought out a sign reading, “No indoctrination of our children,” before the voting took place.

The Trump administration is investigating the U.S.-funded Ukrainian biolabs that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was previously smeared as “treasonous” and “traitorous” for bringing to the public’s attention.

Then

Gabbard issued a video statement while a private citizen in 2022 where she claimed that “there are 25-30 U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine. According to the U.S. government, these biolabs are conducting research on dangerous pathogens.”

In order to mitigate the risk of breaches at the facilities, Gabbard said that “these labs need to be shut down immediately, and the pathogens that they hold need to be destroyed.”

‘The era of lies and betrayal is over.’

Gabbard was viciously attacked over the video even though days earlier, then-Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland — a woman whose meddling in Ukrainian affairs helped pave the way for the ruinous overthrow of its previous government — admitted that such labs existed.

Nuland testified to the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee both that “Ukraine has biological research facilities” and the U.S. government was worried that “Russian forces may be seeking to gain control” of “research materials” in the labs. Then-Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) then steered Nuland into prophesying that should there be a biological or chemical incident in Ukraine, the Russians would necessarily be to blame.

Following Nuland’s admissions, then-Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines testified to the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee that Ukraine “operates a little over a dozen” biolabs for bio-defense; that the U.S. had “provided assistance” to the labs, at least “in the context of biosafety”; and there was room for misuse of “some of the material that’s there that is not intended for weapon purposes but nevertheless could be used in dangerous ways.”

The Pentagon also noted in a fact sheet that month that the U.S., through the Biological Threat Reduction Program, had by that point dumped roughly $200 million in Ukraine since 2005 “supporting 46 Ukrainian laboratories, health facilities, and diagnostic sites.”

The fact sheet noted further that BTRP sought to help the Ukrainians “consolidate and secure pathogens and to continue to ensure Ukraine can detect and report disease outbreaks before they pose security or stability threats.”

Despite the Biden administration bolstering in advance the claims that Gabbard would make in her March 13, 2022, video, failed presidential candidate Mitt Romney accused Gabbard of “parroting false Russian propaganda” and spreading “treasonous lies” that “may well cost lives.”

Then-Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), a Ukraine hawk who later stumped for Kamala Harris’ doomed presidential campaign, shared Gabbard’s video, writing, “Actual Russian propaganda. Traitorous.”

Gabbard noted that such remarks were “slanderous” and stuck to her guns.

Now

Now in a position to do the work she took abuse recommending the government do in 2022, Gabbard is investigating over 120 biolabs outside the U.S. that have been funded by American taxpayers.

The spy chief told the New York Post on Monday that her team will “identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what ‘research’ is being conducted to end dangerous gain-of-function research that threatens the health and well-being of the American people and the world.”

“The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the catastrophic global impact research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have,” Gabbard said. “Yet despite these obvious dangers, politicians, so-called health professionals, like Dr. Fauci, and entities within the Biden administration’s national security team lied to the American people about the existence of these US-funded and supported biolabs and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth.”

ODNI officials confirmed that more than 40 of the biolabs under investigation are — as Gabbard indicated four years ago — in Ukraine and could “be at risk of compromise” due to the ongoing war.

Trump ODNI officials said that the Biden administration’s mixed messaging about the Ukrainian biolabs were part of an “Information Resilience” strategy to “shape the public narrative” to simultaneously “mitigate and counter foreign malign influence” and downplay American ties to the war-zone research. In other words, they were pushing falsehoods domestically to neutralize foreign half-truths.

The State Department, for instance, noted in a carefully worded March 9, 2022, statement that “the United States does not own or operate any chemical or biological laboratories in Ukraine.” The State Department proceeded to reject the claim, not that the U.S. and Ukraine were collaborating on biological and chemical research, but that they were “conducting chemical and biological weapons activities.”

“The prior administration bankrolled dangerous gain-of-function research and foreign biolabs with American tax dollars, then deliberately hid it from the American people,” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said in a statement.

“Under President Trump’s leadership, DNI Tulsi Gabbard and the entire Cabinet are righting these historic wrongs and delivering justice for our warfighters and the ones they protect,” Hegseth continued. “The era of lies and betrayal is over.”

Basketball sensation Caitlin Clark has done more for women’s basketball — at both the collegiate and professional level — than any other player in history. And she’s just at the beginning of her career.

But BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock believes Clark’s impact and influence is waning rapidly, not due to any fault of her own but because the WNBA has already broken her.

“This whole secular, feminist, matriarchal, slave to the LGBTQ agenda may have completely destroyed Caitlin Clark,” he says.

On this episode of “Fearless,” Whitlock adopts the persona of “Sherlock Homie” and investigates the real reason Clark’s reign is likely coming to an end.

Last week, the WNBA tipped off with a three-game run for the league’s 30th season. Clark’s Indiana Fever was one of the teams to debut the season, but to the surprise of many, Clark (who plays point guard) went back to the Fever’s locker room twice during the game for back adjustments.

In her postgame interview, she, as well as her coach Stephanie White, insisted the injury was nothing serious.

But Whitlock thinks there’s more to the story.

The Fever recently drafting point guard Raven Johnson when Clark is just in her third professional season is a “red flag” and “a clue,” he argues.

“Caitlin Clark got manhandled and beaten up in year one, and I don’t think she’s ever recovered, and I think they know it,” he says, pointing out that the WNBA and sports news outlets have started featuring other players in marketing over Clark.

“They know Caitlin Clark is not long term for this league. … They’re trying to hustle us until Caitlin Clark can’t play anymore, and they’re hoping that, hey, by the time you figure that out, that she’s not going to be Super Caitlin and that she may have a limited career because of what we put her through in her rookie year,” Whitlock continues, playing footage of Clark getting repeatedly fouled during her first professional season.

Clark, he argues, has been put through “a hazing process” by the WNBA, which he calls a “lesbian college fraternity.”

“DiJonai Carrington and Marina Mabrey and the other LGBTQ thugs damaged this woman with their brutal style of play,” he says.

“They damaged their rookie hazing her way too aggressively, and now they’re apologizing now that she’s damaged and destroyed potentially.”

“We’ve been had, and that’s why Sherlock Homie is on the case.”

Another exposé from Sara Gonzales has now led to a criminal investigation, this time related to a day care business that has sponsored a suspicious number of H-1B visas.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton directly cited the Gonzales report in a press release announcing the lawsuit against Golden Qi Holdings LLC and Yuan Yao, a citizen of the People’s Republic of China.

Then he drove off in his metallic rose gold BMW.

The report found evidence that Golden and other businesses are being falsely promoted as legitimate enterprises in order to apply for H-1B visas and sell them to Chinese nationals.

Gonzales visited the business known as the Allen Infant Care Center and found no evidence of children and instead found overgrown weeds. When she spoke to an individual familiar with the property, she claimed to Gonzales that Yao “sells visas” and that the business had not operated as a day care for an extended period of time.

The woman, whose identity was protected, claimed to Gonzales that Yao was selling visas for large amounts of money and then receiving labor from the applicants for “next to nothing” in exchange.

“None of these people come from poor homes. These are people who can pay him 20 grand for their visa,” the woman said in the report.

“That arrangement is made in China.”

Gonzales even confronted Yao, who appeared to claim through broken English that he was in the process of reopening the day care and that he had done nothing wrong. He also told Gonzales that he would call the police if she didn’t leave the business.

And then he drove off in his metallic rose gold BMW.

She went on to document how the company had apparently taken out two PPP loans in the amounts of $51,000 and $54,000, and both were forgiven. Gonzales also questioned how they had an autism behavioral center that did not seem at all operational.

“The thing that is so curious about this [case] when you go digging in the data and the [Labor Condition Applications] is that you wouldn’t think that a day care center would need, you know, ‘market research analysts’ or ‘supply chain analysts,'” Gonzales said.

“And yet, this company actually told the United States government that they needed foreign workers to fill those jobs,” she claimed.

Paxton added in a statement that his office was working to prevent any foreign national from illegally entering into the U.S.

“Let this be a warning to anyone considering trying to scam the H-1B visa program,” he wrote. “I will continue fighting to ensure that the H-1B program serves the interests of Americans, not Chinese nationals, and that those who abuse the program are held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.”

“My office will continue to work to stop any foreign national from entering this country unlawfully,” he added.

Gonzales thanked Paxton for taking action on her report.

Liberal entertainer Chelsea Handler went head-to-head with one of the biggest comedians in the United States over the weekend, and the results were brutal.

Handler was once known for her talk shows, including “Chelsea Lately” (2007–2014), but in recent years, she has become a dominant progressive voice for feminism and being alone.

‘Her whole act is just talking about how it’s stupid to have kids.’

Handler has garnered headlines in the last two decades for comments like, “I’m not interested in long-term commitments” in 2025, saying “being childless and alone are everything they’re cracked up to be” in 2016, and “I definitely don’t want to have kids” in 2013.

On Sunday, however, Handler was forced to perform ahead of rival Tony Hinchcliffe on Netflix’s “The Roast of Kevin Hart” — giving the more conservative Hinchcliffe the last word.

Ladies first

Keeping with her progressive motif, Handler directed jokes at Hinchcliffe like, “Tony is what happens when women don’t have safe access to abortion care,” and “Tony you have the face of a school shooter and the personality of somebody who gets shot first.”

The 51-year-old also went after Shane Gillis, who was hosting the roast, saying, “Tony and Shane both live in Texas where abortion is illegal, but on the upside, if you see one of them doing comedy there’s a pretty good chance your uterus will start dry heaving on its own.”

She then joked that both are white supremacists who, if they weren’t at the event, would typically “just burn a cross on someone’s lawn.”

Six comedians later, it was Hinchcliffe’s turn, and he did not hold back his disdain for Handler in a series of brutal roasts.

Burn notice

“We knew Chelsea Handler would be available today because it’s Mother’s Day,” Hinchcliffe began.

Hinchcliffe then mocked Handler’s looks, saying she “looks like the f**king Joker” and is “aging like a vegetable in Lizzo’s fridge.”

It then seemed like Hinchcliffe may have gone off the cuff when he said Handler “f**king sucks and always has, by the way. Her whole act is just talking about how it’s stupid to have kids.”

He went on, “We get it, your ovaries are busted, that’s like if Kevin [Hart]’s whole act was about how ‘roller coasters aren’t that cool anyway.'”

Rounding out his full assault, the 41-year-old Hinchcliffe said, “Chelsea actually had her eggs frozen, not on purpose, they’re just inside of a cold, frigid bitch.”

Race to the bottom

Handler wasn’t the only liberal Hinchcliffe triggered, but the family of the late drug-addict turned progressive icon George Floyd took issue with one of the comedian’s closing remarks.

Hinchcliffe joked to Kevin Hart that the “black community is so proud of you — right now George Floyd is looking up at us all laughing so hard that he can’t breathe.”

TMZ was told by a spokesman for the George and Gianna Floyd Foundation that Hart allowing Hinchcliffe’s joke is “sad for the culture.”

Floyd’s family and friends reportedly think Hinchcliffe is a “racist comedian,” while the foundation claimed it is only trying to better its community.

The foundation also bizarrely stated, “Let’s try to be a little bit more positive — and not sit up there doing colon inspections by white comedians.”

Nebraska voters heading to the polls on Tuesday are facing a convoluted Senate primary in which both parties are trading accusations of spoiler candidates intended to manipulate the November general election.

Incumbent U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.) is up for re-election and defending his seat in the Tuesday primary against several Republican challengers.

‘We must vote for Cindy to knock fake Forbes out of the Primary Election to allow Osborn to take on Ricketts.’

Meanwhile, the Democrat primary election has sparked controversy, with candidate Cindy Burbank accusing her competitor, William Forbes, of being a Ricketts plant.

“Pete Ricketts, who is running for reelection, is putting in a candidate loyal to him in the DEMOCRATIC primary — to split the vote against him, so he wins easily. He’s running an anti-abortion activist named Bill Forbes, who has posted in support of Pete Ricketts!” Burbank’s campaign website states.

Burbank claimed that Ricketts planted Forbes because he is concerned that he will lose his re-election bid in the November general election to independent candidate Dan Osborn.

“He knows he’s losing to Dan Osborn and this is his plan to cheat his way to victory. We can’t let that happen,” Burbank’s website reads.

Burbank accused Forbes, a pastor who previously voted for President Donald Trump, of being “a ‘fake’ Democrat,” stating that Osborn “is a good man, a working man, a strike leader, and someone we can trust.”

“He deserves a fair shot against Ricketts.”

Osborn previously ran a strong 2024 race against Sen. Deb Fischer (R), losing by less than seven percentage points. Although he did not win, he garnered 66,000 more votes than former Vice President Kamala Harris (D) received in Nebraska in the presidential election against Trump.

The Nebraska Democratic Party echoed the accusation that Ricketts “planted his spoiler and fake Democratic candidate.” The party expressed concern that a Forbes win over Burbank would split votes between Forbes and Osborn in the general election, giving Ricketts a greater chance of victory.

The NDP, which originally planned not to field a nominee, stated that the strategy was to ensure that Burbank won the primary. Burbank would then presumably withdraw before the general election to allow Osborn to compete against Ricketts.

“We must vote for Cindy to knock fake Forbes out of the Primary Election to allow Osborn to take on Ricketts one-on-one in the General Election. This is the path to send Ricketts and his millions packing. This is the way to break the one-party rule in Nebraska,” the NDP wrote.

NDP chair Jane Kleeb wrote in a post on X in July 2025 that the party planned to support Osborn, believing he was the best chance to beat Ricketts in the deep-red state.

The New York Times reported that Burbank “confirmed that she planned to exit the race after the primary, assuming that Mr. Osborn submits enough signatures to qualify for the November ballot.”

“I will stay in until it is obvious that I cannot win in November, and I will drop out,” Burbank told the Times.

Osborn accused Ricketts of reverting to “classic dirty tricks” to win re-election.

“Unfortunately for Ricketts, Bill Forbes’ Trojan-horse campaign is doomed,” an Osborn campaign manager told KETV.

Forbes denied being a plant, telling the outlet that he is a “real Democrat in the mold of JFK and Ben Nelson — tough, practical, and focused on working families instead of coastal lunacy.”

“What flies in radical California dies in Nebraska. Voters here want a strong Democrat who reaches across the aisle and actually unites people — not another phony independent puppet like Dan Osborn,” Forbes said.

Ricketts’ campaign has denied having any role in the Democrat primary.

The Nebraska Republican Party responded to the Democrat plot by filing a complaint to have Burbank removed from the ballot, arguing that she was not a “good-faith” candidate because she had no intention of serving in office. Burbank challenged that removal attempt, and the Nebraska Supreme Court ultimately ruled to reinstate Burbank, stating that the deadline to consider such complaints had passed.

Legal Marijuana NOW Party candidate Mike Marvin was also accused of being a spoiler in the race after Burbank paid his $1,740 filing fee on the last day for candidates to file, according to the Nebraska Examiner.

She confirmed to the outlet that she paid his filing fee after witnessing “the secretary’s people refusing to take Mike’s check because it was for 10 dollars too much.”

“It pissed me off, and I paid for it. … I’ve never met Mike,” Burbank told the Nebraska Examiner. “If Ricketts can throw his money around, then so can I!”

When asked why Burbank paid his filing fee, Marvin told the outlet that he had “no idea what is happening.”

“I keep waiting for the check I wrote to clear,” Marvin stated. “I don’t even know Cindy Burbank.”

Marvin denied being a plant, writing in a Facebook post, “No one has hired me to do this; that is slanderous.”

After losing his home in the Palisades Fire, former reality star Spencer Pratt launched a viral mayoral campaign ad blasting Los Angeles leadership — and while Liz Wheeler isn’t the biggest fan of celebrities getting political, she believes there is something different about him.

“I confess: I am not typically a fan of celebrities who, just because they’re bored after the peak of their career, dip their toe in politics. I’m not typically a fan of that,” Wheeler says.

“However, Spencer Pratt might be a little bit different,” she admits, before playing Pratt’s viral campaign ad, which he reportedly shot in a few hours on a very limited budget and which has millions of views on X alone.

“This is where Mayor Bass lives,” Pratt begins, standing in front of a mansion. “You notice something?”

“They don’t have to live in the mess they’ve created — where you live,” he says, before showing a homeless encampment.

Pratt goes on to reveal where he now lives after the Palisades Fire: in a trailer.

“This is where I live. They let my home burn down. I know what the consequences of failed leadership are. That’s why I’m running for mayor — for my sons and the rest of us Angelenos that want to stop these corrupt politicians from destroying our city,” he continues. “We are going to get the golden age of Los Angeles back.”

“The best part of this will be how immediately obvious that it becomes to everyone in the country — not just to residents of Los Angeles, not even just to California residents, but to everyone in the country, people on the right and the left, how immediately obvious it becomes that disgusting, dangerous, degrading cities like Los Angeles are not inevitable,” Wheeler comments.

“They are, in fact, a deliberate political choice that the Democrats make intentionally to hurt you and to control you. This is also why Democrats are not going to fight fair. They cannot let Spencer Pratt win, because they cannot have the American people, by and large, understand that disgusting, dangerous, degrading cities are a deliberate political choice that Democrats have made intentionally to harm and to control you,” she continues.

“And this is why we, the American people — even those of us who don’t live in Los Angeles — must help Spencer Pratt win in any way that we can offer our assistance,” she adds.

A repeat offender who’s accused of seriously wounding two in a brazen daytime shooting Monday in Cambridge, Massachusetts, seemed headed for a long stretch in prison after he pleaded guilty in 2021 to firing at police officers in Boston.

You see, prosecutors wanted Tyler E. Brown to serve at least 10 years in prison for shooting at cops the year before, the Boston Globe reported.

‘I am a firm believer that when Mr. Tyler Brown gets out, he will hurt, or worse, kill someone.’

However, the paper said Judge Janet L. Sanders imposed a sentence of five to six years in state prison, with credit for about 18 months he’d spent in custody while the case was pending.

After just a few years behind bars, Brown was released back into the community, WFXT-TV reported.

Brown on Monday allegedly shot two people with a rifle on a Cambridge street not far from Harvard and MIT, the Globe said. The victims remained hospitalized Tuesday with life-threatening injuries, officials told the paper.

RELATED: 19-year-old thug reportedly violated bond at least a half dozen times before being accused of murder — while out on probation

Brown was shot by a state trooper and an armed civilian, the Globe said, and remained at an area hospital.

Officials on Monday said Brown is expected to face two counts of armed assault with intent to murder and firearms offenses, the paper reported.

Forget how angry officials likely are over Monday’s shooting given that Brown might otherwise have been behind bars. Law enforcement was outraged back in 2021 over Brown’s lighter sentence — records show he was already on probation for a stabbing and witness intimidation at the time, WFXT noted.

One officer even predicted Brown would return to violence once he was released.

“I am a firm believer that when Mr. Tyler Brown gets out, he will hurt, or worse, kill someone,” one officer involved in the 2020 shooting wrote in an impact statement, according to WCVB-TV. “Probation apparently means nothing to Mr. Tyler Brown, nor does the value of life.”

Gregory Long, the department’s superintendent in chief at the time, said in a statement after Brown’s August 2021 sentence that “the Boston Police Department is extremely disappointed in this sentence,” the Globe reported.

Long, according to the paper, added that “this sentence does not reflect the magnitude and seriousness of the offense committed by this individual. Acts of violence such as this in our city streets require and demand adequate accountability.”

Even George Soros-backed Rachael Rollins — the Suffolk district attorney at the time — wasn’t happy with the judge’s sentence.

“My office recommended a significant sentence for Mr. Brown given the nature of his offenses and the trauma and harm he inflicted,” Rollins said, according to the Globe. “I am disappointed in the sentence that was imposed.”

As Blaze News previously reported, Rollins in 2023 announced plans to resign as Massachusetts U.S. attorney after she was accused of leaking “sensitive DOJ” information to the press in an effort to influence an election in favor of a fellow Democratic colleague.

More from the Globe:

Brown, now 46, had only been out of jail a few months on May 16, 2020, when he opened fire at several officers who had responded to a report of a man with a gun who was threatening people on Northampton Street in the South End. He was arrested after he fled to Massachusetts Avenue, where he shot at officers who returned fire, the Globe reported.

He pleaded guilty the following year to eight charges, including armed assault with intent to murder, attempted assault and battery by means of discharging a firearm for firing at a Boston police officer, and three counts of assault with a dangerous weapon for pointing a firearm at additional responding Boston police officers, officials said.

Prosecutors said they had sought a sentence of 10 to 12 years, followed by five years of probation. At the time of the shooting, Brown was on probation for a 2014 conviction for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, a knife, and witness intimidation, records show.

In relation to Monday afternoon’s shooting, Middlesex County District Attorney Marian Ryan told WFXT in a separate story that an active shooter situation was under way when officers arrived at the scene in Cambridge, noting that the suspect “was already traveling down the middle of Memorial Drive, cars were stopped in traffic, … and he was actively firing in an erratic fashion at various vehicles along the road.”

Two victims in separate vehicles were struck by gunfire, including a municipal bus driver who reportedly drove himself to the hospital after he was shot in the head, WFXT said.

Authorities added that a state police trooper — as well as a civilian described as a former Marine licensed to carry a firearm — moved toward the suspect while shots were being fired, WFXT said.

Officials said the suspect was struck multiple times in the lower extremities and treated at the scene, WFXT added.

Ryan noted that motorists abandoned their vehicles and ran in multiple directions as the shooting unfolded, WFXT reported, adding that some people reportedly took cover underneath their cars.

Some Democrats refuse to believe their lying eyes, no matter how many attempts are made on Donald Trump’s life.

Despite a wounded Secret Service agent, a room full of witnesses evacuated from the premises, and video footage of a gunman on a rampage, a sizeable number of Democrats still do not believe anyone tried to kill President Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last month, a new poll shows.

According to a NewsGuard poll released Monday, 24% of respondents overall and 34% of Democrats believe the WHCD shooting was staged. Even 13% of Republicans believe it was staged.

Just 38% of respondents believe that all three attempts were real.

Those between the ages of 18 and 29 were the most likely to believe the event was staged.

And that’s not all. The poll also revealed that many Americans — 12% of respondents — believe that all three Trump assassination attempts are fake. At 55%, Democrats represent a majority of those who hold that belief.

Just 38% of respondents believe that all three attempts were real.

Of note, would-be assassin Thomas Crooks was shot and killed by federal agents in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024, but not before he struck Trump in the ear, murdered one man, and critically injured two others.

Would-be assassin Ryan Routh is serving a life sentence in federal prison after setting up a sniper’s nest near the sixth hole of the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach two months after the Butler shooting.

On Monday, the same day the poll was released, suspected WHCD shooter Cole Allen pled not guilty to one count of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump, one count of assaulting a federal officer with a deadly weapon, and two counts of a gun charge.

Allen also faces the possibility of life in prison if convicted.
