What happened during the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting?
Hello, hello. This is our weekend edition of Relatable, which, as you remember, I'm doing a couple times a month. Thank you, Allie, for allowing me to do this. It's always a good time, and we have interesting subjects. We've got a great show today, I'll tell you. In fact, we've got a special guest later in the show you're not going to want to miss. I promise you it's going to be awesome. So hang with us. Through all of this, it's going to be really, really good. Now, first of all, when this comes out, we'll have had a few more days after the biggest what really is the biggest news event of the last week. And that is the White House Correspondents Dinner shooting. You all remember that this past Saturday night there was a shooting at the Washington, D.C.
Hilton, which is kind of spooky because that's also where President Reagan was shot, actually just outside of that while he was exiting Washington. the building in 1981. And they had the White House Correspondents Dinner, which is a dinner they have every year, I think, just kind of celebrating. They call it celebrating the First Amendment. But all the White House correspondents from all the media outlets are there. And a lot of political figures are there as well. Obviously, the president was there this time. I don't think he went last time. But he was there this time and his wife and a lot of the cabinet secretaries and a lot of members of Congress were there. So it was like twenty five hundred people in this essentially basement ballroom.
How did Jimmy Kimmel's joke about Melania Trump contribute to the conversation?
And as you as was reported, there was a gentleman or not. Actually, gentlemen's not the right way to even say that. There was a scumbag who charged the security area. Now it was in a different level above where the ballroom was.
Why is Hasan Piker's platforming by the New York Times controversial?
So he hadn't gotten to the ballroom, but charged that area and then started shooting and actually shot a Secret Service agent. Luckily it hit their bulletproof vest and they're okay. And then he was tackled by Secret Service and now he's in custody. He actually was arraigned this past week in a hearing. and is going to be charged with attempted assassination of the president, which carries a life sentence. And you can see on this video that's coming up about the chaos that was going on. You can imagine.
What insights can be shared about raising a child with autism?
In fact, I was listening to Bill O'Reilly yesterday and he was talking about he was standing towards the back of the room. He and his son were there and he could hear the shots. But you can see the chaos that's going on and the Secret Service as they come in to protect the president and the other people, what they call protectees that they're protecting. The Speaker of the House was there as well. So it was mayhem. And if you don't know what's going on, chaos is what happens when things like that occur. And, you know, the president got back to the White House safely about 10 o'clock. of Eastern Time. And of course, they canceled the event, although we'll see in just a couple of minutes that President Trump has called for that being rescheduled.
It was the third attempt on President Trump's life. I don't know how many attempts on lives that there have been for presidents in the past. I know that President Ford had a couple attempts on his life, and I'm sure there's a whole lot more that we don't even know about. But to have three attempts on this president's life is pretty amazing and um it's amazing how he responds to it as well i'm always impressed on his uh his his response to that um so uh there's a couple of other things that went on is that as you saw some of this we have a we have a uh full screen that shows a picture of one of the uh president's closest aide, Stephen Miller. And you can see he's protecting his wife along. He's probably got protective people there.
And then behind him to the left, if you're watching this, is Hegseth. And he's standing over his wife as well. And you can see they're facing the stage and the back of where the shooter would come in if he could have gotten through would have been behind them. So they're definitely putting themselves in harm's way.
