Joy Reid floats theory WHCA Dinner shooting could have been staged, tied to Trump's ballroom push

Far-left podcaster Joy Reid speculated that the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner shooting might have been staged, linking it to President Donald Trump’s push for a White House ballroom. The incident involved an armed assailant, Cole Allen, who was apprehended, and led to Trump’s evacuation. Reid referenced a reported Russian plot to stage an assassination against Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán as a precedent, while a White House spokesperson dismissed her claims as baseless.
