The man who authorities say tried to storm the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner with guns and knives while President Donald Trump was in attendance is due in court to face federal charges. Saturday night's chaotic encounter resulted in shots being fired, Trump being rushed off the stage and guests ducking for cover underneath their tables. Authorities say Cole Tomas Allen, of Torrance, California, was taken into custody after the shooting and is being charged Monday in federal court in Washington. It's unclear if he has a lawyer who could speak on his behalf. Authorities say an officer wearing a bullet-resistant vest was shot in the vest but is expected to recover.

Virginia's Supreme Court is considering whether a voter-approved redistricting amendment complied with the state's constitutional requirements. A Republican challenge to the map contends that the Democratic-led General Assembly violated procedural requirements by placing the constitutional amendment before voters to authorize mid-decade redistricting. On Monday, arguments before the court focused on whether the legislature's initial vote happened before last fall's election, since early voting was already underway. If the court agrees that lawmakers broke the rules, it could invalidate the amendment and render last week’s statewide vote meaningless. Democrats hope to win as many as four additional U.S. House seats under the new Virginia map.
