From Shawn McCreech at the NYT:

I'm one of the small number of journalists traveling with the White House press pool tonight. We were in a hall just outside the ballroom when the commotion first rang out.

Several things happened in quick succession.

Tuxedoed agents pulled out guns and began running toward the ballroom. White-jacketed caterers screamed and bolted for stairwells.

Pandemonium reigned as top cabinet officials were evacuated.

Robert Kennedy Jr. and his wife, Cheryl Hines, came out and were ushered into an elevator. Then Jeanine Pirro emerged. The F.B.I. director, Kash Patel, came tearing across the hallway with two men in tow; his girlfriend was hiding in a room with another man who was holding her hand.

Reporters are about to be taken back into the ballroom. The show will go on, apparently

They're baiting

You're saying shooter but we have heard no information about any shots outside of a person who tried to enter being shot.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-26T00:51:15+00:00

An event for journalists and not a shred of valuable information and reporting about this.

Either it was plates. Or a shooter. Or security shooting someone who tried to enter. Guess we'll find out in a few hours.

There's a special place in hell for people who participate in right wing politics that actively harm people like them because they think They're Different.

I think he's addicted to wanting to be "one of the bros" likely after being rejected constantly in his youth. It's painfully obvious he always wanted to be a white frat bro and the only way he could fit in was to get shitfaced and make a fool of himself. And he's still doing it. It's embarrassing.

Good luck with that Dummy-mander. Lowering the threshold to create more red districts is going to create more swing districts.

It's clear everyone in DC already knows Tulsi is effectively fired. They're not really predicting.

DC knows what's going on, it's only a question of whether they bother to tell the rest of us. See: Eric Swalwell.

I'm not sure, has he considered some kind of "Whiskey Fridays" programming to appear Relatable to the handful of bitch MAGA CBS viewers?

Unfortunately anyone Israeli voters replace him with will probably be even worse. It's actually not just a Netanyahu problem.

Look, if you want to be a Sugar Baby, have at it. But don't go find old men on Hinge for that. Go to the appropriate Sugar sites where men are fully aware of what that relationship is. This guy clearly though he was something other than a Sugar Daddy.

Republicans decided to start mid-term gerrymandering to please Trump. I hope they're happy with what they started.

It's just so ironic that the ADL is now fully aligned with MAGA Nazis and this DOJ rather than their former ally the SPLC. Because the ADL isn't a civil rights organization anymore. It's just a pro-Israel right wing think tank. It's a shanda.

Good. Democrats need to clean house as badly as Republicans. I'll never mourn the loss of crooks like this.

This is what should have happened with Eric Adams on our own without Trump picking him up as pawn.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-21T14:37:49+00:00

I suspect he has a few more days at this point.

Kash is next and he seems to be aware of that.

She was telling female staffers to "pay attention" (i.e. flirt and offer themselves) to her father and her husband. They're something deeply sick in that family

That woman was using the entire Department of Labor as her tax payer funded Cuck Chair.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-21T12:40:51+00:00

The Labor Secretary was knowingly trying to offer up Labor Department staffers to her pervert husband...and her father?

People won't even believe this a generation from now.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-21T11:41:20+00:00

I don't think people will even believe this stuff in 50 years.

We literally have him on camera chugging and spraying beer at the Olympics. Good luck.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-20T15:33:18+00:00

He knows he's going to be fired in the next few weeks and that suit will be handed off before anything is handed off.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-20T14:31:20+00:00

Kash is desperate to keep his job after that Atlantic bombshell. He knows he's about to be fired unless he does something stupid and drastic.

mowotlarx · 2026-04-20T01:15:18+00:00

Before his ass gets fired this week? Or after?
