Accused White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman Cole Allen sent a crazed manifesto to his family just 10 minutes before he opened fire at Saturday’s event at the Washington Hilton.

In the 1,052-word missive exclusively obtained by The Post Sunday morning, Allen, 31, called himself the “Friendly Federal Assassin” and revealed he was trying to kill Trump administration officials.

President Trump, first lady Melania Trump and cabinet members were among the 2,5000 attendees of the annual event, and the high-profile guests were swiftly ushered out of the room after shots rang out.

A Secret Service agent was struck in the vest during the melee, and a shirtless Allen was soon taken into custody in the lobby.

Trump recounted how the harrowing scene has led to political unification, especially among “generally hostile” Democrats — and stressed that the incident proves the need for his planned über-secure White House ballroom.

The president also discussed the shooting on CBS’ “60 Minutes” on Sunday night.

Allen was charged with using a firearm during a crime of violence and one count for assault on a federal officer using a dangerous weapon.

The event has been postponed and is slated to take place in about a month.

Trump tells ’60 Minutes’ he ‘wasn’t worried’ when gunfire erupted at WHCD

President Trump “wasn’t worried” when gunshots erupted outside the White House Correspondents Dinner Saturday night after surviving two other attempts on his life in less than two years.

The GOP leader revealed to “60 Minutes” his unbothered state of mind when the sound of gunfire rang out as he sat next to First Lady Melania Trump during the star-studded event.

“I wasn’t worried. I understand life,” Trump said when asked if he was concerned about injuries. “We live in a crazy world.”

The celebratory dinner quickly turned into chaos when accused gunman Cole Allen raced to carry out carnage inside the Washington Hilton.

Cole was stopped before he could carry out his plan outlined in an apparent manifesto to target top Trump officials. He was detained near a security checkpoint leading up to the venue’s ballroom, where the dinner was taking place.

He is currently in custody and facing charges.

WHCD guest caught casually munching on salad as others took cover during shooting explains himself

A White House Correspondents’ Dinner guest who went viral for casually munching on his burrata salad as others ducked for cover at the sound of gunfire explained his calm demeanor Sunday.

“First of all, I have a bad back. I couldn’t get on the floor, and if I did get on the floor, they’d have to bring in people to get me off the floor,” Creative Artists Agency agent Michael Glantz told the New York Times.

“And No. 2, I’m a hygiene freak. There was no freaking way I was getting my new tux on the dirty Hilton floor. It was not happening.”

Glantz was captured on CNN sneaked a fork full of salad despite the chaos and commotion at the DC gala Saturday night.

He quickly went viral for his even-keel approach, which he further elaborated on.

“I’m a New Yorker,” he told the Times.

“We live with sirens and activity happening all the time. I wasn’t scared.

“There are hundreds of Secret Service agents hurtling themselves over tables and chairs, and I wanted to watch.”

Ex-President Barack Obama weighs in on the WHCD shooting

Former President Barack Obama weighed in on the gunfire at the White House Correspondents Dinner – but caught ire from conservatives for claiming details about the motives were still unknown.

“Although we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind last night’s shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, it’s incumbent upon all us to reject the idea that violence has any place in our democracy,” he wrote on X Sunday afternoon.

“It’s also a sobering reminder of the courage and sacrifice that U.S. Secret Service Agents show every day. I’m grateful to them – and thankful that the agent who was shot is going to be okay.”

Online commentators quickly pointed out accused gunman Cole Allen had an anti-Trump manifesto that claimed he wanted to target officials in the administration.

“There is no ambiguity. It was a politically motivated attack driven by anti-Trump and anti-Christian bile. It’s wrong to downplay or obscure the obvious motive,” argued former spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin.

Dems called out for continuous anti-Trump rhetoric after third assassination attempt during WHCD shooting

Democratic politicians are being singled out for clutching their pearls over Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting — while eagerly contributing to the rhetoric critics say leads to acts of political violence.

The lefty lawmakers practically tripped over each other to be first in line to condemn the attempted mass shooting, in which crazed accused gunman Cole Allen, 31, barged into the Washington Hilton intending to kill President Trump and other administration officials.

But dozens of pols’ past comments highlighted by RNC Research after the attack show that Former President Joe Biden’s limp 2024 call to “lower the temperature’ of American politics after the first assassination attempt against President Trump has gone unheeded by the political left.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) wrote on social media that she is “grateful the President and all the guests from last night’s event are safe, and no one was seriously injured,” adding that “political violence has no place in America.”

RNC Research shared her X post, pointing out that she’s called the president an “existential threat to democracy,” and blasting her for her choice of language that is “inciting violence” against President Trump and Republicans.

Failed 2024 vice presidential candidate Tim Walz, also the embattled outgoing governor of Minnesota, put out a cookie-cutter statement that “political violence has become all too prevalent in America.”

Few Democrats can claim to have attempted to sow more fear in Americans about President Trump than Walz, who has routinely compared him and his administration to fascists and Nazis.

“No one has ever been more dangerous to this country than Donald Trump, and he is a fascist to his core,” he said during a campaign rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, in 2024.

In response to the attack, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), issued a statement saying only that he was “monitoring the unfolding situation” at the gala and that he was “grateful” for the work of law enforcement.

RNC Research points out that Schumer has yet to condemn the “radical leftist” who tried to assassinate the president.

Brooklyn Democratic Congressman Hakeem Jeffries thanked law enforcement and proclaimed “the violence and chaos in America must end” on X.

Just three days earlier, Jeffries called for “maximum warfare” against President Trump and the administration.
