26 April 2026 14:21
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has come under scrutiny after making an ill-timed remark about “shots” shortly before the shooting at a White House Correspondents’ Association event attended by US President Donald Trump.
Speaking on Fox News, Leavitt said: “This speech tonight will be classic Donald J Trump. It will be funny, it will be entertaining. There will be some shots fired tonight in the room,” in response to a question about the president’s planned address.
The comment drew attention after gunfire broke out at the event later that evening.
