The armed man who breached security at a press dinner attended by US President Donald Trump detailed his motives in a manifesto, naming US officials as targets “prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest.”

The attacker, identified as 31-year-old California teacher Cole Allen, sent a note to relatives around ten minutes before Saturday’s attack at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner at the Washington Hilton in Washington, according to the New York Post, which first published the text.

In the 1,052-word manifesto, signed Cole ‘coldForce’ ‘Friendly Federal Assassin’ Allen, the suspect described himself as a “half-black, half-white” American citizen and framed his actions as a matter of personal responsibility to hold the government accountable.

“And I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes,” he wrote, identifying Trump administration officials – explicitly excluding FBI Director Kash Patel – as targets “prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest.”
