1:29Donald Trump is raising major red flags after this purported shooting at the White House
1:35Correspondents' Dinner last night at that Washington, D .C., Hilton.
1:40As soon as the shooting took place, immediately the MAGA influencer started posting things like
1:47this. Tonight is one more reason for the new White House Trump ballroom.
1:52Thank God President Trump is building the White House ballroom.
1:56This is why we need Trump's ballroom.
1:58We need the White House ballroom.
2:00All of Donald Trump's MAGA influencers, immediately, I mean, within nine minutes of the purported
2:06shooting, they started pushing that message.
2:09Then you had MAGA Mike Johnson purportedly running away from the shooting.
2:13But then immediately thereafter, the House Republican official GOP account posts the following, Fight, fight,
2:22fight, with a fist emoji and an American flag.
2:26This is what they're going to do each time now.
2:29Then you had MAGA influencers posting things like this.
2:33Shooter at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
2:35Shooter is dead. Thank you, Secret Service.
2:39And they're taking, like, glam shots of themselves.
2:42I think they then deleted it, but they're doing, like, weird glam shots.
2:45Then you had Dana White basically glorifying what took place.
2:50I mean, Dana White, one of Trump's top allies.
2:53They're doing the UFC fight together in a few months at the White House, apparently,
2:57based on our taxpayer dollars.
3:00That's what they're spending their money on.
3:01Then Dana White's like, this was effing awesome.
3:04I took it all in.
3:05This is effing awesome. So you're saying that a purported shooting at the White House
3:11Correspondents' Dinner is awesome as you're all pushing a message about building the golden ballroom
3:19now and how this shows we need the ballroom.
3:22And then later, I'll show you Donald Trump's, like, and this isn't going to deter
3:26us from our ability to win in Iran.
3:28And I'm, like, watching this, I'm like, what are we talking about?
3:33Can we talk about whether there were serious security breaches that took place at the
3:37White House Correspondents' Dinner? Can we talk about the act that actually happened?
3:40We're immediately going to build golden ballrooms, covering up for the disastrous and catastrophic war
3:46in Iran. You have Dana White, Donald Trump's, like, top supporter and ally.
3:50This was awesome. What, are you going to start doing the fight, fight, fight shoes
3:54again? You're going to start selling the merch?
3:56Is that what's going to happen today?
3:57Here's what Dana White said.
3:59Play this clip. It started getting noisy.
4:01Tables getting flipped over. Guys running in with guns.
4:04And they were screaming, get down.
4:06I didn't get down. It was fucking awesome.
4:09I literally took every minute of it in.
4:11And it was a pretty crazy, unique experience.
4:16So you were on the aisle?
4:17What exactly did you see?
4:18We were sitting right in front of the table.
4:20Okay. Right in front of where the president was.
4:23Yes. And what exactly happened?
4:24So someone got tackled or, like, what?
4:25Nobody got tackled. The guys came in looking for shooters.
4:28And they came toward our table.
4:29I thought the shooter was over by us or something.
4:32But, yeah. So you didn't see the actual attack there, so.
4:36Okay. I didn't. We'll go quick.
4:38Huh? We'll go quick. We'll go quick.
4:53And then right before this all unfolded, Caroline Levitt said the following.
4:58Remember this. Here, play this clip.
5:00Ready to rumble. Is he not?
5:01He is ready to rumble.
5:02I will tell you. This speech tonight will be classic Donald J.
5:07Trump. It'll be funny. It'll be entertaining.
5:10There will be some shots fired.
5:11There will be some shots fired.
5:11tonight on the road. So everyone should tune in.
5:14It's going to be really great.
5:15I'm looking forward to hearing it.
5:17I love it all. And you wrote most of it, you said.
5:19I can't take credit. In true Donald Trump fashion, the man puts his pen to
5:24the paper himself. So it's a lot of his own work.
5:27And then one of the Fox correspondents was calling into Fox after the purported incident
5:34took place. And they seemed to indicate that Caroline Levitt's husband was telling the Fox
5:41host who is calling in, be very careful.
5:44Things are about to go down tonight.
5:46And then the phone, just like the line, just like cuts off.
5:49They're like, it looks like we lost the report or it looks like the reporter's
5:53no longer here. Watch for yourself what takes place.
5:56And you be the judge.
5:57Play this clip. I want to just quickly tell you, I was sitting next to
6:00Caroline Levitt, the press secretary's husband.
6:04He was one of our guests.
6:06He was seated right next to me.
6:07And right as the dinner was starting, the national anthem happened.
6:13And then he kind of leaned over and said, I watched you on TV.
6:16You did a great job.
6:17You need to be very safe.
6:19And he was very serious when he said that to me.
6:21And he kind of looked around the room and he said, you know, sounds like
6:32we lost Aisha's phone there.
6:35And this happens, by the way, especially when you have so many people attempting to
6:40utilize the same cell service at the same time.
6:43I did want to add this while we had a moment.
6:46I was just reading. And by the way, when Donald Trump was escorted out, by
6:52the way, the purported shooter never got into the actual ballroom area where the event
6:58was taking place. It was kind of outside, apparently ran through the magnometers.
7:03That's what they're saying. And never actually got into the room itself.
7:07But then when the secret service was telling Donald Trump, hey, we got to get
7:11up. You got to get up.
7:12Donald Trump couldn't walk straight and just fell flat on his face.
7:16I'm going to do a whole other video after this about Donald Trump's collapsing health.
7:20Watch what I'm going to do in 90 minutes.
7:22You're going to want to watch the next video as well, because I'm going to
7:25compare what happened here. I'm going to talk about Butler, Pennsylvania.
7:29I'm going to talk about how Donald Trump's never produced his medical records.
7:33I'm going to talk about how at the press conference last night, Donald Trump started
7:37falling asleep. But here's Donald Trump falling on the floor when secret service tells him,
7:42you know, you got to get up now.
7:43You got to get up now.
7:44Play this clip. There's the president.
7:59Then you had Stephen Miller, like holding the chest of his pregnant girlfriend.
8:05It almost looks like he's using his pregnant girlfriend as like his pregnant wife, rather,
8:11sorry, as a human shield.
8:14Other weird things that were happening.
8:16We saw a lot of reporters looked like they were kind of taking wine bottles
8:21with them after the shooting.
8:23Like after this incident took place, they all were focused on taking the wine home
8:28for themselves. That's pretty odd.
8:31Talking about the trending topics on social media, the big trending topics were Butler, referring
8:37to Butler, Pennsylvania. Another trending topic was staged.
8:41That was another trending topic yesterday.
8:44You also had Jeanine Pirro, Donald Trump's United States attorney for Washington, D .C., his
8:52top prosecutor in D .C., the Fox host, who's now the top prosecutor.
8:56She was ready to go and make her video.
8:58She had a selfie video ready to go within minutes after this purported shooting.
9:06You I'm at the Washington Hilton.
9:07I've been taken out of the main ballroom after the sound of the shots fired.
9:12The Secret Service is now in charge of this building, this hotel.
9:18I just spoke to Mayor Muriel Bowser.
9:21She is on her way.
9:22And Chief Jeffrey Carroll is on his way.
9:25He will be in charge as soon as he gets here.
9:28And we had Erica Kirk crying and leaving while crying.
9:32You can see for yourself what took place here.
9:33Play this clip. We heard from Wolf Blitzer, though, and lots of reporters like Wolf
9:46Blitzer were saying before the shooting took place, he said that there was more security
9:53at this Washington, D .C.
9:54Hilton than Blitzer says he's ever seen in his entire career going to these White
10:02House Correspondents Dinner events. And Blitzers went to like decades and decades.
10:07And he said the security was very intense.
10:09So you had very intense security there and this still happened.
10:13To me, that should be the questions that we're asking.
10:16If we're doing real journalism, that should be the focus, not time to build a
10:21ballroom or how courageous are you?
10:24Are you so courageous? How are you able to deal with all of these things?
10:28No. Donald Trump is a war criminal.
10:31This doesn't impact. Donald Trump is a sexual predator.
10:34He's a war criminal. This incident doesn't change any of it.
10:38What are we talking about?
10:39I know the press wants to now, the White House Correspondents Dinner, right, you know,
10:44and the press that wanted to celebrate his fascism, right, they now want to gaslight
10:49us and act like, you know, whoa, this is courageous.
10:52This is why we were doing it.
10:54This is heroic. No, stop it.
10:56Just stop it. This is a war criminal.
10:58This is a criminal regime that puts ICE and Border Patrol Gestapo in the streets
11:02to kill our people. This is a regime that's out there engaged in war crimes
11:08and horrible conduct. Anyway, here's what Wolf Blitzer was saying.
11:11Here, play this clip. And others involved with him and what was going on.
11:15So I'm now in the lobby of the Washington Hilton Hotel, and all the people
11:19who were inside are slowly but surely taking the escalator up, and they're getting ready
11:24to leave and see if they could get a ride home one way or another.
11:27The security going into the event tonight was incredible.
11:31I had never seen security around the Washington Hilton Hotel for a White House Correspondents
11:36Association dinner or for any other major dinner as tight as it was tonight.
11:41And I've been to about 30 of these White House Correspondents Association dinners over the
11:46years that I've been with CNN.
11:48And it was just very, very, very intense.
11:52And I have no idea if there were any indications that something like this could
11:57happen. But I know that security was beefing up potentially for something and something happened.
12:03But the shots were fired just outside the door to the ballroom.
12:09The shooter did not get into the ballroom, was shooting one floor up, the stairs
12:15leading to the ballroom. And it was just enormously loud, difficult to comprehend what was
12:24going on. And I'm sure we'll be learning a whole lot more about the suspect,
12:28what was going on, if there was a motive, or whatever.
12:32But when the cops saw me only a few feet away from the shooter, they
12:36threw me to the ground and got on top of me to protect me.
12:40And then after a few minutes, they picked me up and took me away to
12:44a secure room, the men's room, which was not very far away.
12:47Here's this was a tidbit from the New York Times reporter who's at the incident.
12:53I'm one of the small number of journalists traveling with the White House press pool
12:57tonight. We were in a hall just outside the ballroom when the commotion first rang
13:01out. Several things happened in quick succession.
13:04Tuxedoed agents pulled out the guns and began running toward the ballroom.
13:08White jacketed caterers screamed and bolted for stairwells.
13:12Pandemonium reigned as top cabinet officials were evacuated.
13:15Robert Kennedy Jr. and his wife, Cheryl Hines, came out and were ushered into an
13:20elevator. Then Jeanine Pirro emerged.
13:22Then FBI Director Cash Patel came tearing across the hallway with two men in tow.
13:27His girlfriend was hiding in a room with another man who was holding her hand.
13:31Another man who was holding her hand.
13:33Got it. Reporters are about to be taken back into the ballroom.
13:36The show will go on, apparently.
13:38No, the show will not go on, apparently.
13:41And they canceled it. And Donald Trump's like, I wanted the show to go on,
13:45but they told me we couldn't do it.
13:47So we're going to do it in 30 days.
13:49Okay, well, what's happening in 30 days?
13:51Don't we also realize what happened yesterday as well?
13:55And by the way, Donald Trump was basically, he was giving the game away, wasn't
13:59he? I mean, here, right after this incident taking place.
14:03And I said, where the investigation, where the reporter should be focused on is the
14:07incident. What the hell happened?
14:08But Trump immediately uses it to say the following.
14:11He goes, this isn't going to deter me from winning the war in Iran.
14:16Here, play this clip. It doesn't happen to people that don't do anything.
14:19And it's not going to deter me from winning the war in Iran.
14:25I don't know if that had anything to do with it.
14:27I really don't think so, based on what we know.
14:29But we're going to continue to do a great job.
14:33That's all I can do.
14:34Thank you very much. We'll see you tomorrow.
14:37Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
14:42All right, you're okay. Well, Donald, didn't you say that you already won the war
14:47in Iran, that you control the Strait of Hormuz, that American excavators are working with
14:52Iranian excavators to bring all the nuclear dust back?
14:56Didn't you say you've already done regime change and that we don't even need to
14:59be there anymore? But you're basically doing it as a favor, right?
15:02That's what you've been saying.
15:04We all know what happened yesterday, right?
15:06Yesterday, there was supposed to be, based on what Donald Trump was saying, a meeting
15:11in Pakistan between the United States, between Whitcoff and Kushner, who shouldn't be representing the
15:16U .S. at all, but set that aside for a second, and Foreign Minister Aragji
15:20and the Iranian delegation. However, the Iranian delegation made clear that it never wanted to
15:26meet with the United States and Pakistan, that it was going to Pakistan as part
15:29of a bilateral meeting and as part of a trip that it was taking to
15:33Oman, to Pakistan, and to Russia.
15:35That's what Foreign Minister Aragji said.
15:37And then on Market Manipulation Friday, Donald Trump said, oh, we've been invited to have
15:42negotiations in Pakistan. On the Midas Touch Network, we've been saying, that's not true.
15:46Donald Trump is lying. He's manipulating the market again.
15:48Foreign Minister Aragji in Iran saying, I'm just doing a three -country tour.
15:52I'm not meeting with the United States.
15:54We're having no negotiations until the naval blockade is lifted in the United States, and
16:00they stop threatening us during negotiations, and they agree to the 10 -point negotiating framework.
16:05And then the Iranian... foreign minister yesterday morning just left like he said he was
16:10going to leave pakistan and then finished his trip and then donald trump immediately had
16:15to post oh well i'm the one who canceled the delegation it wasn't that foreign
16:21minister iraq just left it was me who ultimately said that we shouldn't show up
16:26in pakistan no the iranians never were going to meet with you in the first
16:29place that's what we've been saying here in the midas touch network over and over
16:33again so yesterday morning before this purported shooting took place in the evening right donald
16:39trump had just been utterly humiliated and exposed for being a liar yet again and
16:44here's what he posted in the morning yesterday i just canceled the trip of my
16:47representatives going is islamabad pakistan what is going is representatives going is islamabad pakistan to
16:55meet with the iranians too much time wasted on travel too much work besides which
17:01there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their leadership nobody knows who's in charge including
17:06them also we have all the cards they have none if they want to talk
17:11all they have to do is call donald j trump all complete lies iran from
17:18the outset said it never was going to meet with the united states and donald
17:21trump lied knowing that iran had a meeting with pakistan to say that we're sending
17:25our negotiators there so that's what happened in the morning so that's why donald trump
17:29was like oh you know afterwards this was about i'm gonna never be deterred from
17:34my mission from iran and then donald trump started saying one of the things that
17:38this shows this shooting shows is why we need a ballroom as well this proves
17:43that we need a ballroom here play this clip and uh we looked at all
17:49of the conditions that took place tonight and i will say you know it's not
17:54a particularly secure building and uh i didn't want to say this but this is
18:01why we have to have all of the attributes of what we're planning at the
18:07white house it's actually a larger room and it's much more secure it's got it's
18:12drone proof it's bulletproof glass we need the ballroom that's why secret service that's why
18:16the military are demanding it they've wanted the ballroom for 150 years for lots of
18:23different reasons but today's uh a little bit different because today we need levels of
18:29security that probably nobody's ever seen before and so immediately after the shooting you're already
18:35talking about this shows why you need to build a golden ballroom also to share
18:40this with you as well before donald trump flew back to washington dc here's what
18:45he was saying when he was asked well didn't you say on friday you were
18:50going to send whitkoff and kushner to pakistan to meet with iran so did you
18:54just totally lie and then he lies again because all this guy does is don't
18:59you understand the whole thing is a con every aspect of everything with this guy
19:02here play this clip what have you heard from pakistan the iran's foreign minister was
19:07in pakistan yesterday night i think pakistan is terrific i think the field marshal is
19:12fantastic i think the prime minister of pakistan is great and you know they'd like
19:18to see something happen but we're not going to be traveling 15 16 hours to
19:23to have a meeting with people that nobody ever heard of what changed to make
19:28you make that decision too much travel when they say the meeting's scheduled for tuesday
19:32i said tuesday that's a long time from now but when you get right down
19:36to it it's a lot of traveling no we don't want to do that they're
19:43all very competent all three those are three good but they weren't uh meeting with
19:48the leader of the country they were meeting with other people and i said we're
19:53just not going to do too much traveling takes too long too expensive i'm a
19:57very cost -conscious person and speaking about everything is a lie as well nbc exclusively
20:04reported yesterday as well iran caused more extensive damage to u .s military bases than
20:10publicly disclosed by centcom trump's turned centcom and our military also into total liars u
20:17.s bases and equipment across the middle east came under attack including from an iranian
20:21f5 despite american air defense and repairs could cost billions of dollars american military bases
20:28and other equipment in the persian gulf region suffered extensive damage from iranian strikes that
20:33is far worse than publicly acknowledged and is expected to cost billions of dollars to
20:38repair according to three u .s officials two congressional aides and another person familiar with
20:43the damage the iranian regime swiftly retaliated after the trump administration attacked on february 28th
20:49hitting dozens of targets across u .s military bases in seven middle east countries those
20:54attacks struck warehouses command headquarters aircraft hangars satellite communication infrastructure runways high -end radar systems
21:01and dozens of aircraft according to u .s officials and an assessment by the american
21:06enterprise institute a conservative think tank in washington dc in the initial days of the
21:11war iranian f5 fighter jets bombed the u .s base camp in kuwait despite the
21:16base having air defenses a rare breach that marked the first time an enemy fixed
21:21wing aircraft had struck an american military base in years according to two of the
21:25u .s officials also yesterday it was being reported that iran has another secret nuclear
21:31facility near its isfahan facility isfahan facility isfahan facility isfahan facility Thank you.
21:34It's even deeper underground that the United States likely hasn't even touched yet, where Iran
21:40may be capable of making 100 nuclear bombs if it enriches the uranium to weapons
21:48grade, which at this stage, why wouldn't it do that based on its observations of
21:54how the United States has handled negotiations or not handled it at all?
22:02So lots of people are saying perhaps this delay, this Donald Trump delaying things two
22:10weeks, two weeks, is allowing Iran right now to create weapons grade nuclear weapons the
22:16same way Donald Trump allowed Kim Jong -un to get nuclear weapons.
22:19And then we just don't talk about that anymore, right?
22:22Under Obama, that's all we talked about.
22:24Ballistic missile tests, ballistic missile tests are happening by Kim Jong -un.
22:27That shows Obama's weakness. Donald Trump just basically allowed Kim Jong -un to get nuclear
22:32weapons. Oh, and now we're not supposed to talk about it.
22:34So why am I bringing this?
22:36Why did I bring all of that up right now as well?
22:38Oh, by the way, I could bring up as well that Donald Trump said that
22:41he was going to give the Falkland Islands to Argentina, stripping it from UK sovereignty
22:47and basically ignoring the whole 1982 Falkland Island war.
22:52And the referendums where the Falkland Islands stated they want to be with the United
22:56Kingdom. And now Donald Trump has created a major diplomatic issue a la Trump saying
23:01he wants to seize Greenland from Denmark.
23:04That's basically like Trump saying, I'm going to seize the Falkland Islands from the UK
23:09when the Falkland Islands wants to be with the UK and give it to Javier
23:12Malay, Trump's little puppet dictator in Argentina.
23:15So we have all this mess happening.
23:17And then with all that mess happening last night at the White House Correspondents Dinner,
23:22you have this and you have all of those things that I was just showing
23:25you where the influencers got their marching orders right away.
23:29And they were like, we need a ballroom.
23:31We need a ballroom. Look, Donald Trump's so courageous.
23:33Look, Donald Trump is going to still win Iran, even though he's facing all of
23:38these assassination attempts now. All right.
