जैसे ही शनिवार को White House Correspondents' dinner के दौरान Washington Hilton होटल में फायरिंग की खबर आई, सोशल मीडिया पर साजिश की थ्योरियों (conspiracy theories) की बाढ़ आ गई। इसकी उम्मीद तो थी, लेकिन कुछ लोगों का कहना है कि अब समीकरण बदल रहे हैं, क्योंकि ये थ्योरियां न केवल दक्षिणपंथी खातों से, बल्कि उदारवादियों और प्रगतिशिलों की ओर से भी आ रही हैं जो अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति Donald Trump की आलोचना करते हैं।

District of Columbia पुलिस विभाग के प्रमुख ने कहा कि जांचकर्ताओं का मानना है कि संदिग्ध Вашингтон Hilton होटल में एक मेहमान था, जहां वार्षिक डिनर आयोजित किया जा रहा था, लेकिन अभी तक किसी मकसद का पता नहीं चला है।

• वॉशिंगटन में एक डिनर के दौरान हुई शूटिंग के संदिग्ध व्यक्ति पर पूर्व राष्ट्रपति ट्रंप की हत्या के प्रयास का आरोप लगाया गया है।

• हिंकली का कहना है कि वॉशिंगटन हिल्टन में 'बुरी चीजें होती रहती हैं' और यह 'बड़े आयोजन करने के लिए सुरक्षित जगह नहीं थी'। • जिस व्यक्ति ने 1981 में वॉशिंगटन हिल्टन में रोनाल्ड रीगन को गोली मारी थी, उसने कहा कि डोनाल्ड ट्रंप और राष्ट्रपति प्रशासन के वरिष्ठ सदस्यों की उपस्थिति वाले एक प्रतिष्ठित मीडिया गाला के दौरान शनिवार को होटल में हुई फायरिंग के बारे में जानना उसके लिए "डरावना" (spooky) था। • सोमवार को प्रकाशित TMZ के साथ एक इंटरव्यू में, जॉन हिंकली जूनियर ने यह भी गौर किया कि होटल में "बुरी चीजें होती रहती हैं" और उनका मानना था कि यह "बड़े आयोजन करने के लिए बिल्कुल भी सुरक्षित जगह नहीं थी"।

विशेषज्ञों का कहना है कि सरकार और मीडिया के प्रति गहरे अविश्वास के समय में कोई भी राजनीतिक दल साजिशों से अछूता नहीं है। शनिवार को जब एक हथियारबंद व्यक्ति ने उस बॉलरूम में घुसने की कोशिश की जहाँ Donald Trump वाइट हाउस के पत्रकारों को संबोधित करने वाले थे, तो तुरंत इस बात को लेकर साजिशी सिद्धांत फैल गए कि क्या यह आयोजन पूर्व-नियोजित (staged) था। राजनीतिक संस्थानों, मीडिया और स्वयं राष्ट्रपति के प्रति गहरे अविश्वास और अत्यधिक विभाजित राजनीति के इस दौर में, इस तरह की बयानबाजी दोनों पक्षों की एक सामान्य बात बन गई है। आगे पढ़ें...
