Trump Presents King Charles With Autographed Copy Of Declaration Of Independence buff.ly/zsX9ctk

I am a senior coordinating producer for the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. I have worked eleven of these. I was backstage at the Washington Hilton when the shots were fired. The first thing I heard was not the gunfire. It was glass. A champagne flute hit the floor of the International Ballroom at approximately 9:47 PM. Then a second. Then the sound that I have since been told was a 12-gauge shotgun, which from inside the ballroom sounded like a heavy door slamming in a parking garage. Then the Secret Service moved. They moved the President, the Vice President, the First Lady through the east corridor in under ninety seconds, which is protocol, which is practiced, which is the one part of the evening that worked exactly as it was designed. Everything else was improvised. I know this because I ordered the wine. 94 tables. Two bottles per table. 188 bottles of a Willamette Valley pinot noir that the Association selected in February after a tasting committee spent three meetings debating between Oregon and Burgundy. Oregon won. The budget was $14,200. I signed the invoice. I can tell you the vintage. I can tell you the distributor. I can tell you the per-bottle cost because I negotiated it down from $89 to $76. What I cannot tell you is how 147 of those bottles left the building during an active shooter evacuation. I can tell you what I saw. A correspondent from a network I will not name picked up two bottles on her way to the east exit. Full bottles. One in each hand. She was wearing heels and she did not spill. A man in a tuxedo tucked one inside his jacket the way you'd shoplift a paperback at an airport bookstore. A woman picked up a bottle, looked at the label, put it back, and took a different one. She checked the vintage. During an evacuation. That's editorial judgment under pressure. The theme of the dinner was "A Free Press for a Free People." The banners were still hanging when the evacuation began. I know because I hung them. Twenty-three banners, navy blue, gold serif lettering, $11,400 for the set. They were still hanging when 2,600 guests were directed to the exits by Secret Service agents, one of whom had just taken a shotgun round in his ballistic vest and walked to the ambulance on his own feet. The agent's vest costs approximately $800. The wine that left the building was worth $11,172 at Association cost. At restaurant markup, roughly $29,000. The guests saved more in wine than the vest that saved the agent. That's priority. The video went viral by 10:15 PM. Not the video of the evacuation. Not the Secret Service response. The wine. Three guests in formalwear grabbing bottles off white tablecloths while being told to move toward the exits, while a man with a shotgun stood in the same motor entrance where John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan 45 years ago. A woman near the service entrance was crying. She said "I just wanna go home." She was not holding wine. She was holding her phone. She was the only person I saw that night who looked afraid rather than inconvenienced. That's the distinction. The rest of the ballroom did not look afraid. They looked interrupted. An active shooter at the WHCD is a logistical problem. The dinner was disrupted. The timeline was off. The after-party at the French Ambassador's residence would need to be rescheduled. These are contingency matters. Contingency matters have solutions. Fear is for people who attend events without security details. I have produced eleven of these dinners. I have managed seating charts that require diplomatic-grade negotiations. I have handled comedians, cabinet secretaries, network anchors, and the editor of a major newspaper who once threatened to leave because his table was behind a column. I have never, in eleven years, seen a guest leave a $76 bottle on the table during an evacuation. I have also never seen a guest check the label first. Both observations are consistent. The bottle is worth taking. The evacuation is worth surviving. The instinct is to do both simultaneously. 188 bottles placed. 41 recovered. 147 unaccounted for. One agent shot. Zero guests injured. Zero bottles broken. A free press for a free people. The press is free. The wine was $76 a bottle. They took it anyway.

Nothing infuriates an uninformed Congressional Dem more than when they realize they voluntarily triggered a debate with someone who actually knows what they are talking about, reads federal statute and adheres to Supreme Court precedent. Today’s self-implosion by @rosadelauro was quite remarkable to witness. Without apology or regret, I will always adhere to the best available reading of federal statute pursuant to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Loper Bright.

Old KMART Commercials and no one was offended…

@nicksortor King Charles is a faux king idiot!

🚨 NOW: King Charles has a PRESIDENTIAL-level motorcade rolling through DC right now We now have an ACTUAL king on our soil, but there are NO SIGNS of any "No Kings" protests anywhere in the nation right now. Interesting how that works!

Second day of the Ukrainian rent boy trial. Where are you @BBCNews @DailyMail @GBNEWS @guardiannews @Channel4News you fucking cowards HERES WHAT I HEARD… ☕️

"We are only now emerging from ten years of extreme psychopathic gaslighting." — Michael Shellenberger The left didn't drift. It was dragged 40–60% further left by college-educated elites running the most powerful propaganda machine in human history.

@DRPOOLQ17 No, she should get the firing squad.

🚨 BREAKING: Governor DeSantis is calling for the IMMEDIATE IMPEACHMENT of Judge Tiffany Baker. Judge Baker released a child rapist who was a KNOWN danger to society. While out on bail, the rapist tortured and killed a 5 year old little girl. Should she be impeached?

Indian professor Jayant Bhandari tells the truth about Indians

OBSTRUCTION: Thune's Senate is blocking 100+ Trump nominees, refused to fund the Secret Service for 72 days despite a 3rd assassination attempt, and killed the Save America Act that 85% of Americans support. America is at war. Senate Republicans have the power to fix every one of these failures & are choosing not to. That is not a conference. That is an obstruction operation.

Thune is a neocon. When you realize neocons are globalists, R Party politics begin to make sense. The Save America Act would substantially end D cheating in elections, & they would never win a majority in Congress, or POTUS, again. Every D politician is a globalist. Globalist corporations & oligarchs provide over 80% of globalist politician (D & R) via PACs & smurfing. Globalists also fund the overwhelming majority of lobbyist funding. There is no profit motive in being a nationalist or a populist. Globalist buy elections & politicians.

Why does Leader Thune keep bending the knee to Schumer? Money? Blackmail? What is it.

🚨 WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GENERATION?! A 15-year-old demon named Malakiah Harris allegedly stabbed a 13-year-old girl, Savannah Copeland, 93 TIMES on a trail near Knoxville, Tennessee… then BRAGGED that it was his “first body.” 💀😡 She wasn’t a threat. She was just a kid. He’s screaming self-defense while they charge him as an adult for first-degree murder. This beautiful, artistic 13-year-old girl had her entire future SLAUGHTERED in cold blood. Her family is shattered. How are kids this young out here moving like psychopaths? Society is 100% cooked. We failed somewhere BAD.

@Savakzadeh @POTUS @netanyahu @mossad_fa @PahlaviComms @FoxNews @foxnewspolitics @USABehFarsi Gayatollah is dead.

BREAKING: The Islamic Republic once again accidentally confirms that MOJTABA KHAMENEI, is in fact dead. They unveiled a mural of all the leaders that have been “martyred” in Mashhad, the birth city of the Khamenei’s. They probably didn’t expect anyone would see this footage.

We were there front and center. That venue wasn’t built to accommodate an event with the line of succession for the U.S. government. After witnessing last night, drop the TDS and build the White House ballroom for events exactly like these.

After the latest assassination attempt, I finally understand why the left wants gun control so bad…

Luigi Leftism is a serious problem

@HJB_News__ It bought more boats...

Apparently this is footage on French beaches last night of migrants boarding boats to get over to the UK. Was the £662 million spent a few days ago to stop this money well spent?

Fact check this because it seems fake… There is 1 nonprofit/NGO in America for every 180 US citizens. There is $11,000 handled by nonprofits/NGOs for every 1 US citizen. I couldn’t believe it myself. Imagine the fraud. We’re being robbed. It all needs to be shutdown.

.@IBM, and their racist CEO, should be stripped of all US government contracts.

I’m balling my eyes out. President Trump “ I want to live to make this country great. That’s why I want to live” Nobody will ever be like Trump America is so blessed 🙏
