Trump Rushed Off Stage At White House Correspondents’ Dinner

President Donald Trump and members of his Cabinet were rushed out and evacuated on Saturday night after shots were fired at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C.

Vice President JD Vance and members of Trump’s Cabinet, who were also in attendance, were also rushed out. Also among the officials in the room for this dinner was the acting attorney general, Todd Blanche.

The White House press pool, the group of reporters that travels with the president, is reporting that the president is still at the Washington hotel that serves as the setting for the correspondent’s dinner. “The pool is still at the Hilton as of 8:56, which means POTUS hadn’t departed yet,” according to the pool report.

 

A source told CNN that Trump is safe. According to an administration official, Cabinet members are OK as well.

The Secret Service whisked President Trump off the stage. Authorities detained the shooter.

 

 

“In addition to the president, First Lady and Vice President, many members of the president’s cabinet and senior staff were in attendance at the dinner. Among the attendees: Scott Bessent, the Treasury secretary; Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence; Sean Duffy, the transportation secretary; Karoline Leavitt, the press secretary; Steven Cheung, the White House communications director; and Kash Patel, the director of the F.B.I.,” the New York Times reported.

“Right now, we are praying for the safety of President Trump and the members of the administration attending the White House Correspondents Association Dinner after gunshots were fired. We are hearing reports the shooter is detained and President Trump will be returning to dinner. We are continuing to monitor the situation and will provide updates as more information becomes available,” Republican Rep. Nancy Mace said.
