Mad Men actress January Jones has sparked backlash after posting a conspiracy theory accusing President Donald Trump and the U.S. government of staging the assassination attempt that occurred at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday night.
The shooting took place on Saturday at the Washington Hilton, where President Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, and Vice President JD Vance were attending the annual black-tie event.
Despite the clear evidence of a politically motivated attack by a left-wing activist, complete with a manifesto confessing his motives, Jones, best known for her role as Betty Draper on Mad Men, mocked the deadly incident as a fabricated stunt orchestrated by the Trump administration to escape a “boring dinner party.”
“Do you have a boring dinner party coming up, and lots of losers and fake friends have rsvp’d?” Jones began.
“Are you looking for help staging a small scale low risk assassination attempt to get out of it? Look no further, the US Government is your man, call us now at 1-800-wehate-americans,” the actress wrote in an Instagram Stories post after the attack.

The post quickly drew condemnation from conservatives who pointed out the disturbing pattern of leftists rushing to label any violence against Trump or people on the right as “staged” instead of just condemning the actual shooter.
Jones is not the only celebrity pushing the conspiracy.
Actress Mia Farrow wrote on Bluesky that the attack may have been staged to boost Trump’s approval ratings.
“He is forcing us to wonder ‘he has lost a war he is unable to end & is now so desperate to raise his approval ratings, would he …..’ ?” Farrow wrote on BlueSky.

According to law enforcement, 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California, a teacher who had attended a “No Kings” anti-Trump protest, rushed past security checkpoints armed with a shotgun, handgun, and multiple knives.
Allen, who described himself in a 1,000-word manifesto sent to family members just minutes before the attack as the “Friendly Federal Assassin,” complained about Trump’s policies and expressed hatred toward Christians and the administration.
He was taken into custody at the scene and charged on Monday with attempting to assassinate the president, along with additional federal counts, including assault on a federal officer.
One Secret Service agent was shot but was saved by his bulletproof vest and is reported to be in stable condition.
Trump and all other attendees were unharmed.
