26.04.2026The Day the Shooter Left a Manifesto

The day was dominated by the aftermath of the assassination attempt on President Trump at the White House correspondents' dinner. Throughout the day, new details emerged: the suspect was identified as a 31-year-old California man, a teacher, who left a manifesto and may have targeted other officials. Trump was evacuated, and the suspect was arrested. Finnish media covered the story extensively, with multiple outlets providing minute-by-minute accounts, video footage, and analysis. In the afternoon, the acting attorney general stated the suspect intended to assassinate other high-ranking officials. Trump later commented that the shooter 'hates Christians.' Meanwhile, other stories developed: Helsingin Sanomat reported on Finland deporting a mother and son to Russia despite their opposition to the war, and on a 70-year-old midwife returning from retirement due to staff shortages. MV-lehti continued its analysis comparing Palantir's AI ambitions to Nazi crimes. Political news included SDP's Tuppurainen calling for Orpo's removal, and Kokoomus's problem with young women in Helsinki.
