Melania Trump is in a league of her own when it comes to fashion and class. No wonder the left hates her so much. No one could even come close.

Peter Girnus 🦅@gothburz·
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.

@TheMuppetPastor Some people are just sick. Some go through trauma and come out the other side better people. Others go through trauma and come out just as bad or worse than the person who traumatized them. Lots of the 1st and 3rd types on social media unfortunately.

I’m noticing some people understand trauma and others don’t. The Erika Kirk situation is a great reminder. If you haven’t felt it, then you wont understand how pain shapes behavior. So many expect normal things from a broken mind. (I do accept the notion that a person should take a year off to recover from trauma before taking on a company, but that is a rare objective critique). However, the sad reality is that many people who have indeed experienced trauma and know how it twists the brain refuse to extend an ounce of grace to another with the same experience. Jesus taught a parable of a servant who was forgiven an impossible debt, yet couldn’t extend grace to someone who owed him a small amount of money. It didn’t end well for the unforgiving servant.

Ohh my god it’s true California Democrats wrote in the Billionaires Tax Bill they can amend the tax to apply to all California residents by a simply 2/3 majority with no votes needed from residents The legislative authority clause allows future 2/3 majority amendments by the Legislature (no voter approval needed) if they further the Act’s purposes This enables broadening, like lowering thresholds to include more people or making it recurring. This turns the “Billionaire Tax” into something substantially wider Section 50308 defines the scope (who qualifies as an “applicable individual”) Meaning everyone This bill is a Trojan horse

@PinoAmericano Honestly I sometimes wonder if this is the end goal. As soon as we set this precident, it’s going to be weaponized against us. Rights are easy to give up during times like this, but require tremendous sacrifice to get back.

The shooter went to Christian schools, he played sports was active in this community did great in college went to Bible studies and then he graduated and started developing stuff and video games and whatever. He then joined a progressive advocacy organization called the wide awakes which have ties for Soros and Obama. But that is not the worst part, the worst part is actually what happened afterwards. There is no web developer or game developer that is not on discord and so I wanna know what happened during the five years that he was on discord where he went to the No Kings rally bought guns and hid them from his parents until he finally tried to shoot up the correspondents dinner. Discord is where the radicalization is occurring. Just my professional stay at home mom opinion lol.

@jason_howerton The amount of people who want to divide Jesus into one or the other is mind blowing. Some minimize the wages of sin and others want total condemnation, as if any of us are without fault.

There’s a fire that rages in me when people, especially politicians, use Jesus as a mascot for their ideology. Jesus Christ would love “gay kids,” without question, just as we are called to do. But He would love them into righteousness, He would not cheer them into hell like people like this do. When Jesus told the Pharisees to “cast the first stone” at the woman who committed adultery, he didn’t tell the woman “you are fine the way you are.” He said, “go and sin no more.” Jesus didn’t die the most excruciating death imaginable so we can stay trapped in perpetual sin. He died so that we may have NEW LIFE through Him. We are called to become new creations, not to use his grace as a get out of jail free card. Jesus is LORD, not your mascot.

I’m sick and disgusted by this feminized Jesus they’re pushing — some pacifist hippie who just smiles, tolerates evil, and preaches weak “peace and love.” Jesus is the ultimate definition of what EVERY man should strive to be: bold, righteous, and fierce for justice. He flipped tables in holy rage. He made a whip and drove out the corrupt. He called the Pharisees “brood of vipers,” “whitewashed tombs,” and sons of hell, straight to their faces, and insulted hypocrites who deserved it without apology. No more emasculating the King of Kings. Real men follow the real Christ: unapologetic, confrontational against wickedness, standing tall for truth.

@ANDREAKRUS73529 @TobiasJames2000 @AlexDuncanTX I would categorize that as exasperation from someone who loved them. Hebrews 12:6 even says the Lord disciplines those he loves. Have you never been rebuked by a parent? Do they stop loving you when you get it wrong?

@ConstantlyWTF @TobiasJames2000 @AlexDuncanTX Mat 17:17, "Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me." These words Jesus spoke to His disciples. Are they part of your narrative?

Oh, I get it. You subscribe to penal substitutionary atonement and legal penalty. You see “fierce justice” and I see incomprehensible love and mercy that He went willingly to the cross to pay the penalty for my sins. Justice compels. Love chooses. “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.” (John 13:34)

@ConstantlyWTF @AlexDuncanTX You’re still missing it. Justice was served. Pure grace would have meant that Jesus didn’t have to die on the cross. But because God is just, someone had to pay the price for sin. Jesus suffered and died. Justice was served. Those who reject Jesus will get justice without grace.

@DRomulus79303 @AlexDuncanTX He tolerates us. I’m a sinner. I need His forgiveness constantly. Justice would be dealing with me as I deserve. Mercy is Him renewing His grace continually. Revelation is coming. 2 Peter 3:9 is the reason it hasn’t yet.

Jesus came to pay the penalty for our sin. Yet we all still struggle until the fullness of His return and should bear with one another and forgive one another as the Lord has forgiven us (Colossians 3:13). That doesn’t mean tolerating sin. It just also doesn’t mean we get to reject the parts of Jesus that dont flip tables.

@ConstantlyWTF @AlexDuncanTX I’m all for Christ loving His sheep. However, to those who turn away a child of God? To misguide them? A millstone. To those who hate Him? Cursed unto the thousandth generation. Sin has no presence before Him. Nor any place in the age to come. Be not discouraged for His promise.
