Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California, faces federal charges after the attempted assassination at the Washington Hilton, where President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, and other administration officials were in attendance.
In a manifesto sent to relatives, and since made public, Allen admitted to targeting Trump administration officials, and left writings in his hotel room describing Trump as a “pedophile, rapist, and traitor.”
Allen had checked into the Hilton the day before the event, having traveled by train from Los Angeles.
It has now been revealed that Allen was active on Bluesky under the handle “coldForce,” with eye emojis replacing the “o”s.

The account’s bio described him as “a random Californian guy with posts about American politics, support for Ukraine, and observations of small creatures.”
The profile was suspended shortly after the shooting attempt.
An administration official provided some of the posts from his account to Jack Posobiec atThe Post Millennial.
Allen’s posts repeatedly attacked President Trump. He called the president a “known traitor” who ran his campaign “on revenge,” “f-cked up the covid response,” and had “known connections [to a] murderous fucker in the kremlin.”
