The round that struck a U.S. Secret Service officer during Saturday’s shooting outside the ballroom where the White House Correspondents’ Dinner was taking place was not friendly fire, multiple senior law enforcement officials told CBS News Wednesday.

Justice Department investigators, working with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, have at this point determined that the suspected gunman, 31-year-old Cole Allen, fired his shotgun, the officials said.

A source familiar with the investigation previously told CBS News that a total of six shots were fired when the gunman charged a security checkpoint at the Washington Hilton — one by the suspect, and the other five rounds by the Secret Service officer who was struck in his bulletproof vest.

Two sources familiar with the investigation said the shot that struck the agent likely hit the cellphone that was tucked inside a pocket of his bulletproof vest. The officer was not seriously hurt.

Allen, of Torrance, California, fell to the floor during the incident and was arrested at the scene, officials said. He was not wounded during the incident.

He has since been charged with attempting to assassinate the president of the United States, discharging a firearm during a crime of violence, violent crime and transporting a firearm in interstate commerce with intent to commit a felony.

He made his first federal court appearance Monday, but did not enter a plea.

美国总统特朗普周三说，美国同伊朗正在通过电话进行谈判，并强调伊朗必须明确承诺彻底放弃核武器。

综合路透社与新华社的报道，特朗普星期三（4月29日）在白宫告诉记者，美伊一直保持对话，现在通过电话沟通，“不再像以前那样，每次想看一份文件都要飞18个小时去开会”。

他说这种方式非常便捷，“我打个电话，或让我的人去打，15分钟内就能知道答案”，但“我向来更倾向于面对面交流”。

特朗普还说，目前双方谈判已经取得一些进展，问题是伊朗所做的让步是否能满足美方要求。“目前而言，除非他们明确承诺彻底放弃核武器，否则双方绝不可能达成任何协议。”

伊朗日前经由巴基斯坦向美国提出一份新谈判方案。据媒体披露，方案提议分三阶段渐进展开谈判：第一阶段谈结束战争，第二阶段聚焦霍尔木兹海峡通航，第三阶段涉及伊朗核问题。

白宫新闻秘书莱维特证实，特朗普周一召集国家安全团队讨论伊朗提出的新方案。美国官员稍后告诉媒体，特朗普对这一方案不满意，原因是方案前两个阶段不涉及伊朗核问题。

US charges governor of Mexico’s Sinaloa state and 9 others with drug trafficking and weapons charges

A federal grand jury indicted the governor of Sinaloa and other Mexican state officials with drug trafficking and weapons charges for allegedly working with cartels to bring drugs into the United States in exchange for bribes and favors.

Ruben Rocha Moya, the governor of the Mexican state of Sinaloa since 2021, and nine current or former high-ranking Mexican officials were charged in a five-count indictment unsealed Wednesday with allegedly helping a faction of the cartel led by the Chapitos, the sons of Joaquin Guzman Loera — also known as El Chapo, the former leader of the Sinaloa cartel until he was prosecuted in the US.

“These politicians and law enforcement officials have abused their authority in support of the Cartel, exposed and subjected victims to threats and violence, and sold out their offices in exchange for massive bribes,” according to the indictment.

Prosecutors in New York allege Rocha Moya met with the Chapitos prior to his election in 2021 and assured them that if elected, he would put officials friendly to their drug trafficking operations into power. Cartel members stole ballot boxes and kidnapped or intimidated opponents to drop out of the race to ensure his victory, according to the indictment.

Rocha Moya strongly denied the allegations, writing on X, “I categorically and absolutely reject the accusations made against me by the Southern District of New York Federal Prosecutor’s Office, as they lack any truth or foundation whatsoever. And this will be demonstrated, with full force, at the appropriate time.”

Moya went on to say, “To the people of Sinaloa, I say that, with the courage and dignity that characterize us, we will demonstrate the lack of foundation for this slander.”

Mexico’s Foreign Ministry said it received extradition requests from the US government but said they lack “sufficient evidence.” In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said, “However, as is standard procedure in these cases, the Attorney General’s Office will determine whether there is sufficient evidence under Mexican law and the viability of the requests for provisional arrest for extradition.”

US prosecutors allege the current and former Mexican officials aided the cartel in importing fentanyl, cocaine and other drugs from Mexico into the US; shielded the cartel leaders from investigation and prosecution; and allowed drug-related violence. In exchange, the indictment alleges, the defendants in total received millions of dollars.

Authorities allege one of the men, Juan Valenzuela Millan, a former high-level commander in the Culiacan police department, assisted in the kidnapping of a US Drug Enforcement Administration source and another victim. They were turned over to the cartel, which killed them, the indictment says. Millan, who led the department in Sinaloa’s largest city, allegedly accepted approximately $41,000 a month in bribes he distributed to others on the police force, and in exchange, he gave the Chapitos access to department resources, including patrol cars and radios.

Damaso Castro Zaavedra, the deputy attorney general for the Sinaloa state attorney general’s office , allegedly received monthly payments of approximately $11,000 from the Chapitos for protecting them from arrests and tipping them off about planned US-backed operations.

After El Chapo’s arrest, the cartel splintered into two groups — the one led by the Chapitos and the other by Ismael Zambada Garcia, known as El Mayo.

US authorities previously charged the Chapitos. Two were extradited to the US and pleaded guilty. The other two brothers remain at large in Mexico. Zambada was also charged and brought to the US in 2024 to face charges. He also pleaded guilty.

Zambada previously accused Rocha Moya of being involved in an alleged meeting that led to his capture. Rocha Moya at the time denied any involvement, saying, “There is absolutely nothing, nothing, that can link me to that matter, nothing. I say this categorically, emphatically. Nothing.”

Trump says U.S. may cut the number of American troops in Germany

President Trump said Wednesday he is considering reducing the number of U.S. forces in Germany, amid a spat with Germany’s chancellor and the NATO alliance over Iran.

“The United States is studying and reviewing the possible reduction of Troops in Germany, with a determination to be made over the next short period of time,” he wrote on Truth Social.

The U.S. military has a massive presence in Germany that dates back to the aftermath of World War II and the Cold War. More than 36,000 active duty troops were assigned to bases throughout Germany as of last December, along with nearly 1,500 reservists and 11,500 civilians, according to Defense Department figures. Japan is the only foreign country with a larger presence of U.S. troops.

Germany is also home to the headquarters of U.S. European Command and Africa Command, and its Ramstein Air Base is a key hub for U.S. operations.

The president has grown increasingly frustrated with the U.S.’s allies in Europe, which have sought to keep their distance from the U.S.-Iran war. He has threatened to leave NATO, calling the alliance a “paper tiger” for not entering the war. A 2023 law prevents the president from withdrawing the U.S. from NATO without approval from Congress.

Meanwhile, Europe is grappling with higher energy prices as the Iran conflict severely constrains oil exports from the Middle East.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz appeared to draw Mr. Trump’s ire after he criticized the U.S.’s handling of the war earlier this week, saying “the Americans clearly have no strategy” on Iran and suggesting the U.S. is being “humiliated” by Iranian negotiators.

On Tuesday, Mr. Trump wrote on social media that Merz “thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon” and “doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”

“No wonder Germany is doing so poorly, both Economically, and otherwise!” the president said.

Hours before Mr. Trump floated troop reductions, Merz told reporters he still is on good terms with the U.S. president, despite their well-publicized disagreements over Iran strategy.

Mr. Trump’s skepticism of NATO predates the Iran war. He has long accused member states of not spending enough on defense and of being too reliant on the U.S. for security.

In 2020, the final year of his first term, Mr. Trump announced plans to pull around 12,000 U.S. forces from Germany, after accusing the European country of being “delinquent” in military spending. The plan drew bipartisan pushback and was reversed by former President Joe Biden.

In a smaller move last fall, U.S. officials told CBS News that around 700 troops who were deployed in Germany, Romania and Poland would return home. U.S. Army Europe and Africa said it was part of a “deliberate process to ensure a balanced U.S. military force posture,” and was “not an American withdrawal from Europe or a signal of lessened commitment to NATO.”

美国总统特朗普说，他周三与俄罗斯总统普京通电话，建议俄方同乌克兰实施短期停火。

综合路透社与新华社报道，特朗普星期三（4月29日）在白宫会见执行美国载人绕月任务的宇航员时对记者说，他同普京聊得很愉快，他建议俄乌实行短期停火，“我想他可能会采纳这一建议。”

特朗普说，他与普京的谈话涉及多个课题，除了乌克兰外，也稍微谈及了伊朗。他说，普京希望参与伊朗浓缩铀问题的解决，以推动结束伊朗战事。“但我对他说，我宁愿看到你把精力放在结束乌克兰战事上。”

被问及乌克兰和伊朗两场战事哪个会先结束时，特朗普说：“我不知道，也许它们的时间表差不多。”

普京：准备在胜利日停火

俄罗斯总统助理乌沙科夫则说，普京告诉特朗普，俄罗斯准备在胜利日期间实施停火，特朗普对此表示支持。

乌沙科夫说，此次通话是由俄方发起的，持续了超过一个半小时，双方对话“坦诚且务实”。

US will deny visas to applicants who say they fear persecution at home

Applicants for visas to the United States will now have to affirm that they do not fear persecution in their home countries as the Trump administration seeks to further restrict potential asylum seeks from entering the country.

The new rule, outlined in a diplomatic cable to all embassies and consulates this week, comes amid a sweeping shift in policies that have upended and restricted immigration to the US.

The administration had already increased vetting for student visa applicants, and it has temporarily paused decisions on immigration applications to ensure that they meet newly rolled out security check guidance, according to a source familiar with the situation and an internal memo.

The rule applies for those applying for nonimmigrant visas, which include those for tourists, students and temporary workers. In January, the US suspended immigrant visa processing for 75 countries.

“Consular officers must prevent abuse of the immigration system by visa applicants who misrepresent their purpose of travel, including those who attempt to obtain nonimmigrant visas for the purpose of claiming asylum upon arrival in the United States,” said the cable, which was reviewed by CNN.

The Washington Post first reported on the cable.

The directive from the State Department instructs consular officers to ask nonimmigrant visa applicants two questions: “Have you experienced harm or mistreatment in your country of nationality or last habitual residence?” and “Do you fear harm or mistreatment in returning to your country of nationality or permanent residence?”

“Visa applicants must respond verbally with a ‘no’ to both questions for the consular officer to continue with visa issuance,” the cable instructed.

·A State Department spokesperson said, “Consular officers are the first line of defense for US national security” and noted the department “uses all available tools and resources to determine whether each visa applicant qualifies under US law.”

In order to seek asylum, a person must be physically present in the US and be fleeing political, racial or religious persecution in their home country.

Camille Mackler, an immigration policy consultant, told CNN that the new directive “is going to put people in really bad, terrible positions of having to make choices that ultimately affect their and their family safety.”

“I also think this pushes people to unsafe for pathways and unsafe for routes, because if you need to leave, you leave, and you do whatever you need to do that,” she said.

House passes FISA renewal in bipartisan vote, putting pressure on Senate before looming deadline

April 29, 2026 5:27pm EDT / Fox News

Senate Majority Leader John Thune warns a controversial provision added to win over conservatives could make it ‘dead on arrival’

By Adam Pack , Chad Pergram

Congressional Republicans are racing to extend a controversial spying program before it is scheduled to lapse Friday at midnight.

House lawmakers voted 235 to 191 in a bipartisan manner to extend Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) for the rest of President Donald Trump’s term.

The vote split Republicans, with more than 20 GOP privacy hawks voting against a three-year extension of the warrantless surveillance program.

The successful vote leaves the Senate little time to act before the fast-approaching April 30 deadline.

SPEAKER JOHNSON ONE STEP CLOSER TO RENEWING CONTROVERSIAL SPY PROGRAM AFTER CONSERVATIVES FALL IN LINE

A swath of House conservatives voted against the FISA renewal bill, citing concerns that the measure does not include more stringent privacy safeguards, such as a requirement for intelligence agencies to obtain a warrant before accessing Americans’ data.

The spy law, considered one of the government’s most powerful surveillance tools, allows the U.S. government to gather intelligence on foreigners abroad who are using U.S. platforms, even when those communications involve Americans.

“We should all be standing up for the Fourth Amendment,” Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, a leading GOP privacy hawk, said during debate on the FISA renewal bill Tuesday.

House leadership attempted to win over some conservative holdouts by adding language permanently banning the Federal Reserve from issuing central bank digital currencies (CBDC) to the FISA renewal bill.

But Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has warned that the sweetener for privacy hawks will be interpreted as a poison pill in the Senate, where Democrats fiercely oppose a CBDC ban.

“They know that,” Thune told reporters Tuesday, referring to House Republicans.

Johnson has voiced optimism that the upper chamber will take up the House bill without modifications.

“I speak with Leader Thune all the time. They’re watching this very closely, and hopefully they can process what we send them,” Johnson told Fox News Wednesday.

“No one, on the Republican side anyway, wants to play around with letting these critical national security tools go unfunded or expire,” he added. “So, I think they’ll move it expeditiously.”

The Trump administration has pressured House Republicans for weeks to back an extension of the spy law, arguing the surveillance authority is too vital for national security to expire.

“This department strongly supports the reauthorization of FISA 702,” Department of War Secretary Pete Hegseth told lawmakers Wednesday. “It is not hyperbole to say many of the most important missions we have executed could not have happened without the intelligence gathered through FISA 702.”

House Democrats, many of whom have fierce objections to a clean extension of the spy law, voted en masse against the measure.

“I’m suspicious. The way it’s proposed right now, particularly under this administration,” Rep. Andre Carson, D-Ind., told Fox News, referring to the FISA renewal bill. “I was more comfortable when I voted for it in 2024. Under this administration, I’m not as comfortable.”

Just 42 Democratic lawmakers, including Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, crossed party lines in support of the measure.

“I’ve seen countless, countless instances where the intelligence obtained through section 702 quite literally saved lives,” the Connecticut Democrat said. “So, given the binary choice between reauthorization and expiration, the responsible choice is reauthorization.”

美联储主席鲍威尔星期三在最后一次政策会议后的新闻发布会上说，他将在下月任期结束后继续担任美联储理事。 （法新社）

美国联邦储备局主席鲍威尔周三说，他将在下月任期结束后继续担任美联储理事，具体时间待定。

鲍威尔星期三（4月29日）在最后一次政策会议后的新闻发布会上说：“我的主席任期将于5月15日结束，之后我将继续担任美联储理事，具体任期长短待定。”

鲍威尔说，他并不想成为一名高调的异议人士，而是希望看到导致美联储遭受前所未有的法律攻击的政治氛围能够平静下来，让美联储能够更加专注于核心使命。

他告诉记者：“我担心这些攻击正在重创美联储，并危及对公众真正重要的事物，那就是在不考虑政治因素的情况下制定货币政策的能力。”

美国司法部今年1月就美联储总部翻新工程超支展开调查和发出传票。鲍威尔当时批评此举实质上是在惩罚美联储不遵从总统特朗普的降息要求。

鲍威尔周三补充说，他计划在他认为合适的时候离任。这一举动虽不同寻常，但并非史无前例。

鲍威尔可以一直担任美联储理事至2028年。

美国财长贝森特则对鲍威尔的决定作出批评。他告诉福克斯商业频道节目，此举“违反了美联储的所有准则”，并且“侮辱了有望成为下一任美联储主席的沃什”。

鲍威尔继续留任美联储理事，意味着特朗普将无法在七人理事会中安插新人，使得他无法完全如愿地重塑美联储。
